19DEC2019 – American Greatness Post of the Day – Angelo Codevilla – For Whom the New Rules?
Codevilla addresses the new reality of the Deep State justifying extra-legal activities based on bureaucratic authority
https://amgreatness.com/2019/12/18/for-whom-the-new-rules/
His point is if the Deep State agents who committed these crimes aren’t punished then the Republicans will have to embrace the same tactics purely out of self defense. That is the same slippery slope that led the Romans to dictatorship.
05DEC2019 – American Greatness Post of the Day – Impeachment is Backfiring in the Midwest – Matt Batzel
It’s always nice to see some numbers that confirm what you think is going on. Wisconsin, Minnesota, Michigan don’t seem to think Schiff is doing the country any favors.

09SEP2019 – American Greatness Post of the Day – Biden or Bust by VDH
Victor Davis Hanson apparently agrees with my guess that Creepy Uncle Joe is the Dems choice for least likely to frighten off the marginally sane portion of their voters.

Well, good. I was starting to feel self-conscious with all the Fauxcahantas talk. And we deserve to have Joe at the debates. I think he’ll charge Trump’s lectern and will have to be tranq darted by his own Secret Service team to prevent Trump’s larger Secret Service team from handling him themselves.
27AUG2019 – American Greatness Post of the Day – Small-Business Men Get a Front-Row Seat for Everyday Life by Salena Zito
Here’s a feel good post by Salena Zito. She travels around some of the small town areas of the country, many of them in the red areas of the purple states like Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin where Trump voters live. Actual Americans who live in actual communities. Read it if you need a lift.

24JUL2019 – American Greatness Post of the Day – Sorting Out the New Color Wheel by Anthony Esolen
Here’s a fun mockery of the concept of racial entitlement. As an Italian American of southern extraction I chuckled at the idea that somehow Elizabeth Warren was mistaken for a “woman of color” but I was oviously just an undeserving white man.

My favorite line, “In America today, a family legend that a thrice-great-uncle was or may have been part cigar store Indian wins you some points for enrollment at Harvard.”
14JUN2019 – American Greatness Post of the Day – A Conservative Resistance? By Angelo Codevilla
Talking ’bout revolution!
https://amgreatness.com/2019/06/13/a-conservative-resistance/
Okay! Codevilla is openly considering whether the red states should start emulating the blue states. If the blue states openly defy drug laws then what if the red states defy the laws they disagree with; abortion, homosexuality, pornography, etc. Of course you see how this goes downhill fast. The next round on their side would be the 1st and 2nd amendments. Codevilla is fast approaching the dissident right’s positions, if not from a philosophical perspective then at least from a tactical and practical perspective.
Well, if that went forward, things would definitely accelerate and I might have to move sooner than I expected. Ahhh, I’m tired of snow anyway.

13JUN2019 – American Greatness Post of the Day – Finding America at a Back-Roads Gas Station by Salena Zito
Salena Zito always has a good read. This one is a feel good account of breaking down in small town America. Nothing profound but it might brighten your morning or remind you of a similar moment.

11JUN2019 – American Greatness Post of the Day – Trump’s America: No Country for Illegal Aliens By Pedro Gonzalez
This is a short article but it specifies the actual steps already being taken by Mexico.
The Mexican government on Wednesday arrested 350 Central Americans, including two prominent “migrant rights” activists, who were part of a large group headed toward the United States. Mexico is also planning to deploy an additional 6,000 national guard troops to its border with Guatemala.
It gets better.
The day after those activists were arrested, the Mexican Finance Ministry froze the bank accounts of 26 individuals for their alleged involvement in facilitating migrant caravans to the United States from Central America.

Sounds like the real deal and not just lip service. President Trump’s threat of tariffs is brilliant indeed. When he said Mexico would build the wall this is how he meant it. Leverage.
Of course, you always have to add, check back in a couple of weeks and see if it sticks but it’s definitely a winning strategy to use financial leverage to tame your enemies.
20MAY2019 – American Greatness Post of the Day – Notes on the Great Realignment by Roger Kimball
I haven’t even finished this essay but I can already recommend it. Kimball looks at the Never-Trumpers’ reaction to President Trump meeting with Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán and then talks about the reality of Orban himself. https://amgreatness.com/2019/05/18/notes-on-the-great-realignment/
Things going on in Europe are important because they reinforce the global nature of the attack on normalcy going on everywhere by our beneficent masters. Coordinating with our allies in Europe and elsewhere must be especially frightening to the Hive.
Max Boot seems to primarily exist as an example of hypocritical idiocy. He can’t actually believe the things he says but he is stupid enough to believe we’ll buy his lies.
