State of Thursday: THE TRUTH COMES OUT
This all took place 11 days prior to Pretti’s death
Greetings, Dear Reader,
Well well well … if it isn’t the truth.
I’ll be. Bad news for them, good news for us.
THE TRUTH COMES OUT
Everything I’m about to go through happened in just the last 24-48 hours.
Buckle up.
Let’s start by checking in on celeb world, shall we?
John Leguizamo doesn’t want you to watch any of his movies. I know what you’re thinking, and it’s one of two things. Who? or He’s still making movies?
Yes, Leguizamo says if you support ICE, stop watching his movies and unfollow him. It almost makes me want to follow him and find his movies just to unfollow and stop watching them. Leguizamo isn’t the only random bout of celeb world TDS dropping recently. Enter Molly Ringwald, who stopped being relevant around the time MC Hammer was popular.
Filming herself as she sits on her bed alone at home, Ringwald vows that ICE-supporting Republicans will be found and tried for “treason” once Democrats take back over.
“You are going to be seen as a collaborationist,” says Ringworm, looking like a washed up beat poet.
Meanwhile, Hollywood herald and raging douche Stephen Colbert made waves for saying that you can’t call ICE Nazis because that would be insulting to Nazis. Good one, Stephen, deporting illegals is just like gassing millions of Jews! I’m counting down the days to your final episode, bud, can’t come soon enough.
Not to be outdone, Jennifer Welch declared white Christians “a cancer.” She’s a mid actress who took a break from torturing her face with plastic surgery to become a leading liberal podcaster. She goes on CNN. They love her!
“These are the worst people in our country,” she said of the exact kind of people who founded the country.
Jerry Seinfeld, a universally beloved comic and apparently the only normal person left in Hollywood, is “no longer welcome in Illinois” because he won’t wear a keffiyeh and shout pro-Hamas slogans. Also because he’s Jewish.
You’ve villainized the only normal guy left in Hollywood. Also he’s universally beloved. Seinfeld is basically the only 90/10 issue in show business right now. Great work!
Next up, the politicians, how are they doing?
Zohran Mamdani has been in office all of 11 seconds and he’s declaring a city-wide fiscal emergency on par with “the housing crisis.” His solution is of course to nationalize the wealth of successful people. Who could have foreseen that?
In an attempt to outdo Virginia AG Jay Jones, who said Republicans should be forced to watch their children die, Ohio AG candidate Elliot Forhan is literally running on “I am going to kill Donald Trump.”
Like countless psychotic liberals before him, he made this announcement by turning his cellphone camera on, filming himself, and posting this message to social media. With his real face and everything.
Soros-backed Philly DA Larry Krasner promised to “hunt down” ICE agents once Trump is out of office. “The way they hunted down Nazis for decades,” he said, “we will find your identities!”
So the war on law enforcement continues. How goes it with the criminals in Larry’s purview? Well it seems like he loves nothing more than downgrading murder charges. The DA’s own data dashboard showed that for every year of his tenure, Krasner has “dismissed or withdrawn more violent cases … than the year before.”
Yikes, Krasner. Hard on crime fighters, soft on crime.
At this point we absolutely need to check in on Sen. Liz Warren.
My favorite piece of content from yesterday was the video of her mythologizing Alex Pretti while footage plays behind her showing him acting like a complete maniac toward law enforcement.
In video released Wednesday, Pretti is shown attacking a federal ICE vehicle. He spits on an officer who is attempting to leave the scene. Then he kicks the vehicle until the taillight shatters.
Officers disembark and tussle with Pretti. His concealed carry handgun is visible in the video as well.
This all took place 11 days prior to Pretti’s death. Coherent, normal onlookers unfazed by the left’s delusions immediately pointed out the obvious: If Pretti had been booked and jailed for committing a felony in broad daylight right then, he’d likely still be alive.
But no, we live in a world in which guys like Tim Walz refuse to dispatch local police to aid federal warrant service. Thankfully, Walz has not only given up his campaign for governor, but also vowed to never run for office again. Something must have spooked him, eh? Could it be a massive criminal fraud scheme to buy votes?
This is all just normal now. The abnormal is normal. Looking at your phone by yourself and saying the most insane things and then posting it and feeling self-righteous. Totally normal abnormality.
Pretti’s story also followed the normal path of the abnormal. Lionized, mythologized, martyrized, only for the truth to surface later. Yes, he was indeed mentally unwell. He was violent. Unpredictable. His own parents begged him not to act out.
Remember “hands up, don’t shoot”? We were led to believe Michael Brown was an upstanding citizen. Except he was actually a total brute who beat the hell out of a police officer. By the way, the left ruined that officer’s life too, even though he objectively made the streets safer by ridding them of Brown.
The list goes on. Jacob Blake. George Floyd. Jussie Smollett. All vile human beings who endured narrative collapse once the truth came out. Kyle Rittenhouse. The story they told about him was insane and also, surprising no one, false.
While this lefty implosion accelerated on all fronts, what were Republicans doing?
Trump pretended to fire Greg Bovino and then dispatched Tom Homan to Minneapolis instead. The FBI raided Fulton County election offices (presumably) looking for thousands of fake 2020 ballots in Georgia. They’ve got whistleblowers apparently. Sen. John Thune announced that the SAVE Act will federally mandate voter ID and proof of US Citizenship to vote in US elections. The Venn Diagram of no voter ID and states that Kamala Harris won in 2024 is a perfect circle.
Oh, and Elon Musk announced that he’s probably cured blindness.
He cited LeVar Burton’s depiction of Geordi La Forge in Star Trek: The Next Generation as his inspiration. It’s ironic given that Star Trek’s latest series, “Academy,” failed at literal launch for being way too woke and horribly written.
I guess the lesson here is that the liberal movement is dissolving in its own acidic soup of mental illness, unreality and delusion just like the Hollywood they worship. It’s all just storytelling, except their stories are filled with holes, tortured, and beggar belief. Like Warren’s depiction of Pretti as “incapable of causing harm” and a “light” of “steady calm,” it’s all just wispy, poorly produced delusion. A temporary blip, until they move on to the next delusion.
And while they busy themselves recording insanities by themselves in their bedrooms, excited for the likes they might get on TikTok, real people, real men, real leaders who operate in reality are taking steps forward.
The Tom Homans, Elon Musks and Donald Trumps of the world are undeterred by their abject hystericism.
Thank God for that.
That’s it for the free portion of today’s State of the Day.
