The Soros secret                                          

Hollywood's John Cusack, producer Larry David, and Harvard Law Professor emeritus Lawrence Tribe are only the latest leftists to deceitfully smear President Donald Trump as comparable to megalomanial National Socialist Adolf Hitler. 

Despite its groundlessness, the Nazi slur is a rhetorical gimcrack favored by loosely wrapped shriekers; they wield it to defame and intimidate ideological adversaries.

This writer submits there is a whale of a difference between the common-sense president and the 1930s genocidal madman Hitler - a vile monster with whose shadow the contemporary Left is tickled to align itself.

Multibillionaire George Soros is a gilded patron of hideous interests like Planned Parenthood, abolition of national borders and sovereignty, and the racial discord urged by scowling separatists. Too, he contributes mightily to Democrat candidates, and is alleged to be among major bankrollers of protests that target President Trump and Elon Musk, and that demand Israel's elimination and champion Hamas terrorists.

A dessicated Mr. Toad, Soros is said to manipulate the world's peoples and international permutations like a reptilian-blooded chess player. His amoral machinations are calculated in a mostly obscured shadowland in which he is safeguarded 24/7 by a kept mercenary army.

Left-wing activists who avail themselves of his largesse are connected, wittingly or not, to actual Nazis of the Third Reich era.

As a 14 year-old during that deplorable interval, Soros pretended to be Christian and accompanied Nazi death-camp guards as they confiscated doomed Jewish prisoners' valuables. Even decades after that shameful, loathsome reality, Soros expressed no compunction.

60 Minutes host Steve Kroft interviewed him for a December 29, 1998 profile.

KROFT: "My understanding is that you went out with this protector of yours who swore that you were his adopted grandson. Went out, in fact, and helped in the confiscation of property from the Jews."

SOROS: "Yes. That's right. Yes."

KROFT: "I mean, that sounds like an experience that would send lots of people to the psychiatric couch for many, many years. Was it difficult?"

SOROS: "No. Not at all, not at all. Maybe as a child, you don't see the connection. But it was - created no problem, at all."

KROFT: "No feeling of guilt?"

SOROS: "No."

KROFT: "For example, 'I'm Jewish and here I am, watching these people go. I could just as easily be there. I should be there.' None of that?"

SOROS: "Well, of course, I could be on the other side, or I could be the one from whom the thing is being taken away. But there was no sense that I shouldn't be there, because that was - well, actually, in a funny way, it's just like in markets. That if I wasn't there - of course, I wasn't doing it, but somebody else would be taking it away, anyhow. 

"And it was the - whether I was there or not, I was only a spectator. The property was being taken away. So I had no role in taking that property. So I had no guilt."

Today, unsurprisingly, the left-wing magnate's Open Societies webpage makes no mention of this despicable truth. Instead, it hails Soros' surviving that horrendous time and burbles about his subsequent determination to better world conditions.

No one can condemn a callow 14 year-old for acting out of self-interest when in a terrifying circumstance. But Soros was of greatly advanced age when speaking to 60 Minutes, and he still evidenced zero conscience.

Because he has long aimed a gushing dollar-hose into subversive Left pockets, though, progressive pretenders at moral scrupulousness never shrink from him.

When next you hear of office-ensconced politicos, entertainment industry quislings, media charlatans, or violent Democrat street-rioters falsely labeling President Trump, Elon Musk, or the millions of MAGA stalwarts as "Nazis," remember with whom those same morally fetid liars disgustingly choose to share bedspace.

Tom Hanks hates you          

It bears remembering that many show-business monkeys earn their status by catering to callow customers. Given that, braying whatever titillates that wet-eared market is probably judicious business reckoning, crucial to currying buyer favor. As goes the saw: The customer is always right.

Some publicly subversive limelighters may seize different levers in the voting-booth's cover.

But the above does not explain Tom Hanks. He hosts Barack Hussein Obama on his yacht in the south of France, and likely is sincere in his foulness.

In early 2016, Hanks said of then-candidate Donald Trump: "I think that man will become president of the United States right around the time that spaceships come down filled with dinosaurs in red capes."

President Trump is now in his second term.

Today's headlines tell of Hanks, on last week's Saturday Night Live 50th anniversary broadcast, mocking the tens of millions of Americans who buoyed Donald Trump to the Resolute Desk. 

Tiresomely, SNL writers and Hanks dragged out the threadbare stereotype of Trump supporters as drawling, white racist hayseeds of minimal intellect.

(An earlier iteration of this false and demeaning depiction was Obama's 2008 dismissal of working-class voters: "[T]hey cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them..." the then-president trumpeted.)

Unfortunately common are entertainment luminaries who evince tremendous talents at their crafts but who, regarding political and cultural matters, seem to have skulls jam-packed with yellowish diarrhea.

Addle-pated though they be, they have no less right to opine on substantive topics than does the present writer. Free speech is a crucial factor in individual liberty, nevermind that most outspoken celebrities tend toward imbecility.

As Vice-President Vance recently declared in Europe: "In Washington, there is a new sheriff in town, and under Donald Trump’s leadership, we may disagree with your views, but we will fight to defend your right to offer it in the public square, agree or disagree."

No one disputes Hollywood subversives' right to spew inanities. Still, one wishes they would heed Laura I.'s admonition: Shut up and sing.

As for Tom Hanks, he should have stayed on that island.

The fabrication called Kamala

Joe Biden received some 14 million 2024 primary votes, but that mattered not to Democrat elites. They shoved the warhorse party loyalist into oncoming traffic and installed identity box-checker Kamala Harris. 

If party bosses reasoned grassroots donkeys would acquiesce, they were proven correct. 'Vote blue, no matter who' sorts immediately hefted Harris and her radical running-mate "Tampon Tim" atop shoulders.

As the adage holds: If you want loyalty, buy a dog.

Kamala Harris is the most laboratory concocted presidential aspirant that has ever clambered onto a stump. A maniken, albeit an ever-giggling one.

Not that she doesn't have beliefs and ideals. She does. Those include abolishing private heath-insurance in favor of government-run care, defunding police, abolishing ICE, granting citizenship to millions of illegal aliens (whose votes would dilute those of legitimate citizens), letting males invade females' sports-teams and privacy, limiting Americans' red-meat consumption, legislating chemical and surgical "gender-affirming care" for children, and mandating that every American driver must operate an electric vehicle.

Should Harris ascend to White House occupancy, the real subversive would leap into the spotlight. But for now, those orchestrating her effort hide her extremist ideology, calculating that a false image is more viable. 

1 - As noted above, she was not chosen in a democratic primary where participants had the opportunity to consider her against competitors and their ideas. Harris was installed by Washington powerbrokers who underscore irrelevant characteristics. 

2 - Her campaign coordinators had her scripted and staged phone-calls to the Obamas and Walz filmed for public release. Of course Harris giggled throughout. Some people do laugh at their own jokes.

3 - The cynical game-players manipulating Harris apparently insist that the candidate avoid press conferences, only read contrived remarks (written by others) from teleprompters, and allow her name to be put on calculated, staff-drafted statements.

4 - She has flip-flopped on numerous issues, claiming more palatable positions than she is on record as having previously enunciated. (But to her handlers' certain dismay, damning video evidence abounds online.) As of this writing, she has stolen two Trump proposals: No tax on tips and a child tax credit. Additional thefts and flip-flops by her will surely follow, should those choreographing her effort deem them situationally advantageous

5 - Just days ago, the Harris/Walz campaign mounted an event at Primanti Bros sandwich shop in Moon Township, Pennsylvania. Prior to filming, actual patrons were reportedly  booted from the premises and replaced with actors who pretended to be sandwich shop customers and who hailed artificial Harris.

(One recalls that the vice-president once sat for filming while telling several 'schoolchildren' about space. The kids were subsequently revealed to be actors hired for the stunt.)

6 - To date, zero policy proposals appear on Harris's website. No issues are even mentioned. That amorphousness allows her to evade definition. Sympathetic media voices urge her to avoid specifics that might prove damaging.

She is a woke action-figure that can be postured however best advances the interests of the left-wing machine that puts her forward and that would calculate policies, should she prevail.

Some contrary commentators opine that small Harris campaign-event crowds mean equally few will vote for her in November. But while liberal voters may find her uninspirational and so stay away, their irrational hatred of Trump will likely engender large election turnout. Remember, Biden's 2020 events also drew smatterings, but his eventual poll endorsements were far greater in amount. 

In November, people will vote for Harris despite being unimpressed with her. They despise Trump and MAGA Americans with so strong and irrational a passion that they would sooner endorse America's continued ruination than see our country improved by Trump.

And if that means devoting precious ballots to a fabrication, so be it.
