I have two themes running in today’s post. Number 1: if you elect stupid ideologues, you can expect stupid ideology driven results. Number 2: If you support individuals with good old common sense, then you can expect results that echo common sense.
1. The Marxist Democratic Party now owns the current government shutdown.

2. Des Moines, Iowa is Iowa’s largest city and has the state’s largest school district. Although the state is often considered a conservative bastion, it is not. Marxists have been on the move for decades and own the educational establishment. The scandal going on with the Des Moines, Iowa School District is as follows. Last week, ICE arrested the now former superintendent of the district, Dr. Ian Roberts. Agents found a hunting knife, loaded hand gun, and $3,000 cash in Dr. Roberts vehicle after a chase. Dr. Roberts was born in Guyana, South America and last entered the U.S. legally in 1999 on a student visa. Dr. Roberts has not had a valid work authorization since 2020. In May 2024, Dr. Roberts was a no show for his final immigration hearing and a deportation order was handed down. In 2023, the Des Moines School District put out a nationwide search for a superintendent. Dr. Roberts was hired and obtained a license for the job from the Iowa Board of Educational Examiners before his July 2023 start date. Currently, the entertainment is in watching everybody point the finger at everyone else for failure to vet Dr. Roberts properly. The Chair of the Des Moines School Board, Jackie Norris, who is running on the Democratic Ticket for an Iowa U.S. Senate seat next year, has been out and about asking the public to tone down the rhetoric while bloviating about radical empathy and restorative justice. Jackie is a true Woketopia warrior. Additionally, illegal alien Dr. Ian Roberts has been a registered Democratic voter in the State of Maryland since 2012. Didn’t Democrats tell us illegal aliens never vote in federal U.S. elections? Yet again, another conspiracy theory has been proven true.
This infamous illegal has been a registered Democrat ‘US’ voter for 13 years…

3. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth rocks. He gathered his top dogs together in D.C. this week and told them how things are. Common sense rules the military. There is now ONE standard for combat readiness and the standard applies equally to everyone. If a woman can perform the physical duties required for combat readiness, then she is one of the team. If she cannot, then she will be reassigned. It’s as simple as that.

4. Gotta love the State of Oklahoma. The Oklahoma State Police partnered with ICE last month conducing an Operation Guardian sweep along Interstate 40 in western Oklahoma. More than 120 illegal aliens were caught driving 18 wheelers with CDL’s issued by sanctuary states. The State of New York managed to issue a CDL with “no name given” inscribed on the line where a name should have appeared.

Update to Monday’s post – Senator Dick Durbin has declined to receive a Lifetime Achievement Award from Cardinal Cupich of the Archdiocese of Chicago at a November fundraising event. The award was causing consternation among both Catholic priests and laity as Senator Durbin is an ardent supporter of abortion. p2d
