JD Vance Drops Truth Bombs on Canada David Strom Yesterday, I wrote about the fact that Canada is being overrun by migrants. Almost half of all births are now to foreign-born mothers (42% currently, and rising), and one-third of the overall population is foreign-born. One of the many terrible consequences of the liberal policies that have resulted in this replacement of the native population is stagnating economic growth. Migration, of course, is not the only cause of this stagnation. Energy policies, housing policies, and all sorts of government meddling in the economy are at fault as well, but it is undeniable that replacing a high-trust first-world citizenry with people from a low-trust, low-education, and low-productivity region is bound to make your society and economy lose vitality and eventually collapse. Ask Rome about that, if you like. And with all due respect to my Canadian friends, whose politics focus obsessively on the United States: your stagnating living standards have nothing to do with Donald Trump or whatever bogeyman the CBC tells you to blame. The fault lies with your leadership, elected by you. https://hotair.com/david-strom/2025/11/21/jd-vance-drops-truth-bombs-on-canada-n3809163 .

Democrats Aren't Even Trying to Hide That They Are Just Making Up Hoaxes David Strom A lot of conservatives think that Jasmine Crockett was humiliated by our proving that she slandered Lee Zeldin by claiming he took money from Jeffrey Epstein. Zeldin indeed received a contribution from a man named Jeffrey Epstein, but not the Jeffrey Epstein we're all talking about. It was a sly slander, and she was, in fact, not at all humiliated or embarrassed. She was proud because more people heard her smear than that it was a lie. Conservatives still believe that facts and a passing relationship to reality matter in political fights with Democrats. We are wrong. They are immersed in Critical Theory, which holds that everything is a "narrative," and "narratives" are simply a means to gain power over others. Every utterance is a power play, so they utter what they believe will get them power. Hence, Crockett has no shame. Instead, she is smirking about it. It is a fool's errand to believe a single thing a Leftist says. Some Democrats who are liberals will tell the truth as they see it, but anybody who is a leftist is almost by definition a liar in the terms that we understand. They may or may not be imparting facts at times, but nothing they say is not part of a power play. That is the purpose of speech. I bring all this up because of another horrific slander, and another Jasmine Crockett-style "clarification." It comes from Minnesota's own transgender leftist sexual deviant child-grooming State Legislator Leigh Finke. Finke is a grotesque simulacrum of a female who has pushed horrific legislation intended to groom children into sterilization, mutilation, and sexual promiscuity. {snip} Harry Reid famously accused Mitt Romney of failing to pay his taxes—an accusation he made up out of whole cloth. After the election, when it was proven to be entirely false, he was asked why he did it. His answer was simple: "Romney didn't win, did he? It is a mistake to take anything said by leftists as an expression of what they believe, because they quite literally believe that language exists to be a weapon in the search for power. Concepts are tools, words are weapons, and normies exist to be manipulated. Everything is a hoax. https://hotair.com/david-strom/2025/11/21/democrats-arent-even-trying-to-hide-that-they-are-just-making-up-hoaxes-n3809162 .

Bye - bye.

Huh.

Even sillier the second time.

Huge find by @damintoell discovering that Jeb Boasberg brought on a retired judge from FLA to help do his judicial dirty work and insulate himself and other DC judges in sprawling J6 investigation. Important to note that Boasberg onboarded Baker ONE MONTH after taking over as DC chief judge. How many other NDOs aside from the one on Verizon for Jordan subpoena did Boasberg's stooge judge sign? However--this indicates that Boasberg's predecessor, the equally contemptible Beryl Howell, may have also onboarded Baker since this NDO was issued April 2022 when she was still DC chief judge. And it is STUNNING that any federal judge would claim in a court order that Jim Jordan was a flight risk and would have fled the country had he been notified of the subpoena.

Somalia Doesn’t Need a Government Budget – It Has Minnesota Earlier today, I wrote an article about Somalians in Minnesota starting autism centers to get their four year olds diagnosed so they get extra money from the government for their kids with special needs. I was shocked and sat with it all day getting more and more angry about it all. The more I learn, the more infuriated I am. Yes, terrorists in other countries are being supported by Minnesota welfare dollars. https://twitchy.com/justmindy/2025/11/20/somalian-autism-ring-medicaid-fraud-n2421919

THE NARRATIVE OVER ALL !

Tehran Bone Dry and Tapping Out Beege Welborn This has been running under most news radars, but it's literally a catastrophe for the mullahs. After decades of mismanagement, illicit drilling, and indulging the citizens of the capital at the expense of the poorer rural areas, Iran is rapidly depleting what few water resources it has left. Exacerbated by six continuous years of drought, the situation is so dire that the Iranian president, Masoud Pezeshkian, has said the capital city of Tehran might have to be 'evacuated' before winter. Even if such an extreme move does not prove to be immediately necessary, Pezeshkian has said, Tehran cannot continue in its current place and form. The area will not sustain any further human occupation or development. The pressure on the regime, unlike the wilting pressure in the taps, is enormous. The last water crisis precipitated violent street protests at a time when the government was in a much stronger position. This time, should street explosions begin, the outcome could be very different. https://hotair.com/tree-hugging-sister/2025/11/21/tehran-bone-dry-and-tapping-out-n3809155 .

Bump

Bump.

(Non-Iran/Israel) Events in Iran are moving fast. Tehran Faces Evacuation As Water Supplies Reach Zero and the City Sinks Into the Desert Mother Nature may accomplish something that neither the U.S. nor Israel could ever have contemplated: the evacuation of Tehran's 9.7 million inhabitants. Iran is currently experiencing its fifth consecutive year of drought, and the autumnal rainfall is about a quarter of that in 2024, that would be two millimeters. In short, Tehran is facing a "Day Zero" catastrophe. "Zero day" is probably shortly after January 1. The Amir Kabir Dam, once a vital lifeline holding over 160,000 acre-feet, now languishes at a mere 8 percent capacity, or about a two-week supply for Tehran. In terms of reservoir capacity, isn’t huge. It is about the size of the Canyon Dam on Texas’s Guadalupe River or the Smith Mountain Dam on Virginia’s Roanoke River. But when you plop it down in the middle of the desert and make your nation’s capital and a lot of your agriculture dependent on it for water, it takes on a significance all its own. The other reservoirs in the five-dam system that supplies Tehran with water — Latyan, Lar, Mamloo, and Taleqan — are in equally poor condition. At Latyan, only half of the current 10 percent fill can be used. Lar is at one percent, Mamloo at seven percent, and Taleqan, which is about twice the size of Amir Kabir, is at 30 percent capacity. Iran is drought-prone; indeed, it is the middle of the most severe drought in 57 years, but that isn’t what is causing the current crisis. It is the logical and foreseeable outcome of decades of environmental neglect and Soviet-style mismanagement that has turned a naturally arid climate into a national emergency. Iran’s groundwater has been depleted, primarily in an effort to surge agriculture to deal with a booming population. Tehran is sinking at a rate of 25 cm per year as the aquifers collapse. This poses a threat to utilities, subways, and the structural integrity of buildings. It is hard to imagine that the settling hasn't caused leaks in water mains. To be clear, this is not a Tehran problem; this is an Iran problem. The drought affects the whole country, and 30 of Iran’s 31 provinces are experiencing land subsidence due to unchecked groundwater extraction. https://redstate.com/streiff/2025/11/10/the-end-is-near-tehran-faces-evacuation-as-water-supplies-reach-zero-and-the-city-sinks-into-the-desert-n2196051 .

Is the Comey Prosecution on Thin Ice? Not As Thin As Some Might Have You Think By Susie Moore To borrow a phrase from a fellow Missourian, reports of the Comey prosecution's death have been greatly exaggerated. Former FBI Director James Comey, of course, was indicted in late September on two counts in relation to statements he made during a congressional hearing in September 2020: False statements within the jurisdiction of the legislative branch of the United States Government [18 U.S.C. § 1001(a)(2)] Obstruction of a Congressional proceeding [18 U.S.C. § 1505] There was a bit of buzz on Wednesday afternoon following a hearing in the case on a motion by Comey's defense team to dismiss the charges against him on the basis of vindictive prosecution. Eastern District of Virginia Judge Michael Nachmanoff reportedly grilled Department of Justice (DOJ) lawyers over a purported discrepancy between the indictment form presented to the grand jury and the final version filed in the case. This, in turn, produced rather ominous-sounding headlines like: Trump’s DOJ Admits Comey Grand Jury Never Saw Final Indictment Comey case hanging by a thread as judge squeezes DOJ over Halligan’s handling And that was on the heels of a Monday ruling by Magistrate Judge William Fitzpatrick ordering the DOJ to turn over grand jury materials to the defense — materials which normally would not be shared with the defense. All of which led to the inference that the Comey indictment wasn't long for this world. I read the reporting yesterday, and even began to write something up on the matter, but I hesitated because the only information I had to go on was reports of what was said in the hearing, and the court documents available at that point didn't shed much light on the situation. As it turns out, I'm glad I held off. Subsequent to the hearing, the DOJ filed its objections to Fitzpatrick's order regarding the disclosure of the grand jury materials, and then, earlier today, filed a notice correcting the record, both of which help establish that the grand jury did, in fact, return a true bill on two counts, those being the two listed above. Now, does that mean Judge Nachmanoff will see it that way? No. Nor does it guarantee the indictment will survive some of the other challenges raised against it. But for all the breathless proclamations that the grand jury never actually saw the indictment, and ZOMG! — folks should simmer down. They did. It just had an additional count in it that was subsequently removed because they didn't agree on that one. Nothing new or different was added. Something no longer pertinent was removed. https://redstate.com/smoosieq/2025/11/20/is-the-comey-prosection-on-thin-ice-not-as-thin-as-some-might-have-you-think-n2196418 The confusion arose from the fact that there were initially three counts, the first of which the grand jury did not agree on. It was the second and third counts that they returned an indictment on. So the indictment was amended to remove the (original) first count and include only the second and third counts (which became the first and second), and that was signed off on by the grand jury foreperson, with one other grand juror present. (The rest had apparently left for the day.)
