EARLIER AMERICAN SPIRIT/MAGAWORLD UPDATES:
Jan-May, 2025; Jan-May, 2024; June-Dec, 2024; Jan-May, 2023, June-Dec, 2023; Jan-May, 2022; June-Dec, 2022; June-Dec, 2021; Oct, 2020-May, 2021
UPDATE 8/21/25: When things get bad enough (as they did beginning with the unthinkable election of The Great Divider Obama in 2008), nature dictates an equal, opposite reaction. That reaction has been the gift of DJT, a most welcome, invincible force of nature amazingly up to the Herculean task of Making America Great Again.
UPDATE 8/20/25: White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles has been characterized as some dragon lady or treacherous RINO mole, but interviewed by Miranda Devine, she comes off as nothing less than an iron-clad model of competence and loyal mainstay for her boss and his mission.
UPDATE 8/21/25: Essential to getting American greatness on track again is the restoration of accurate, honestly balanced history, not the wantonly politicized slant of Woke. Happily, our museums, beginning with the Smithsonian, are purging themselves of this self-hating rot and presenting things as they actually have been, both good and bad, not the relentlessly subversive rant of Leftist radicals.
UPDATE 8/20/25: Like the rousing WINNING AND MORE WINNING montage, we re-offer the classic montage that perfectly captures the night TDS slowly, slowly then more rapidly and finally uncontrollably was released into the collective Leftist bloodstream. It remains a most momentous turning point in our history, still a source of hilarity and, admittedly, Schadenfreude of wild proportions. In the decade since, Trump’s election has panned out to be the miraculous restoration we’ve voted for and an ongoing nightmare for the TDS mob.
Normies chuckle as Prog/Woke heads explode en masse. A consequence of too much winning…and a humorless, loser mentality on the other side.
UPDATE 8/14/25: Sorry [I’m lying] to hear TDS black hole Media Matters is on the verge of financial collapse, another Leftist hate dispensing machine running on empty, going broke on Woke as public opinion blessedly moves away & back to reality-Bye bye, Colbert! Bye, Bye, Howard! MAYBE it’s Bye Bye ViewHags (The heart leaps!). That said, special gratitude is due this dismal, dying Progressive rag for simply quoting (without editorial comment!) Matt Walsh’s passionately patriotic tutorial (constructed to send half of the electorate to the local asylum) answering the question, “What Is An American?” No doubt they think his words are so evil that they do their hatchet job for them. Au contraire.
Eloquently delivered, an inspiration to lovers of America; to the stubbornly Woke, as welcome as the dentist’s drill.
UPDATE 7/29/25: DJT’s swing through Scotland was a rather productive one, actually impacting not just his mother’s birth place but the entire European continent and our daffy Canadian neighbors who will either LEARN BY HIS GUIDANCE & EXAMPLE or perish from the self-abuse of stupid, decidedly evil ideas. So much for TACO (Trump Always Chickens Out). It’s TAW (Trump Always Wins).
YMCA!!
UPDATE 7/27/25: Grinning and winning. Winning and grinning.
UPDATE 7/25/25: Trump’s tariffs are working to our advantage, and the economy is roaring. The Japanese trade deal has been rightly deemed the Great Dealmaker’s latest “masterpiece.” Likewise, Australia has lifted a 20 year ban on American beef allowing billions to flood both ways from a bit of free & fair trade.
The Supreme Court, despite the usual obstructions & doubts from the usual suspects, is upholding Trump’s efforts to ban the Dem Party’s cynical “anchor baby” strategy of expanding their voter rolls, bringing to the fore more of the woefully distorted concept of Being An American. Spoiler alert: it’s more than just a matter of being a legal U.S. citizen.
And then (if you can stand MORE winning), Tulsi Gabbard has a little update on “Russia! Russia! Russia! Lately, that’s pivoted briefly to “Epstein! Epstein! Epstein!”, but one can optimistically expect that to turn out equally well for the TDSers. There is no satisfaction so great these days as more winning.
Well, not so good for Deep State spook Brennan. No grinning and winning here.
Relying upon the MSM, you’d never know that the news is good. Quel surprise!
UPDATE 7/23/25: Common sense works everywhere. Take for example, Argentina.
UPDATE 7/20/25: Trump’s presence on the scene is a gift handed all Americans and lovers of liberty that won’t come again. His flaws and utterly unique approach to life as both a business and contact sport will, despite all hateful opposition, provide a legacy from which we are already benefiting and destined to carry over far beyond our lifetimes. Paraphrasing Miss Davis, that equally larger-than-life American icon, it’s going to be a bumpy ride…but a heroic one for the ages, well worth the bumps.
UPDATE 7/18/25: Trump’s order to release the Epstein grand jury transcripts appears to be a welcome reconsideration that should, in a short time, put this PR blunder and uproar in the rear view mirror. Following thru on this pledge, the honestly curious will have to wait and see while the loyal MAGA base continues to support fulfillment of Trump’s overriding campaign promise of full exposure, investigation and justice served on a host of wrongdoers-rich, powerful, corrupt-not only connected with the sordid Epstein dirt but across the board.
NO MORE LENIENCY OR DELAYED ATTENTION to such major outrages as the Covid catastrophe, Election, 2020 fraud & ensuing J6 tyranny, Russiagate, the assassination attempts, the politically-driven obstruction by rogue judges, legal imposition of gender madness/DEI edicts from DC nullifying basic Constitutional rights…to name but a few criminal actions from the recent past. With full exposure of those provably guilty followed by suitable punishment, the unsettling Epstein bump in the MAGA road can be behind us, “liberty & justice for all” an established fact and permanent standard, not a meaningless recitation.
Rough, dirty doings soon behind, clear road ahead?
UPDATE 7/11/25: It is not arrogance but a healthy contact with and common sense response to reality that accurately describes the Trump/MAGA base as “We the normal.”
UPDATE 7/12/25: Yes, this will just continue to make them even crazier.
UPDATE 7/4/25: Elon’s serious displeasure with things notwithstanding (and contrary to the expected fake news reports), the OBBB is a big, beautiful winner for Americans, starting with a substantial tax break for Joe & Jane Main Street, not simply a “tax break for billionaires” as the Dems (themselves heavily funded by nasty “oligarchs) love to claim. The falsehoods about Medicaid cuts are equally misrepresented by the usual suspects. Benefits far outweigh the inevitable risks & deficiencies, and the likelihood of a long term economic explosion thanks to permanent tax cuts is perhaps the best news of all.
UPDATE 7/1/25: Making Independence Day Great Again!! Looking ahead to the Big 250 a year from now, we are seeing to no one’s surprise that Trump will be putting his own distinctive stamp on the proceedings, to the total delight of what is now probably more than half (and growing) of a revived, optimistic American public…and the utter despair of the other half. Warning! Stand clear of all those exploding TDS heads!
UPDATE 6/25/25: Obliterating Iran’s nuclear capability promises to be just one of many high points in the next four years of campaign promises kept. The man is setting a high standard for himself, an aspect of a remarkable personality already fated to leave an historical mark of profound value.
He keeps making them crazy while the rest of us just celebrate winning and being American.
UPDATE 6/20/25: Trump’s decisive entry into the Israel-Iran fray should be met with gratitude by all Americans conscious of the perils posed not only to the Middle East but to the entire world. This is not the questionable hearsay undermining the WMD debacle of the post-9/11 Bush administration. While DJT’s panicked detractors claim to see a malevolent “King,” sensible Americans applaud a leader and a dedicated team that recognizes real danger and decisively acts to dispatch its source. Count on the loudest noise after the fact being denial from the usual suspects that there was ever any real danger at all. In the meantime, profound thanks to DJT & his loyal teammates.
UPDATE 6/3/25: Going back to the roots of commonsensical, American conservatism, we have Bill Buckley to thank for an alternative to suicidal Leftism.
UPDATE 6/4/25: Trump’s re-election seems a miracle after the BrandonWorld fiasco, and his goals are the stuff of a new American golden age. However, fanatic opposition has already shown that the path to those goals won’t be a straight line. Is DJT’s restoration just a respite from decline & fall or are we bound for great things again?
