The Man Who Might Wreck The Country

The zeitgeist is a rough beast, hard to ride as it slouches into the unknown. Our country is trying to hang on while a party of goblins vexes and needles the beast from behind, and you cannot make them stop.

The irony is that if it were not due in large part to Winston’s strenuous efforts and fearless leadership during WWII the culprit would not be able to do anything of this sort because the Wehrmacht would be holding annual victory parades goose-stepping down the Mall, the SS would have eliminated anyone likely to commit such a disrespectful act and any subversives left would have been introduced to the Gestapo.

'My own employees ... had downloaded software on my phone': Kristi Noem claims Elon Musk helped expose spyware inside DHS

1 week 6 days ago


Though the Department of Homeland Security has achieved some success in deporting illegal aliens, it has always been met with resistance — both on the street and in the department itself.

In an interview with podcaster Patrick Bet-David this week, DHS Secretary Kristi Noem revealed the depth of some of the problems her department has been facing and the people who have helped her fight the alleged corruption.

'They helped me identify that some of my own employees in my department had downloaded software on my phone and my laptop to spy on me.'

"You wouldn't even believe what I've found since I've been in this department," Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem said on the "PBD Podcast" this week.

"I just found the other day a whole room on this campus that was a secret SCIF — secure facility — that had files nobody knew existed. So we just happened to have an employee walk by a door and wonder what it was and started asking questions. We went in there. There was individuals working there that had secret files that nobody knew about on some of these most controversial topics."

"Now I've got that turned over to attorneys, and we're getting to the bottom of what exactly happened there."

Noem also claimed that her devices were compromised but that Elon Musk's tech team helped expose the software that was compromising her privacy.

"Elon and his team were extremely helpful to me. They helped me identify that some of my own employees in my department had downloaded software on my phone and my laptop to spy on me, to record our meetings. They had done that to several of the politicals."

"Unbelievable," Bet-David said as she recounted the story.

Noem stressed that they would still probably have that software installed had it not been for Musk and his team. As a result, she said, "One of the things I need to do and continue to do is partner with technology companies and experts to bring them in and help us."

"I always believed when people talked about the deep state before that it existed. I never would have dreamed that it was as bad as it is."

Boston Bruins players cave over Trump phone call: 'Certainly sorry' — 'we should have reacted differently'

1 week 6 days ago


The two Boston Bruins players who represented the United States at the 2026 Olympics have succumbed to media pressure.

Seemingly every player from Team USA's gold medal-winning men's hockey team is facing a struggle session from local reporters who are asking them why they laughed at a joke made by President Trump.

'Certainly not reflective of how we feel and look at them and their accomplishments.'

When the president called the men's locker room after they defeated Canada 2-1 on Sunday, he invited the team to the State of the Union as well as to the White House before making a wisecrack about also inviting the women's gold medal team.

"We're going to have to bring the women's team," the president joked, adding that he "probably would be impeached" if he didn't.

Since then, the league-wide hunt for unauthorized laughter has commenced, and some players are starting to show cracks in their armor.

Bruins players were seemingly the first to show significant regret for laughing with the president, starting with goalie Jeremy Swayman. The Team USA backup goalie called it an "incredible honor" to attend the State of the Union but then told reporters that the team should have had a different reaction to the phone call.

"We should have reacted differently," Swayman said from the locker room on Wednesday. "We know that we are so excited for the women's team. We have so much respect for the women's team, and to share that gold medal with them is something that we're forever grateful for."

The Alaskan added, "Now that we're home, we get to share that together forever and see the incredible support that we have from the USA and sharing this incredible gold medal."

On Thursday, it was more of the same from Bruins defenseman Charlie McAvoy, a 28-year-old New Yorker who also suited up for the United States.

McAvoy said he was "certainly sorry for how we responded to it in that moment," before qualifying that there were "things that just happened really quick there."

The longtime Bruin told reporters that the relationship between the men's and women's teams is incredibly strong, and their reaction to the president's joke was "certainly not reflective of how we feel and look at them and their accomplishments."

On the subject of his visit to the White House, McAvoy revealed he had always told himself that such an opportunity was one he would never miss.

"Just the history of that building, the history of this country. You know, if I get a chance to go to ... I was certainly going to go."

Trump's remarks have caused a meltdown among sports reporters, who have incessantly sought comment from the male and female athletes in question.

In response, Team USA women's captain Hilary Knight lectured her countrymen during interviews this week, describing the backlash as being a "teaching point."

Knight also called the joke "distasteful and unfortunate," before saying the male players had a "lapse" in judgment by laughing at Trump's remarks.
