HEADLINE/TOPIC RUNDOWN

Strange things are happening this year during Mardi Gras.

This is the 2nd parade, so the 2nd Krewe that has had a float get stopped and all the riders removed.

They were targeting NOLA police and ICE and State Police by throwing beads, massive bags of beads directly at them.

HEADLINE: All riders removed from Float 32 in Krewe of Thoth after beads thrown at federal agents, NOPD says by Nigell Moses

The incident comes days after riders were removed from a float in the Krewe of Carrollton parade when beads were thrown toward officers along the route. This marks another float being cleared during Carnival season.

Let it be known, I don’t think a Mardi Gras parade is the time to display your political anger.

The people lining up on the streets are not there for that.

Especially in a state that elected the MAGA representatives etc.

Keep politics out of the parades, just let it be good family fun like it used to be.

 

MUNICH

Hillary Clinton and AOC were basically embarrassed this past weekend.

The Czech PM embarrassed Hillary to her face on stage.

The moderator told Hillary to allow the PM to finish speaking.

26m

OLYMPICS

US Men’s hockey team is doing great.

The Free Bird songs and the patriotic fashion in which they are playing and acting is really nice to see.

The curling, speed skating the hockey it has been fun to watch.

You know what you see when you watch the winter Olympics this year in Milano Cortina?

QUESTION: What do you NOT see?

ANSWER: Muslims, African immigrants.

If the European Union allowed all these millions to immigrate there, where are they? Why aren’t they competing in the Olympics?

Why are there no Mohammads receiving trophies and gold medals in speed skating? Why are there no Mohammads in figure skating? What about downhill skiing?

OLYMPICS

I want to go back to the last thing I mentioned about the Muslims and the winter Olympics.

Remember the Swedish commercial where it was basically them talking about their massive amounts of ‘diversity’?

It was very controversial when that commercial came out.

They boasted and bragged about welcoming ALL refugees into their country.

What do you get out of diversity?

You don’t get speed skaters.

They just don’t have an interest in supra-natural things.

Don’t misunderstand, I am not knocking this culture in the winter Olympics.

 

AUDIO/VIDEO: New Yorker Records the Call to Prayer – Many New Yorkers are furious after the Islamic call to prayer is BLASTING into people’s homes as early as 5AM under Ugandan Mayor Mamdani. Multiple videos of this happening are now surfacing

 

MARCO RUBIO IN MUNICH

He got a standing ovation!

Even the Europeans see what is happening now.

47m

CALLER ASHLEY DURAND IN FLORIDA

What ended up happening is we planned to camp on the same weekend as the Fort Foster days.

The Martyrs of La Florida Missions

La Florida has martyrs!  From 1549-1715 the historic lands of the Southeast once called La Florida have a glorious past blessed by the native people and missionaries who made the ultimate sacrifice for the Faith.

So much great history in Florida.

HEADLINE: Marco Rubio’s Munich Triumph by Rod Dreher

To me what’s happening now globally is a realignment.

Rubio basically told the Europeans they have a major problem but their efforts must be restorative. They can’t keep importing military aged men from foreign counties if they want to keep their culture.

LENT IS COMING

You are to fast and pray in whatever way during Lent that helps you spiritually.

It isn’t about fasting harder and telling your neighbor how terrible they are for fasting.

Stop lording over what you are doing.

You also don’t make YOUR fasting or what you are doing a burden to those around you.

AUDIO/VIDEO: Marco Rubio at Munich Security Conference – The United Nations still has tremendous potential to be a tool for good in the world but we cannot ignore that today, on the most pressing matters before us, it has no answers and has played virtually no role. It could not solve the war in Gaza. Instead it was American leaders that brought back captives and brought about a fragile truce. It has not solved the war in Ukraine, it took American leadership and partnership still in search of a peace. It was unable to address the narco-terrorist in Venezuela. In a perfect world this would all have been solved by diplomats writing strongly worded letters, but we do no live in a perfect world. And we cannot continue to allow those that threaten us to remain shielded. This is the path Americans are on.

You are not going to get this nuance with the alpha male that is Trump.

You are going to get the statesmanship from someone like Rubio.

To undo what Obama and Biden and the Clintons have done, you have to have, and look I don’t care who this offends, you have to have alpha male leadership.

It must be brutally honest and it should be stern.

It needs to be well grounded in Western Civilization and faith.

AUDIO/VIDEO: Marco Rubio at Munich Security Conference – National Security, is not merely a series of technical questions. How much we spend on defense and where are important questions but they are not the fundamental one. The fundamental question we must answer is ‘what exactly are we defending’? Because armies, do not fight for abstractions. Armies fight for a people. Armies fight for a nation. Armies fight for a way of life and that is what we are defending. A great civilization that has every reason to be proud of its history.

These people wish to devour you.

They don’t want to make common cause.

If we had sane people that truly had the main interest of the citizen, we would have TWO parties trying to Make America Great Again.

They would debate the existence of the IRS.

They would discuss fraud and abuse and waste.

How do you make America great again?

At the end of the day it is all about the people.

The great battle is a moral one.

AUDIO/VIDEO: Marco Rubio at Munich Security Conference – For 5 centuries, before the end of the 2nd WW, the West had been expanding. It’s missionaries, soldiers pouring out crossing oceans extending out across the globe. In 1945 for the first time since the age of Columbus it was contracting. The great Western Empires had entered into terminal decline accelerated by Godless Communist revolutions. Against that backdrop, many came to believe the Wests age of dominance had come to an end. Together our predecessors recognized decline was a choice. We don’t want our allies to be shackled in guilt and shame. This is why we don’t want allies to maintain the broken status quo. We, in America, have no interest in being polite and orderly caretakers of the West’s managed decline.

This is Trump speaking, it is not Rubio.

Now Rubio is in agreement with him, this is true. But he is a representative of the Trump administration.

BACK TO ROD DREHER

“It is hard to overstate how badly the president’s intemperate and insulting remarks have been received in Europe — and, the thing that concerns me the most, is how damaging they have been to the electoral prospects of nationalist-sovereigntist parties on the Continent. A prominent French conservative journalist lamented to me last week that with the French Right — the RN, not the squishy Right — having become the leading party in France, next year’s election will likely be fought over, incredibly, Donald Trump. As stupid as it sounds — as stupid as it actually is! — the emotional power of the figure of Trump over European voters is a real thing. It can’t be wished away. The president’s big mouth stands to do to all these parties — parties whose accession to government would dramatically be in America’s interest — what it did to poor Pierre Poilievre in Canada.” – Dreher

If you want to win an election here in the US and you are the party in power, act like it and you will win.

WORLD WAR MAGA

Steve Bannon

Martin M writes me an email and says….do you see a Steve Bannon pattern? I would be he played a similar strategy at Sirius/XM.

This is the key point I have been making.

We were asked to put skins on the wall when I worked for Sirius.

I thanked them even out the door.

What is Sirius gaining by keeping me off the air?

Certainly not the interest of the sales department and the listeners.

How are the stockholders being served by keeping me off air?

If you can come to that conclusion, how long did they keep Bannon there?

He took my audience of 13 years and destroyed it in 5 months then quit to go help run the Trump campaign.

If it doesn’t make monetary sense, then what sense does it make?

So when I get a note like this from an outside observer I take notice.

Bannon didn’t have an actual body of work to show Sirius.

They are pandering to and preference to an Epstein affiliate requires at minimum a statement.

Bannon and Brietbart didn’t want anyone having access to you.

I talked to Bannon at TPUSA and he acted as if he had no idea who I was.

There is no way he and Sirius can be allowed no confrontation on this.

Sirius played a role in all of this too.

I know there will be people to say this is just sour grapes TKD!

In 1997 Bud Paxton owned the largest family run operation in Florida at that time. He owned TV and radio stations.
