EARLIER AMERICAN SPIRIT/MAGAWORLD UPDATES:
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
Is MAGA alive and well? Can America be great again, or are we a civilization in free fall?
MAY OUR BEST DAYS LIE JUST AHEAD.
God protect him…and America.
Right here-home, sweet home-facing east, every morning as day dawns. Acquired in 2016 in a tchotchke shop in London, right across from Harrod’s, the welcome clicking sound of Donald going into his daily sun dance has provided (particularly since 2020) an inspiring sense that somehow this Energizer Bunny/Phoenix, like the sun itself, was not about to stop rising.
OOOO!! Stop! Stop! I can’t stand it!! Well, actually, yes I can.
ELON & DOGE. We’re all in for quite the adventurous ride.
Who would you prefer watching your kids: Donald or Joe? Kamala perhaps? Tampon Tim?
UPDATE 4/11/25: Tariff hysteria is heading to the back burner as the market insists it’s not dead, and dozens of nations line up to negotiate good deals with The Donald. Markets will do good things for investors excited by positive results, not empty promises. Meanwhile, the TDS crowd continues to sob over any good news from MAGAWorld.
UPDATE 4/11/25: Trump’s vision of a re-industrialized, self-sufficient America provides hope to those betrayed by a Dem Party that has owned them for 60 years: the blue collar workers whose jobs have gone to China and Mexico, the shattered Black families destroyed by welfare culture. God willing, the surprising turn-out for Trump by minority and blue-collar men and the success of his economic policies are just a preface to what promises to be a genuine American renaissance…to the everlasting despair & befuddlement of a dying, dense, corrupted Dem Party.
Dem empty promises just so much trash, a void now being filled by MAGA.
UPDATE 4/5/25: Wring your hands, follow the hysterical mob or go with the guy who has the nerve to do what all his predecessors needed to do but feared doing. And what needs doing is compelling foreign countries to lower their exorbitant tariffs at which point we are ready to graciously match them, tit for tat. THEY are already able to make profits selling their products here thanks to OUR relatively low tariffs while WE foolishly allow ourselves to operate at a deficit selling to them thanks to THEIR ridiculously inflated tariffs. No longer. America First, right?
Nope. It’s Blame America First. Or rather, blame Trump first. He is the bad guy even though it’s all their choice, not ours. Don’t count on a rational response from an irrational world, and that includes spooked Wall Street and its stockholders all villainizing Trump for finally ending OUR self-negating policies in international trade.
No good deed goes unpunished. Blame Trump First.
UPDATE 4/5/25: As someone has written, there have been more opinions spouted this week about TARIFFS than there are grains of sand on the beach. Out of the veritable tidal wave of confusion and anxiety washing over us, a single approach offers up a comforting mix of hard realism and justifiable optimism: drop your tariffs, we drop ours. Long live free trade! Those nations early to sign up to Trump’s offer get to do business today in America at the lowest rates; the hold-outs will risk missing out on the bargains currently offered. Remember who wrote The Art Of The Deal?
It’s been on his mind for a LONG time. This is 1988.
UPDATE 4/3/25: It’s been an unsettling week or two with a Wisconsin election (and resultant gerrymandering) threatening in short order to return the House to the Dems. Lawfare obstruction from planted activist stooges in the lower judiciary continues to pop up against anything that moves from the White House. The Dems have gleefully deputized violence-prone, useful idiot lowlifes in their ranks to trash Teslas and intimidate their owners. “Respectable” Dems, pretending to be above such messiness, quietly yearn for ANY Trump failure that might enable a return to the good old Woke wrecking ball days of BrandonWorld. Of primary concern: Will awakened new Trump voters who got him elected prove shaky and flee back to the dark Blue side come the midterms?
Most troubling of all, after a three month honeymoon of repeated winning, there is now a fissure within the MAGA base thanks to “tariffs.” Most of us are not versed in the ways of hardball economics, and it’s imperative that the administration go overboard to make things clear and instill confidence in this roll of the dice.
O’Reilly provides a blessedly clear explanation for the big gamble Trump is taking with this upheaval, a move bolder than any taken by a White House occupant since Teddy Roosevelt brandished his Big Stick against the Robber Barons…and won. The issue is whether America will continue to allow foreign products to be affordable here while our own exports are made unaffordable by the tariffs and regulations imposed by those same countries taking home billions (trillions!) from their American sales.
To add insult to injury, those same countries like China & Mexico, profiting mightily from relatively low tariffs entering American markets, have managed to lure American investment and production to themselves by providing cheap labor, sometimes literally unpaid slave labor. Trump’s vision is to bring back those businesses and investment en masse in determined pursuit of a reborn, industrialized, self-sufficient America. We’ll still be happy to buy coffee from Guatemala and cheap tchotchkes from China, so no seller need go without a consumer. We just won’t be operating at a loss while they thrive.
Will it work? Or are we doomed to a jittery electorate stupidly ceding power back to the Dem/globalist alliance itching to resume its plans for “Transformation,” reducing America permanently to a quiet, subservient place alongside every other enslaved nation overseen on the WEF plantation?
An awful lot riding on this one.
UPDATE 4/2/25: It’s easier to dig a deep hole than climbing out of one. This is the plight of the welfare/government subsidized state aka socialism which America started shooting up like heroin beginning early in the last century. Now addicted to government hand-outs, too many Americans find themselves panicked at the necessity of earning their livelihoods in the private sector. No wonder the Left is finding it so easy to rile up the mindless masses against Elon/Doge and Trump/tariffs despite the fact that, given the chance for full implementation, this vision will provide an abundance of good jobs, low taxes and lower costs for Mr. & Mrs. Average American.
Previous Presidents who very well knew better never have taken these bold and necessary steps precisely because of the short-term political risks: a shaky stock market and outcry over the loss of government subsidies. Going even against many on our side, does one dare believe that it is time to throw that caution aside? Naturally, the predictable fearmongers in DC and their lapdog media have everything to gain from Trump’s failure and are busy spreading outright lies, claiming Social Security and Medicare are on the chopping block. But then we all know how Dems love to lie and push panic buttons. They operate exclusively on fear and division in service to absolute power.
This clip from President Trump may be the most important from the entire Rose Garden speech.
Yes, the markets are going be jittery in the coming days, weeks, and months. But those same people telling Trump he's wrong, have been wrong about nearly every major geopolitical and… pic.twitter.com/QWczwW0bBZ

Ben Shapiro expresses well the doubts even diehard MAGA supporters have regarding the tariffs. BUT he gives Trump the benefit of the doubt based on his long history of being a flexible, results-oriented dealmaker. Likewise, other articulate pundits confidently state there is a highly refined method to what seems to be madness, refusing to panic reflexively at dips in the market. Lacking a crystal ball, the rest of us hold our collective breath and hope for the best. If things clearly aren’t working, one hopes he can shift course without sacrificing the mission, ultimately proving all doubters wrong.
Honest doubters include all those who want what’s best for our country, not those mired so deeply in TDS-fueled hatred that they couldn’t applaud a Trump-supporting 13 year old cancer survivor or wish success for a politician totally focused on bringing a war to an end, removing hardened criminals from our midst, restoring common sense and rationality (eg., the existence of two and only two sexes) to everyday life and creating an economic goldrush benefiting all Americans.
UPDATE 3/29/25: From the same artist who gave us Washington Crossing The Delaware, Emanuel Leutze’s epic mural in the U.S. Capitol, Westward the Course of Empire Takes Its Way, draws its title and thematic inspiration from a poem by British philosopher George Berkeley:
There shall be sung another golden age
Not such as Europe breeds in her decay;
Such as she bred when fresh and young
When heavenly flame did animate her clay…”
Painted during the Civil War, our lowest moment, it sings out America’s timeless place in human history, hope and determination forging on against the inevitable obstacles and setbacks. Trump’s providential return, a battle now actively waged on countless vital fronts, promises to be a “another golden age” on the American timeline. Right in line with the spirit and purpose of this painting, he has recently issued EO’s eliminating DEI and self-hating “anti-American ideology” from the Smithsonian while ordering the return of all those historical monuments taken down across the country during the nightmarish Biden years. America is on her way back and, God willing, we prove capable of taking full advantage of this second (third? fourth? fifth?) chance. The best is yet to come.
Westward the course of empire takes its way;
The first four acts already past,
A fifth shall close the drama with the day;
Time’s noblest offspring is the last.
UPDATE 3/19/25: A re-post below from last fall of a tribute to martyred Russian champion of freedom Alexei Navalny and augmented here with a short review of his newly released memoir PATRIOT, including his widow’s moving tribute:
“This book is a testament not only to Alexei’s life, but to his unwavering commitment to the fight against dictatorship—a fight he gave everything for, including his life. Through its pages, readers will come to know the man I loved deeply—a man of profound integrity and unyielding courage. Sharing his story will not only honor his memory but also inspire others to stand up for what is right and to never lose sight of the values that truly matter.”—Yulia Navalnaya
UPDATE 11/17/24: Principled integrity, bravery, heroism, personal sacrifice, the American Spirit is universal and worthy of note wherever it manifests itself. Ergo, respectful acknowledgment here of martyred Russian dissident Alexi Navalny.
UPDATE 3/10/25: Life still can have meaning, despite EVERYTHING.
Not by chance the first book on Dennis Prager’s Book Club series hosted by Michael Knowles is Viktor Frankl’s “Man’s Search For Meaning, a book to which he attributes more personal importance than any except the Bible.
It is the testimony of a man who survived the Holocaust, losing at that time EVERYTHING except his actual life, surrounded on all sides by indescribable suffering yet somehow coming out of it with profound revelations of what allows a human to survive and flourish despite the worst imaginable circumstances. Now quadriplegic after an accidental fall at home, Prager is undoubtedly deep in thought, using the experience to full advantage and, dare we hope for him, with renewed hope and spirit in still finding meaning in an active life suddenly altered.
UPDATE 3/3/25: More sensational winning as Trump blazes like a meteor crashing through the Capitol Dome, stunning all Democrats present into robotic silence in his address to Congress.
His winning policies are one thing. The reaction of his increasingly irrelevant enemies is another:
“This is my fifth such speech to Congress, and, once again, I look at the Democrats in front of me, and I realize there is absolutely nothing I can say to make them happy or to make them stand or smile or applaud. Nothing I can do. I could find a cure to the most devastating disease, a disease that would wipe out entire nations, or announce the answers to greatest economy in history or the stoppage of crime to the lowest levels ever recorded, and these people sitting right here will not clap, will not stand, and certainly will not cheer for these astronomical achievements. They won’t do it no matter what. Five, five times I’ve been up here. It’s very sad. And it just shouldn’t be this way.”
An American success story unlike any other.
UPDATE 3/5/25: Majority ownership of Panama Canal ports is about to be transferred from Chinese to American hands. Another promise kept.
UPDATE 3/3/25: More sensational winning as Trump blazes like a meteor crashing through the Capitol Dome, stunning all Democrats present into robotic silence in his address to Congress.

An American success story unlike any other.
UPDATE 3/5/25: Majority ownership of Panama Canal ports is about to be transferred from Chinese to American hands. Another promise kept.
UPDATE 3/1/25: Jeff Bezos’ newly declared mission for his Washington Post is, for its Leftist readers, a betrayal, a terrible tragedy. And what is that tragic, misguided mission? Supporting and defending the “two pillars” that are “right for America,” “personal liberties and free markets.” Personal liberties? Free markets? For a political philosophy and major political party now entirely devoted to centralized control, micro-managing, curbing freedoms of all kinds, censorship, this DOES pose a problem. Ask John Kerry.
Yeah, there are some good things about free markets and personal liberties.
UPDATE 2/23/25: Everyone is drunk with TOO MUCH WINNING! But somehow we are surviving the overdose with only symptoms of renewed optimism.
Hating Trump=Hating American Normals Yes, they hate us, they really hate us. But, it’s “I don’t care, Margaret,” then moving right along.
Young Black men, in possession of their souls and headed for a bright future.
UPDATE 2/22/25: Formidable team. And, to make matters worse for the Left, masters of show biz. And we know there’s no biz like show biz.
UPDATE 2/24/25: One can hardly keep up with what Trump is doing on behalf of those who voted for him AND, unbeknownst to them, for the Barack/Sleepy Joe/Kamala crowd still refusing to discard their failed, nonsensical, suicidal Leftism.
UPDATE 2/12/25: The incomparably brave Dutch patriot Geert Wilders has become the logical spokesperson for a desperately needed MEGA (Make Europe Great Again) movement: “We fight for our values, family and country. We refuse to bend our knee to the extremist agenda of the woke left. We refuse to surrender to the guilt tripping of the multiculturalists!”
And continuing to surpass himself, JD Vance’s Munich address this week calling a sleeping Europe to arms provides one more beautiful gleam of light suddenly piercing the darkness of decades.
UPDATE 2/14/25: RFKJ, Tulsi, Kash, CONFIRMED!! and ready to rumble. Be on full alert for exploding heads in DC and wherever Woke still festers. Naturally, the Left has resorted to good old lawfare to throw up obstructions which, to their everlasting dismay, will now be met with full offense force while the MAGA coalition goes about its business of unflappably restoring sanity to our way of life.
UPDATE 2/8/25: Some of us are old enough to recall the inauguration of the Kennedy Center in tribute to JFK & Jackie’s prominent celebration of the most talented figures of their times.
Honoring a roomful of Nobel Prize winners in 1962, this photo reflects the cultural priorities of a more civilized America: “I think this is the most extraordinary collection of talent, of human knowledge, that has ever been gathered together at the White House, with the possible exception of when Thomas Jefferson dined alone.” JFK, 4/29/62
Then nearly two decades later came the Kennedy Center Honors, initially a thrilling event honoring the best of the best in the performing arts, our American version of a knighthood. Note the first honorees in 1978 below. For those of us fully aware of who these people are and what they achieved, the head whirls, the heart leaps and, admittedly, tears of gratitude, admiration and nostalgia flow.
From left to right: Richard Rodgers, Fred Astaire, Marian Anderson, George Balanchine, Arthur Rubinstein.
Things have clearly devolved when this same American institution is pushing transgenderism and drag shows for kids as mainstream culture. This and other signs of our culture’s discouraging decline are everywhere. Note the most nominated motion picture for this year’s Oscars.
In response, Trump’s declaration below is one more key aspect of Making America Great Again. This mission must include our arts, drawing a clear line between what is healthy, aesthetic expression and what is undeniably hateful, soul-rotting garbage, politicized poison designed to degrade life and destroy Western Civ from within. Any society serious about surviving must acknowledge the difference between what is appropriate in public and what belongs in private. Those usual suspects making panicked accusations of totalitarian censorship seem to forget that the vast, free internet provides nearly anything they might want for themselves or their unfortunate children, however debased, BUT in their own space and time.
For all who value freedom and healthy life, Trump’s pointed gesture honoring real talent and meritorious artistic expression is cause for celebration. MAA(American Arts)GA!! Kudos to “amazing” Chairman Donald!
This wonderful mission, restoring artistic greatness to America, runs parallel to the establishment of a new National Park of American Heroes. May we suggest that, among the first occupants of this park, belongs Donald Trump himself.
UPDATE 2/1/25: Lo and behold in a day, both Canada and Mexico have suddenly taken the first real steps within memory to secure their borders from their side. IN A DAY. And just as suddenly and surely by coincidence, tariffs newly imposed on both our neighbors have been paused for a month.
It must be a Trump failure if we are to believe the online hysterics: See! See! Major U-turn! Orange Man forced to make concessions! He’s all bluster and floundering aimlessly around driving up the cost of beer and avocados…
Sorry, Wokies. You’re the ones on the wrong side of history.
Aren’t you sorry now you didn’t vote for Kamala?! OMG!!! No Corona! Out of guacamole for the Super Bowl party!!
…and then again, you don’t suppose Donald simply did a deal, do you? Like maybe: “Hey, Sheinbaum & Trudeau-do your bit to stop the flow of illegals and drugs into our territory or you get nailed with 25% on the barrelhead.” Such a shock coming from the guy who wrote “The Art Of The Deal.”
UPDATE 1/31/25: Barely a week has passed, and the unimaginable is suddenly becoming imaginable, NOT for the sake of grandiosity but in service to the possibilities of greatness, ours, his, all Americans and, by our example, any other nation striving for the best of what life can offer.
Now on the way to bringing Obama’s permanent civil war to an end, he’s already on his way to earning a spot alongside George, Tom, Abe & Teddy, God grant him and us the time and strength to follow through on this second chance handed us.
UPDATE 1/30/25: Humanity is imperfect and flawed yet, at its best, wants to be good and live life in service to that. Trump’s appeal to every imaginable demographic, young men in particular, provides real hope for a reclaimed, great America.
UPDATE 1/28/25: For those just arriving at the party, FAFO is “F–k Around, Find Out.” No mystery why this guy has such a massive appeal among American Normals guided 24/7/365 by COMMON SENSE.
“I don’t really care, Margaret.” Right up there with “Martha, do you hear yourself?!” Send this man out every week to provide basic COMMON SENSE and full exposure of a stubbornly stupid, corrupt MSM.
COMMON SENSE, now the two most spoken words on the conservative internet and the bulwark of our American reclamation.
UPDATE 1/28/25: There is no such thing as too much winning if America can actually support itself via tariffs instead of income taxation. We’re suddenly living in a time of big dreams and an incipient golden American age of growth and progress. Time will tell if this, like MAGAWorld’s new Manifest Destiny plans, can actually come to pass.
UPDATE 1/28/25: Smacking the Colombian President’s sorry ass while simultaneously dispatching a planeload of illegals, DJT (coincidentally author of a tome entitled “The Art Of The Deal”) has demonstrated what the rational use of power can accomplish in a matter of hours.
Good sense is not limited to those walking on two legs.
UPDATE 1/24/25: The good news just gets better by the day as two simple words repeatedly are uttered by pundits, loud and clear, all over the Web as they take concrete form in the Executive Orders Trump has signed. Those two words are COMMON SENSE, another way of describing a connection to reality, things as they objectively are, not as we imagine/hope/pretend they are. What we are suddenly experiencing with Trump’s return is virtually all political issues imaginable being tackled using COMMON SENSE, not ideology or dogma. For the moment, let’s call it Making America Think & Work Properly Again.
Among the best news: an official rooting out of DEI, the New Racism tyrannizing everyone from mega-corporations pressured to hire PC tokens rather than the most competent people to the lone individual hounded out of her job for refusing to knuckle under to her Maoist Ivy League tormentors. Amazing that the original Civil Rights Act of 1964 legally forbids such blatant discrimination, yet both the mighty and meek have felt compelled to roll over for Wokedom’s illegal dictates for 16 years in obeisance to Obama/BrandonWorld’s stooges in the MSM and academe.
Something has clearly changed to the entire world’s advantage. An article from the NOT-conservative site Politico, authored by its founding editor John F. Harris, is a revelation of just how dramatically a cleansing wind is now blowing through the most unexpected places to rid us of BrandonWorld. Entitled Time To Admit It: Trump Is A Great President, the article points out the powerfully uniting effect American greatest leaders have had when tuned into real people and their real concerns. The alternative is what tens of millions of the commonsensical have had to live through since 2008, being browbeaten and even legally forced to accept absurdities and lies. We shall never all be in agreement, but the world can truly progress for the clear-headed and reality-based so long as the delusional souls religiously devoted to Woke remain a dissenting, dithering minority out of power. A window of opportunity has been opened for rational folk both here and abroad where America stubbornly remains the best hope for mankind. Let it be that there will always be a truly free America to which beset humanity can always turn as the last best hope.
UPDATE 1/19/25: “Frankly,” LOUDLY shouted both an electoral and popular majority of Americans on November 5, “we’re tired of being tyrannized and gaslighted by those forcing us to believe that The Woke and The Weird are normal. They’re not. Feel free to go Woke & Weird on your own time and in your own space. Leave the rest of us Normals alone to live freely and independently of your lies and absurdities.” MANA!!! (Make American Normal Again!!)
Note #45. As of January 20, America and this hat has updated itself to #47.
UPDATE 1/22/25: Trump has certainly not waited idly for January 20 to make his plan and finish the mission he first set out to do nearly a decade ago. His Inaugural Address is like rain after the drought allowing American lives to grow and flower again.
“It’s all about COMMON SENSE.”
His address this week to the globalists, repeating many or most of the most important points of his Inaugural Address, must have come as a shock to the Davos crowd, now suddenly as obsolete and useless as a stripped-down Edsel on blocks in Joe Biden’s back yard.
The future bodes more than well, but it is too late for millions of kids mentally, emotionally, even physically deformed permanently by the Covid and Trans madness. And what of the lives upended by the Stalinist J6 jailers? Or ruined by the tyranny of DEI policies? This must never happen again.
UPDATE 1/23/25: A third term for Trump? What?!!! But we can dream, can’t we?
INAUGURATION DAY CELEBRATION, 1/20/25: Franklin Graham opened today’s Inaugural proceedings with “…there are times I’m sure you thought it was pretty dark, but look what God has done” complemented by President Trump’s profound statement of gratitude and purpose: “I was saved by God to make America great again.” We have American leadership again, and being American has never felt more precious.
To the surprise of no one who knows me and my musical inclinations, my response to this special day of thanksgiving is a classic Hollywood moment displaying how a pair of dancers could lift the spirits of a nation weighted down by economic hardship in the 1930s, two vibrant, optimistic American kids whom anyone could recognize as “one of us.”
Perfection then for the worried masses of the Depression, perfection today for Americans craving a return to the Normal and Commonsensical, the “Divinely Usual” as someone beautifully described Fred & Ginger.
Echoing Graham and Trump: “Will you remember the famous men/Who had to fall to rise again? So pick yourself up, dust yourself off and start all over again!”
A famous man who fell and rose again? Starting all over again? Yep!
“I will simply put America first.” “I was saved by God to make America great again.”
UPDATE 1/8/25: COMING TO A 51st (52nd? 53rd?) STATE NEAR YOU!! TRUMPLAND TOWERS!!
Manifest destiny, 2025 is apparently manifesting itself. Not so crazy after all.
A fun-filled MAGA shopping spree!
They all laughed at Seward’s Folly, mocking our acquisition of Alaska back in the 1860s. Greenland? Taking back the Panama Canal? Trump’s “Folly?” Who’ll have the last laugh?
UPDATE 1/8/25: In reaction to the impending Trump restoration, the lies are suddenly piling up like reeking, stacked corpses amidst dialed-up hysteria. One still requires the cast-iron stomach refusing to ingest more of what has been fed us for years, but it’s just the high price of very good news, heralding an end to being force-fed the indigestible for years.
Somehow, despite this tidal wave of malicious mendacity, a respectable majority of the electorate has sensibly restored America to herself.
1/8/25: More happy news from Argentina. News flash! Capitalism and freedom works!
1/7/25: John Fetterman has proven to be that rarest of animals, a reasonable Democrat, a stroke victim thinking more clearly than virtually any other member of his Party.
UPDATE 1/8/25: Hopes run high because all sensible people can relate. Two simple words have emerged as our most precious, a RE-discovered natural resource: COMMON SENSE, a treasure totally lost on the strict ideologists. One writer suggests Trump is “the most libertarian President ever,” live and let live, whatever works to people’s benefit.
Just because. Grandpa DJT. It matters. Family for him is sincerely not just one big political prop as it has been for certain “others.”
UPDATE 1/3/25: As of January 20, we eagerly welcome the New Normal, that Normal being actual news of world events and genuine American progress with just a smattering of the absurdity and bald lies plaguing us over the last four years (five if one includes the whole Covid prequel to BrandonWorld).
And that’s what it’s all about! (h/t to DG).
UPDATE 1/4/25: Let the hard work begin, coupled with a strong, clear-headed defense against the suicidal forces from within.
UPDATE 1/4/25: Hopes soar at the prospect of our country’s collective comeback. Among the admirable presences on board is CA ex-Congressman Devin Nunes, joining the capable crew now embarking on MAGA mission 2.0.
Nunes’ return to the political stage is particularly welcome, having been one of those most actively confronting Hillary’s so-called “anti-fascist resistance” during Trump 1.0. One more very good man is back.
O happy day! Buh Bye!!!
