How George Floyd Single-Handedly Eradicated COVID-19

Published

How could the COVID-19 obsessed media cheat on their main squeeze with Black Lives Matter?

Roughly a little more than a week ago if you just as much as wiggled your little toe you would catch COVID-19 and fall over instantaneously. BAM! DEAD! And grandma too. People were scared to leave their houses and apartments. Your trained German Sheppard wouldn’t even give you his paw anymore. Everyone was on lock-down from this mysterious killer novel virus. Everyone was hanging on every word that came from so called medical professionals, experts in the field of epidemiology. So for weeks we huddled in place and posted on social media stay home stay safe. If you don’t want to wear a mask, wear it for grandma, wear it out of respect for others, wear it because the godd*@n government told you to. So for weeks we obediently followed instructions.

When time to come out of forced hibernation, the powers that be said a few more weeks. We bent the curve as they were saying so the hospitals weren’t overrun. They weren’t. Then we had to wait to reduce the number of new infections. They were reduced. Then we had to get more ventilators. Done. Then we had to get more PPE (personal protective equipment). Check. Then we needed more testing kits. No problem. Then they told us we had to wait for the next coming of Jesus! The goal posts were moving like Candlestick Park in an earthquake. People were getting restless and wanting to get back to a regular way of life. Every Democrat mayor or governor seemed hell bent on keeping everyone unnecessarily brutally on lock-down. The same governors and mayors were frequently breaking their own lock-down executive orders. Lisa Lightfoot Mayor of Chicago rudely said if anyone disobeyed her orders they would face the law and jail time. She shutdown barbers and hair salons. Then she went to a hair salon to get her hair done. Oh that’s different. Governor Pritzker of Illinois flew his family to Florida amid his strict lock-down orders. When asked about it by the press he obfuscated by saying family should be kept out of politics. New York Mayor Big Bird De Blasio was caught 11 miles from his residence enjoying time with his wife and consistently going to a gym when gyms for us regular folk were off limits. Michelle Obama gave a PSA on staying home and staying safe to only leave for essentials, food, water and medical aid. The next day former President Barack Obama was spotted on the golf course having a blast. And so on, and so on.

By this time there is approximately 40 million people out of work who’ve applied for unemployment. People are losing their businesses, jobs and all livelihoods. At this point to the trained nose one could smell BS. All the expert predictions were wrong. The goals kept changing. Red states were opening and blue states and cities had the boot on the proverbial neck of the people not letting them earn a living.

The protests began because people wanted to go back to work. The peaceful protests began. 2nd Amendment protests for the first amendment rights with gun-toting patriots. These protests started peaceful and ended peaceful. But you would not know that from the hideous left-wing  fake news media. The protesters were disparaged and called every name in the book. They were called murders. They were called far right wingers. They were branded as aggressive. All while peacefully, very peacefully exercising their first amendment rights. Gretchen Whitmer Governor of Michigan and Joe Biden’s possible vice presidential candidate, was one of the worst and most stringent in her zeal to lock down her constituents and make them pay or go to jail if they did not obey.

Governor Whitmer met her match with 77 year old Michigan Barber Karl Manke. He refused to stay shut down. He said he worked all of his life without help from the government and that’s what he will continue to do. Karl built a large following of supporters and became somewhat of a first amendment protest star. A court battle ensued and they took his license to operate. Karl was unmoved and said he will continue to cut hair despite the ruling. Karl took the fight to the Michigan supreme court and won a unanimous 7-0 decision. Smiles and celebrations all around.

It is unconstitutional to tell someone they cannot work to earn a living, it is unconstitutional to tell someone they cannot go to church and worship, it is unconstitutional to tell someone they cannot visit their significant other if they are not married. Governor Whitmer herself broke her own lock-down orders going to her vacation home and her husband going boating. Do as I say not as I do.

Now comes the untimely death of George Floyd who was brutally killed by a Minnesota Police Officer while seemingly not resisting arrest. This touched off protests and riots lead by Black Lives Matter and infiltrated by Antifa and many more paid rabble-rousers. This protest movement has gone worldwide and has put pressure on all organizations and police forces to bow to the George Soros backed Black Lives Matter community activists groups. So to get in on the money, prestige and political black pandering these protests are lauded by the media, liberals and Democrat politicians. There has been mass looting, rioting, death and mayhem. But news show after show go out of their way to stress how peaceful the marches are and only a few rioters and looters. Police had to evacuate a police precinct in New York because it got burned down. The protest over the wrongful death of a black man in police custody lead to the wrongful death of 5 more blacks at the hands of the rioters. These 5 are not lauded and praised because to be lauded and praised you have to be killed by a white person. If a black person kills you, YOUR BLACK LIFE DOESN’T MATTER!

Once these protests started the COVID-19 mindful leaders and press seemed to all but forget about the virus that was dominating every second of media airspace. COVID19 was being used as a cudgel  against Donald Trump. The effects of the virus was waning, people were going back to work, the numbers were a lie, the goals kept moving and most of all it was unconstitutional. So George Floyd’s untimely death was the new celebrity cause de jour for everyone to act like they are woke or politically engaged and part of the IN-CROWD! Out the window goes COVID-19 may GOD rest it’s soul.

We have went from recounts, to investigations, to Ukraine impeachments, to COVID-19 to racism, Black Lives Matter & George Floyd. All morphed into a club to beat Donald Trump to death with. But the Teflon Don is a fighter. The naysayers were quoting all of the death numbers from covid-19 and the jobless numbers and predicting a rise in unemployment to 20% and 7 million more job losses. What they got was 2.5 million jobs ADDED and the unemployment rate DROPPING to 13.3%. Oh well back to the drawing board. The Wile E. Coyote Democrats need a new bomb to catch the roadrunner POTUS #45!

President Donald J. Trump on Israel and Iran: “Two Countries Don’t Know What the F*** They’re Doing.”

Published

Trump’s Blunt Rebuke of Israel and Iran: A Strategic Display of Control Amid Ceasefire Chaos

On June 24, 2025, President Donald J. Trump delivered a characteristically unfiltered assessment of the faltering ceasefire between Israel and Iran, declaring, “Two countries don’t know what the f*** they’re doing.” The comment, made to reporters as he departed for a NATO summit, underscored his frustration with both nations for violating a fragile truce brokered just a day earlier on June 23, 2025. Far from a mere outburst, Trump’s statement and the actions surrounding it reveal a calculated approach to reasserting U.S. influence over a volatile Middle East conflict, showcasing his ability to navigate and control a complex geopolitical crisis.

The Context: A Ceasefire Undermined

The ceasefire, intended to de-escalate tensions between Israel and Iran, was a significant diplomatic achievement for the Trump administration, signaling a potential pause in a conflict that has long threatened regional stability. However, within hours, Iran launched a strike that killed several people, prompting Israel to respond with a “symbolic attack” on the same day. These violations unraveled the truce, drawing global attention and risking further escalation, particularly given Iran’s nuclear ambitions and Israel’s military resolve.

Trump’s blunt remark came in response to this rapid deterioration. He expressed particular displeasure with Israel, noting that it “unloaded” on Iran shortly after the agreement, undermining the deal he had championed. “I’m really unhappy with Israel,” he told reporters, a rare public rebuke of a key U.S. ally. Yet, his criticism extended to both parties, reflecting his view that their tit-for-tat actions lacked strategic clarity and jeopardized a cycle of violence.

Why Trump Said It: A Strategic Calculus

Trump’s choice of words was no accident. His provocative language served multiple purposes, each reinforcing his ability to steer the situation:

  1. Reasserting U.S. Authority: By publicly chastising both Israel and Iran, Trump signaled that the United States, under his leadership, remains the dominant force in Middle East diplomacy. His frustration highlighted the U.S.’s role as the ceasefire’s architect and underscored that violations would not be tolerated without consequences. This move reminded both nations of their reliance on U.S. support—militarily for Israel and diplomatically for Iran in avoiding broader sanctions or isolation.
  2. Pressuring for Compliance: Trump’s bluntness was a calculated pressure tactic. By calling out Israel’s “unloading” and Iran’s initial strike, he aimed to shame both into reconsidering further violations. His urgent appeal to Israel to avoid additional strikes against Iran, labeling such actions a “serious violation” of the ceasefire, was a direct warning to an ally accustomed to significant autonomy. Similarly, his criticism of Iran’s actions reinforced his earlier stance of giving them “chance after chance” to negotiate, signaling that his patience was not infinite.
  3. Shaping the Narrative: Trump’s colorful language ensured his message dominated global headlines, keeping the focus on his administration’s efforts to broker peace rather than the ceasefire’s collapse. By framing Israel and Iran as directionless, he positioned himself as the clear-headed leader seeking order amid chaos. This narrative was particularly critical as he headed to the NATO summit, where allies would scrutinize his handling of the crisis.
  4. Balancing Domestic and International Audiences: Domestically, Trump’s tough talk resonated with his base, who value his no-nonsense style. Internationally, it sent a message to adversaries like Iran that he was not afraid to confront allies like Israel, challenging perceptions of unchecked U.S. support for Israeli actions. This balancing act strengthened his leverage in future negotiations.

Trump’s Control: Actions Speak Louder Than Words

Beyond his rhetoric, Trump demonstrated control through decisive actions that underscored his influence over the situation:

  • Direct Diplomacy: Prior to the ceasefire, Trump had privately and publicly urged Israel to refrain from striking Iran, emphasizing his desire for a deal to prevent escalation. Despite Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s decision to act, Trump’s ability to extract a ceasefire agreement in the first place showcased his diplomatic clout.
  • Public Rebuke as Leverage: By openly criticizing Israel, a move described as a “rare public rebuke of an ally,” Trump shifted the dynamic of U.S.-Israel relations. This signaled to Israel that U.S. support, while steadfast, comes with expectations of compliance with American-led initiatives. It also positioned Trump as a neutral arbiter, increasing his credibility with other regional players.
  • Pushing for De-escalation: Trump’s comments were paired with a clear call for negotiations to resume, particularly with Iran, to address its nuclear program and prevent further strikes. His insistence that both nations “don’t know what they’re doing” was a strategic jab to nudge them toward the negotiating table, where the U.S. could dictate terms.
  • Navigating NATO and Global Opinion: Departing for the NATO summit, Trump used the crisis to project strength to allies wary of U.S. foreign policy under his second term. His ability to manage the ceasefire’s fallout while engaging with global leaders demonstrated his multitasking prowess and commitment to U.S. leadership on the world stage.

The Bigger Picture: A Pattern of Control

Trump’s handling of the Israel-Iran ceasefire breach aligns with his broader foreign policy approach: bold rhetoric, strategic pressure, and a knack for keeping adversaries and allies alike off balance. His critics, such as those on X who argue he has ceded too much control to Israel, overlook the nuance of his strategy. While Israel’s actions may have tested his influence, Trump’s public frustration and diplomatic maneuvering suggest he is far from a bystander. Instead, he is actively shaping the conflict’s trajectory, using the ceasefire’s collapse as an opportunity to reinforce U.S. dominance.

Conclusion

President Trump’s June 24, 2025, statement that Israel and Iran “don’t know what the f*** they’re doing” was more than a soundbite—it was a calculated move to reassert control over a spiraling Middle East crisis. By leveraging blunt rhetoric, public rebukes, and diplomatic pressure, Trump demonstrated his ability to steer the actions of both allies and adversaries. While the ceasefire’s breach exposed the region’s volatility, Trump’s response showcased his strategic acumen, ensuring the U.S. remains the central player in the quest for stability. As he navigates this crisis, his blend of bravado and pragmatism continues to define his approach, proving that even in chaos, he knows exactly what he’s doing.

Chad Pelley Lawsuit in Shambles – Free Speech Win Relieves Bailey Symonds, Strips Injunction

Published

on

In a pivotal legal ruling issued on May 14, 2025, the Iowa District Court in Linn County struck down nearly all of the speech-restricting injunctions in the high-profile case of Chad Pelley v. Dustin Mazgaj et al. The decision significantly weakens Pelley’s attempt to silence critics through civil court orders—and raises fresh questions about where the case goes from here.

Chad Pelley Injunction Dissolved Bailey Symonds by Populist Wire


Symonds Cleared, Mazgaj Partially Restricted

At the heart of the ruling is a clear rejection of Pelley’s broad effort to restrict speech. The court fully dissolved the injunction against Bailey Symonds, stating that Pelley failed to prove she caused harm or was likely to in the future. As of now, Symonds is under no legal restrictions, restoring her full right to speak about the case, attend public meetings, and post freely online.

In the case of Dustin Mazgaj, who operates under the name Butt Crack News Network, the court issued a narrowed injunction: Mazgaj is now only prohibited from publicly referring to Chad Pelley as a:

  • “Pedophile”
  • “Drug user”
  • “Drug dealer”

All other parts of the injunction—including no-contact orders and broad bans on speech or proximity—were dissolved.


Melissa Duffield Confirmed Unrestricted

The court also clarified that Melissa Duffield, another named defendant, was never placed under an injunction at any point. Attempts by Pelley’s legal team to restrict her speech in a separate post-trial filing were also rejected, with the judge referencing potential First Amendment concerns.


BCNN Not a Company, Just a Username

In a notable clarification, the court determined that Butt Crack News Network is not a separate business or legal entity—it’s simply the name of Mazgaj’s YouTube account. As such, any restrictions on BCNN are effectively just extensions of those on Mazgaj personally.


Skylar Price Still in Limbo

One original defendant, Skylar Price, has not responded to the lawsuit and was found in default. The court did not revisit the injunction as it applies to Price, meaning the original restrictions may still technically be in effect—but without any new legal activity or defense.


Beau Bish and Flex Your Freedoms Not Bound

Though Pelley filed a second motion earlier this year to add Beau Bish and the media group Flex Your Freedoms to the injunction, the court noted that they have not yet been formally served. As a result, they remain unrestricted by the court at this time.


Where Does Pelley’s Case Go From Here?

The judge’s ruling sends a clear signal: courts will not issue broad gag orders unless the speech in question is proven to be false and harmful—and even then, only in narrowly tailored ways.

Pelley may still pursue defamation claims, but without the broad powers of a speech-restricting injunction, he faces a steeper road. The ruling emphasizes the high bar courts place on prior restraint, especially when it involves criticism of someone involved in public matters like real estate development, civic boards, and local politics.

As for the remaining claims—libel, false light, and emotional distress—they will now move toward a full trial. But the public gag orders Pelley once used to silence his critics have been largely rolled back, and the spotlight on his case is only getting brighter.

President Donald Trump 45 – 47

Published

on

Donald Trump’s political journey over the last eight years has been a vivid illustration of modern populism, defying conventional political odds. Starting with his 2016 presidential campaign, Trump, a real estate mogul and reality TV star, harnessed populist sentiments to propel his candidacy. His message resonated with many Americans feeling left behind by globalization and economic shifts, promising to restore jobs, combat what he described as unfair trade deals, and prioritize American interests over international cooperation. This populist wave was marked by his direct communication style, bypassing traditional media to connect with voters through rallies and social media, where he spoke of “draining the swamp” in Washington, suggesting a deep-seated distrust in the political establishment.

The struggle of Trump supporters has mirrored this populist movement, characterized by a sense of alienation from what they perceive as a detached political and cultural elite. This group, often labeled pejoratively by some in the mainstream, found in Trump a voice for their frustrations with immigration policies, economic policies favoring global trade over local jobs, and cultural shifts they felt were imposed without their consent. The Trump family, from Melania’s fashion choices to Ivanka’s political involvement, became symbols of this populist resistance against the perceived elitism of politics. The criticism they faced only deepened the solidarity among Trump’s supporters, who saw in his family a reflection of their own battles against the establishment.

The alt-media ecosystem was instrumental in this populist surge, serving as both a battleground and a bastion. Outlets like Breitbart and Infowars, and later platforms like Parler and Truth Social, became the echo chambers where Trump’s narrative of being a victim of political witch hunts and media bias was amplified. These platforms didn’t just report news; they crafted a narrative where Trump’s every move, from policy to personal tweets, was framed as part of a larger fight against a corrupt system. This interaction between Trump, his supporters, and the alt-media has redefined political discourse, showcasing how populism can harness media, both traditional and digital, to challenge and reshape political norms. Trump’s journey has thus not only defied odds but has also redefined what political success looks like in an era where populism can sway elections and influence policy discussions at the highest levels.
