Iryna Zarutska, Decarlos Brown, and the Politics of Race in 2025 - 9/10/2025

I can't unsee this, no matter how I try.

 

 

Decarlos Brown, even though I don't think Row 2, 3rd one is him, this collage is a testament to FAILURE.

$3.3 MILLION from left-wing NGO The MacArthur Foundation went to Mecklenburg County to “reduce the jail population”, the very county that released career criminal DeCarlos Brown 14 times.

There's a pendulum of society, culture, and policy in most things. Today, I want to talk about the politics of race in modern day America, and, spoiler, to assert the pendulum has swung too far. It is absolutely the fault of the progressive left, and organizations like The MacArthur Foundation that the pendulum has swung so far, unacceptably and absolutely unjustifiably to a point where a mentally insane, murderous career criminal like Decarlos Brown is free, largely because he's Black and there's too many Black people in prison. I suggest there are only 3 ways to reduce the number of Black people in jail. Two of them are unacceptable. Here goes:

1) Career violent criminals (no matter what color they are), at some certain point, swiftly eliminated via the death penalty. Do not pass Go, do not collect $200.

2) Raise the threshold for incarceration to some insanely high level, putting career and insane, violent criminals on the street instead of in jail. This is what we have now in many jurisdictions across America. This is what we have in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina. This is what leftist NGOs like The MacArthur Foundation are working toward. This is why Iryna Zarutska is dead. We can't lock up all the violent criminals, there's too many of them. What? YGBSM.

3) (The only acceptable solution, in my opinion.) Reduce the incidence or frequency and the number of instances of violent crime in the Black community. I do not know how to do this. Any ideas I might have, that anyone might have for that matter, will be opposed as racist and unacceptable. Yes, there are too many Black people in jail. Yes, the system has been historically harder on Black people in the criminal justice world.

As to #3, above, you don't want to hear this, but tough shit, here it is: Start with single-parent, fatherless households. Too many heroic Black women (and White women with bi-racial children) are raising their kids on their own. This is true in the White community, too, but the point of this post is reducing the numbers of incarcerated Black people. Next, is there a religious and spiritual void. Religion is not a cure-all, nor a solution, but being raised with and developing a faith is undeniably a way to reduce, I didn't say eliminate, instances of criminal behavior. Three, schools need to educate: reading, writing, and arithmetic. Academic standards are unacceptably low in many parts of our country, especially in our cities. There may be 1,000,000 reasons and justifications for that. IDGAF. A kid either reads at grade level, does math at grade level, or they don't.

Switching gears, only slightly. If you think I'm being racist because I think progressive policies are failing society in this regard, you are a huge part of the problem. You're trying to make Black crime levels an Emperor's New Clothes issue, where nobody is allowed to say it, lest they suffer accusations of racism.

Imagine if Miss Zarutska was Black and Mr. Brown was White. Every single thing about this case would be entirely different. Everything. And that's wrong.

Finding fairness and justice is important. Making our country unsafe is not a correction to those injustices, not by a long-shot. I'm not a big fan of the death penalty, but damned if Decarlos Brown don't deserve it. IDGAF if he's mentally ill. I really don't. Is he curable? Is he capable of being rehabilitated? Is he capable of remorse? I don't think so.

If the Emperor won't allow us to talk about the cultural and societal reasons Black prison populations are too high, and we don't want the death penalty, and we can't keep letting career, violent criminals loose, what to do? We'd better build much larger prisons and fill them with violent felons. Why? Because otherwise, a fourth option I didn't list, above, will come to be, all by itself:

Vigilantism. If our government won't protect its people, those people protect themselves.

A final thought. I saw a good number of posts questioning other riders of the Charlotte light rail. Why didn't they step up and step in? I can explain in two words: Daniel Penny. How much more about it can I say? Progressive prosecutors and leftist political activists would make any, especially any White good Samaritan, out to be the bad guy.

Part of the Yahoo headline about the Daniel Penny / Jordan Neely story: 

"Daniel Penny, who choked a homeless man to death"

Decarlos Brown was homeless with a long record of menacing, too. Just sayin'.
  

Encountering a TDS Sufferer Suffering in FL - 9/7/2025

I accompanied my mom for a medical test the other day. While we were in the waiting area, a very opinionated and chatty woman of 88 years, a retired NYC teacher, opined about any number of things. Clearly, she was a left of center blue voter, a customer of all her news from the deep blue echo chamber of the NY Times, CBS, ABC, NBC, and CNN, probably with a little New Yorker, the Atlantic, and NPR thrown in for good measure. I behaved myself. She's entitled to her opinion. I even went as far as keeping my mouth shut when she told us she hates Florida, "I hate it here." In the context of the rest of her comments, it was clearly a political statement.

Governor Ron DeSantis

 

"Come back home to NY, where your socialist Democrat heart longs to be!"

I know there are many deep blue, TDS sufferers who are miserable here or who won't move here because Florida is so awful. Governor DeSantis has done a great job, and as cities and states to our north continue to evolve further and further toward the progressive and socialist left, more and more moderate and conservative voters have fled here. If I wasn't being polite, I'd have told the old gal, "Move back to NY and be happy." I didn't. I kept my mouth shut. Anyone who believes the NY Times and still deceptively edited television like CBS 60 Minutes doesn't give two shits about my opinion, nor do I give even one shit about hers.

A parting note: Blowing up Venezuelan narco-terrorists is what I voted for. They're not criminals who we wait to arrive and hope to catch selling their drugs. They're an organized group from abroad bringing death to the USA. At this point, who among us doesn't know or know of a family, if not your own, which has lost someone to fentanyl? Sending these terrorists to Davey Jones' locker is the right choice.

Can you imagine it, there are people who hate Trump more than they hate these guys? These people think they are righteous and good. What they are is Trump Deranged.

 

Do you hear yourself? - 8/12/2025

Last year the murder rate in Washington D.C. was nearly double the rate in Bogota and triple the rate in Mexico City. Because they hate Trump more than they hate violent crime, the excuses and resistance to Trump stepping in is astounding. "So far in 2025 the numbers are down!" In my imagination, I keep hearing Margaret Brennan's interview with J.D. Vance, Margaret arguing that the Venezuelan gangs are only controlling a couple of apartment complexes in Colorado. J.D. said something like, "Do you hear yourself, Margaret?" Every excuse I hear for D.C., I have to admit that I can't think of anything better than, "Do you hear yourself?" "Crime is down in D.C., it's barely double the murder rate in Mexico City this year! Barely Double!"

The progressive left has dealing with crime all wrong. As they do with economic issues, they focus on outcomes. Too many in jail. Too many convictions. Unfair policing policies and unjust prosecutions.

That stuff ain't working. Why? Because it doesn't work. All I hear is resistance, excuses, and bullshit explanations. Yes, bullshit explanations. If you're one of them parroting these same bullshit explanation now that, heaven forbid, Trump is stepping in, I have to ask, "Do you hear yourself?"

Trump - Russia Can't Die, If It Does, Your Lies Will Die, too - 8/10/2025

I'm going to try not to look stuff up, so, if you fact check me and I'm just 'almost right' about something I have to say this morning, I can live with that. This bullshit Russia collusion narrative is 9 years old now, and I didn't keep notes or a database.

Trump and Russia. The narrative they can't allow to die.

First of all, I remember Wiki Leaks. They released emails from John Podesta. This was back in 2016 I think. Could have been 2017, but my recollection is that it was prior to the Trump vs. Clinton election. Do you remember what was in there? Like the one, important thing that undermines the entire Russia collusion narrative? I want to say the email was May of 2016 as my mind dwells on it for a bit. There was an email in which, before ANY of the Trump - Russia bullshit started out there, Hillary says words to the effect of "we'll tie him to Russia and beat him that way". It was the Clinton Campaign who tried (pretty successfully) to frame Trump for colluding with Russia.

Now a Senator, Adam Schiff claimed repeatedly he saw the evidence. Was he gullible, or was he part of the operation to frame Trump?

Nearly every single thing that happened since then, as far as Democrat and Deep State attacks on Trump, goes back to that fact, that point in time. Of course, if you watch CNN or ABC or read the New York Times, they're not EVER going to connect the dots back to that point in time, so I had to do it for them.

Hey, while I'm here, who said this: "First we f*** Flynn, then we f*** Trump?"

OK, for extra credit: what two people exchanged these text messages: "Trump's never going to be elected President, right?" "No, he won't. We'll stop it." I may be paraphrasing here, but I haven't forgotten. Have you?

Classified documents the Deep State worked hard to keep hidden from you, documents that were declassified by DNI Tulsi Gabbard, also show that the Russia collusion narrative is deeply rooted in Hillary Clinton's campaign. It was foisted on you because she had to do something to distract you from her classified e-mail problems.

But, hey. I still see Trump Russia colluded thrown out there by gullible sheep. What is most often happening there is that Russian meddling in the election and the notion of Trump colluding with them are conflated and treated as being the same thing. They're not. Yes, Paul Manafort went to jail. He sold some internal polling info, I think that's what he sold, to a Russian. Trump fired him. He went to jail for it, too.

Oh, yeah. The Steel dossier. Let's get some facts straight. Fusion GPS is a firm in D.C. that does what's called 'opposition research.' In 2015 a GOP candidate, I think it was Ted Cruz, hired them to do background on Trump. They did, and sometime later, after Cruz dropped out, the Clinton campaign contracted with them. Read this next bit very carefully. Again, as a disclaimer, if I have an improperly crossed 't' or an un-dotted 'i', sorry. This is from a now 68 year old memory.

The Clinton campaign commissioned, in payments rendered via a lawyer named Marc Elias (still very active in the political dirty tricks game) from the lawfirm Perkins-Coie, Fusion GPS for the Steel Dossier. Fusion had in it's employ a former CIA type, she may actually have been NSA or other three-letter agency, but I think CIA, named Nellie Orr. Nellie's husband was or is, no idea their current status, a guy named Bruce Orr, a DOJ lawyer connected to Crossfire Hurricane. I think it is greater than 50/50 odds that Nellie wrote the dossier, or at least parts of it. But, even if it was Christopher Steele himself or one of his British colleagues, that either means that the Clinton Campaign paid a political dirty tricks operation in D.C. to phony up the dossier, or that she paid a foreign entity, under Steele, to do it. Either way, Hillary Clinton was and is dirty.

Why all this today? Because all this is absolutely bedrock foundational to everything that happened to Trump in his candidacy and first term. Every single thing. If you pull these cards from the first level of the house of cards, it all falls to pieces. These facts, not alone, there are others, but these facts condemn the U.S. press, the three letter agencies, and the Clinton Campaign. Democrats attacking Tulsi Gabbard, Sen. Mark Warner, for example, one among many, know the cards are being toppled. 9 years in, there are folks who have made a career bolstering these lies. There are reporters who won Pulitzer Prizes for journalism for spreading them. None of them can go back now and correct the record, lest the house of cards fall directly on them.

Then there's the average, run of the mill, Trump Deranged Democrat. You've sucked so much milk from these lying teats for so long, you wouldn't recognize or believe the truth, regardless. Mark Warner and his ilk know this. They like keeping you stupid and ill-informed. They like keeping your Trump Derangement at a fever high level, all the better to keep you from seeing whose dirty tricks these actually were, and to keep you from seeing whose fingers were in the cookie jar.

Rhetorical questions, in closing. Would people who foisted Trump-Russia collusion lies to try to win in 2016 also lie to us about Hunter's laptop in 2020? Would they cheat in an election by shoving in thousands and thousands of absentee ballots in the middle of the night? Would they taint tallies in electronic voting machines? I betcha if you said no to all three of those, that you still believe that Trump colluded with the Russians. You also probably stopped reading this blog post a long, long time ago.

I wanted to talk also about how facilitating illegal immigration was an intentional political play on part of Democrats, but I've run out of rant for now. Maybe another day.

Change the F***ing Channel, Dumba$$! - 8/2/2025

Change the f***ing channel, Dumba$$!

Fmr CIA Director John Brennan is a compulsive and professional liar. And a criminal.

If your news channel of choice still uses former CIA Director John Brennan for analysis and commentary, are you a Trump deranged willing dupe, or are you just stupid? Watching John Brennan and believing him only makes sense to me for someone who hates Trump so badly that you want to cling to any and every negative thing said or written about him, regardless truth, regardless of source. There's plenty to legitimately criticize Trump about, but John Brennan isn't the guy you want informing you... or maybe he is.

If you watched a different channel, you would know that John Brennan was the one who overruled his analysts in order to help create a Russia collusion controversy surrounding Trump. The collusion narrative was a product of Hillary Clinton and the Clinton campaign. High ranking members of the Obama Administration took on the mission of advancing that lie with the specific goal of damaging Trump and taking attention off of Hillary Clinton's criminality in the classified emails from an unsecured and illegal  server in the bathroom scandal. It worked... of a while.

But then Trump got re-elected. Wasn't supposed to happen. They even tried to assassinate him to stop him. Failed. He got in office and appointed Tulsi Gabbard ad Director of National Intelligence. If you are listening to people on your news channel of choice who refer to DNI Gabbard as "a Russian asset", maybe you ought to change the f***ing channel, dumba$$!

Tulsi Gabbard isn't a Russian asset you f***ing morons!

Here's a brief list of news outlets I wouldn't trust to tell the true story of the 2016-present day Russia collusion story:

• New York Times, Washington Post
• Politico
• Slate, Vox, HuffPo, Daily Kos, etc.
• ABC, NBC, CBS, PBS, NPR
• CNN, MSNBC

If you don't understand by now that every one of those I listed, and dozens that I didn't, are invested in the narrative, and in most cases were directly involved partners in crime, aka: co-conspirators, with the Clinton Campaign, Brennan and the rest of the Deep State, I suggest you change the f***ing channel, dumba$$

I can't believe the lack of curiosity from those of you on the left with all the revelations from the stunning ongoing declassification of documents. If you think John Brennan coming on CNN or MSNBC and telling you "nothing to see here" means there's nothing to see, are you really that  f***ing stupid or are you just a fellow traveler in Brennan's, rolling along in the same Deep State caravan of lies? All I can say is:

Change the f***ing channel, Dumba$$! 

4 reasons, 3 reasons, 2 reasons - 7/23/2025

Lemme give you 4 reasons President Barack Obama won't be successfully prosecuted for any of the relevations in the Russiagate scandal. He's neck deep in it, but if you think you're going to see him arrested, convicted, and or confined, forget about it.

1. He has broadly defined presidential immunity. The same standard of immunity that SCOTUS declared Trump had/has will apply to Obama.

2. Statute of limitations will be expired on many individual charges that might otherwise be brought.

3. Obama will be way beyond untouchable by any convened Washington D.C. grand jury.

4. Washington D.C. Federal Judges are about as likely to find Obama guilty of something as D.C. grand juries would be to charge him. As in not.

 So forget about it.

Now, here are 3 reasons Brennan, Comey, Clapper, Clinton, etc. won't be successfully prosecuted:

1. The statute of limitations will also shield these scumbags from liability for their own criminal actions.

2. Washington D.C. courts will also excuse almost any crime, even if proven, if it was done in the name of stopping Trump.

3. Washington D.C. Federal Judges are leftist activists and won't give the prosecutors of their fellow travelers much chance for success.

And finally, 2 reasons NOT to release the so-called Epstein files.

1. Because not every person whose name is going to come out is guilty of any crime. We ought not "guilt by association" innocent people in the interest of nailing some guilty ones.

2. Releasing the names may weaken cases. I'd rather see them build cases and successfully prosecute a few of these scumbags than to have the whole bunch of them get away with it because releasing these names compromised their rights.

I realize there's blood in the water and some of you sharks wanna eat, but I think I'm telling you right. 

The Tulsi Bombshells. Incomiing!!! - 7/21/2025

This morning, I've got stuff going on, so just a few notes on the DNI Tulsi Gabbard bombshells of the weekend (DNI stands for Director of National Intelligence, if you didn't already know):

 

1. Not a bit of it, except the specific documents that she has that back up the rest of the story, is new to me. Devin Nunes, Kash Patel, and Dan Bongino knew all this, too. But half the country get your news from lying propagandists. The Trump - Leslie Stahl 60 Minutes interview comes to mind, one medias suitcase of lies on a Queen Mary steamship full of them. You could look it up: Leslie Stahl and Donald Trump 60 Minutes. Go for it.

 

It may be new to you, but it ain't new.

2. If you do have even half a an open mind, find a good, clean copy of the Epoch Times Spygate foldout I'm posting here, above. It's all in there.

 

3. If you still think HRC, Brennan, Clapper, Comey, are/were all "good guys," you know, people who live and act with honesty, integrity, decency, and always in the interest of righteousness, you're hopelessly biased and or brainwashed. You are a huge part of the problem. I am sorry to say that, but it's true. If you had had an open mind 7, 8, 9 years ago, this wouldn't be a big story now.

 

4. Barack Obama won't ever be found guilty by a judge or jury in D.C. Forget it. It'll be hard enough to get the legal system in far left D.C. to get any of the other corrupt officals/conspirators. Obama? Forget it. Untouchable in D.C. Fantasize about something else, that ain't happening.

 

5. I wish I could say all this was unprecedented, but after all these scumbags did to try to stop Trump from being elected in 2016, again in 2020, and yet again in 2024, it's more like "about damned time" than unprecedented. Payback for having their agents rifle through Melania's panty drawer looking for documents that were in open dispute and the subject to ongoing discussions and negotiation? It is coming.

Spoiler: they were in Melania's panty drawer looking for evidence of what Tulsi has made public this weekend, NOT the documents they said publicly that they were after. There is supposedly a binder Trump kept that had all the bad stuff in it. Candidly, I don't know that there really is or was a binder, but I can easily, very easily, buy the theory that they were looking for the kinds of emails and correspondence Tulsi is making public.

 

6. Remember when evil Hillary called Tulsi Gabbard "a Russian asset"? Remember when the corrupt U.S. intelligence apparatus put her on a terrorist watch list causing her, a sitting member of the U.S. House of Representatives and an officer in the U.S. Army to get special security attention, aka harassment, when she flew? Seems like they f***ed with the wrong girl, at least it seems like that to me.

 

7. There is more to follow. DNI Gabbard says more documents are forthcoming. She says a number of whistleblowers are finally coming forward to tell their story. Somebody had to know something. Bring it on.

 

8. If you still think the Deep State is just a MAGA conspiracy theory, you're stupid. Wake the f*** up. TDS is no excuse for stupidity.
