Secret Service Frog Marches Former FBI Head Comey to Headquarters Over Alleged Threat to Trump

You may find it hard to believe, but it appears that the federal government is taking potential threats against conservatives seriously. We told you yesterday about how former FBI director James Comey, allegedly a Republican, but deeply involved in the phony “Russiagate” accusations against President Donald Trump, is in hot water over a social media post. 

On May 15, Comey posted a photograph on Instagram. It showed a beach with a number of sea shells arranged to spell out the numberals “8647.” Yes, it sounds like paranoid numerology, but it’s not. The numbers are widely known to mean specific things:

-”86” means “to get rid of.” It’s used in restaurant kitchens to refer to ingredients that ran out. In street parlance, to “86” someone is to get rid of them, sometimes by killing.

-”47” refers to the fact that Donald Trump is the 47th president. 

Given the full-court press by the left to stymie and frustrate every action taken by Trump, it’s not a stretch to read that post by Comey as endorsing the assassination of Trump. No, it’s not “ridiculous” to think that, and Comey surely knows that, although he’s almost certainly lying when he says he “didn’t mean that.” He took the post down, but it’s far too late. You can see a screen capture of the original here.

Last year in 2024, Trump survived two assassination attempts. For those who have forgotten (yes, people really have), a bullet grazed his ear and came within an inch of penetrating his brain. There is clearly an appetite to kill the man, and there are clearly insane people just waiting to be baited by covert suggestions that someone should rid us of this turbulent president. 

Given how nakedly the federal government has encouraged lawlessness and violence for years under Joe Biden, it’s almost a shock to see the feds taking this seriously. But boy, are they ever. On May 16, the Secret Service is physically escorting Comey, former head of the FBI, to their headquarters for questioning. And it’s not only Comey, but leftist “influencers” who appear equally giddy at the thought of a dead President Trump. 

Take Ed Krassenstein, one of two very diminutive identical twins, who makes his living as a hard left “social media personality.” Ed posted an image of pool balls spelling “8647” with the message “It’s time!”

He even mocked those who predicted the Secret Service would get involved – but those tweets are now deleted.

*Cue sad trombone.* Here is Krassenstein just a few hours later. 

As he himself revealed, the open borders advocate lives in a gated community. Because of course he does.

And here’s a sample of what X users had to say about that. 

Of course, there’s a good portion that thinks it’s really those bad old Republicans who are doing wrong. Threats are like, justified, you know, when your president is like, a fascist? 

Actually, there aren’t that many in support after all. Most are more like this. 

Left-wing extremism

Reality Has Finally Sunk In for the Left – and They’re Crazier Than Ever

The honeymoon is over. After the 2024 election of Donald Trump, a lot of conservatives felt hope for the first time in years. You could just tell that people were more optimistic out on the streets. Though they’d never admit it, even liberals were acting less lunatic for a time. 

Forget it now. The reality of a Republic White House and Congress has fully sunk in for the left, and they’ve descended right back into full madness. All of our peculiar American neuroses are on full display. Race relations is one of the biggest. After 17-year-old black Karmelo Anthony stabbed 17-year-old white Austin Metcalf to death the killer’s family launched a fundraiser and excoriated the dead kid and his father with accusations of “racism.” That it was even socially possible to be an admitted killer and launch a fundraiser that netted half-a-million dollars tells us everything we need to know about the character of our country. 

Now the left is losing its mind over the arrival of persecuted white farm families arriving as refugees in the United States. White people and blacks alike on the left are calling these people “racists” who aren’t really persecuted, even though white farmers are being killed by savage black Africans all the time. The country’s government just passed a law allowing it to steal land from white farmers to give it to black people on the grounds of “equity.” Yet “media elite” like Don Lemon, formerly of CNN, feels comfortable breezily mocking these refugees and saying they deserve what they get. 

The Associated Press is fairly chuckling, putting “genocide” in quotation marks as if it were self-evidently absurd to believe that white people could ever be the victims of ethnic cleansing. 

Same with our political elite. Former FBI Director James Comey, nominally a Republican, but also a “never Trumper” who got his hands dirty trying to soil Donald Trump, posted a picture on social media that he’s now pretending did not mean what it obviously meant. The picture, shown in the X post below, depicts sea shells on a beach. They are arranged to spell out the numbers “8647.” What does that mean? To “86” something means to get rid of it. Forty-seven refers to the fact that Trump is the 47th president. Yes, it sounds like “numerology” but it’s not; people actually use these numbers to mean “get rid of President Trump.” 

People noticed. Those people include Homeland Security Director Kristi Noem, who said, “Disgraced former FBI Director James Comey just called for the assassination of [President] Trump. DHS and Secret Service is investigating this threat and will respond appropriately.”

Let’s see how the X-using public reacted to Noem’s post. 

Naturally, leftist lunatic Ed Krassenstein is there to say it’s everyone else, not Comey and the left, who is “dangerous.”

Others are also pretending Comey’s tweet could not plausibly be read as a call to violence. You’d almost think they forgot that Trump survived two assassination attempts last year. 

Congress

Indian-born Congressman in a Wig Can’t Name Cities in His District

The “anything goes” and “you do you” attitude that’s prevailed for the last 15 or so years has brought us all sorts of public behavior that no one wanted. The Human Resources dictum to “bring your whole self to work” has given permission for staff to bring their marital and emotional problems to the office so what used to be private business is now everyone’s concern. 

Have you noticed how there are also no grooming standards anywhere anymore? If you’re in your late 40s or 50s, you remember a time not long ago when you were expected to comb your hair, tuck in your shirt, and-gasp!-even wear a clean uniform. That’s been replaced by hairy guts hanging out below food-stained T-shirts (men) and literal prostitute-wear (women). People’s faces are full of metal like nose rings and painful lip piercings, and even middle class women are covered with the kinds of tattoos formerly seen only on bikers, prisoners, and psychopaths. 

This strange behavior goes on in the elite classes, too. Consider Shri Thanedar, an immigrant from India who represents Michigan’s 13th district in the House of Representatives. There’s no “nice” way around this: the man looks like a creation from Jim Henson’s Muppet Studios. It’s obvious from his photographs over the years that he’s been heavily reliant on makeup and hairpieces. 

When you look at his Congressional portrait, you imagine that Thanedar walked into a Baltimore wig emporium and said, “I’ll take the Carol Brady in brunette.”

Then there’s the obviously drawn-on (tattooed?) eyebrows. Recently, they’ve taken on the in-vogue square shape, the kind that looks like they were drawn on with a Sharpie. 

Of course, we’re not supposed to comment on how people look, even when they choose their look specifically to get attention, as Thanedar appears to have done. So let’s examine his political actions. Thanedar has a severe case of Trump Derangement Syndrome, and recently put up a video announcing his articles of impeachment against President Trump. Take a look and a listen to this weird dude. 

His odd priorities are not a one-off. Recently a citizen reporter interviewed Thanedar and asked him to specifically name prominent cities in the Congressional district he represents. Thanedar couldn’t do it, begging off by saying “I’m not here to answer a quiz.” Take a look. 

X/Twitter users did not find Thanedar impressive. 

Plenty of people made reference to allegations that Thanedar was involved in mistreatment of animals. 

And yeah, they went for his look, too.

House GOP Lawmakers Introduce Bill to Codify Trump’s Ban on Transgender Servicemembers

House Republicans will introduce proposed legislation to make President Trump’s directive on transgender servicemembers permanent in line with his “Prioritizing Military Excellence and Readiness” executive order. 

“I am introducing the Readiness Over Wokeness Act, which codifies @POTUS’s January 27, 2025, Executive Order prohibiting military service for transgender individuals and solidifies into law the DoD directive from @SecDef,” tweeted Alabama GOP U.S. Rep. Barry Moore.

The Trump administration recently scored a crucial victory after the Supreme Court ruled in its favor, paving the way for the removal of servicemembers suffering from gender dysphoria. 

Shortly after, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth announced a voluntary disclosure program for both active duty and reserve servicemembers pending separation.

Now, GOP lawmakers in the lower chamber are working on a draft proposal to permanently ban transgender individuals from joining the military.

Dubbed the Readiness Over Wokeness Act, the bill would not only enhance the military’s readiness and lethality but also save taxpayers’ money.

“A person may not serve as a member of the armed forces if the person has a current diagnosis or history of, or exhibits symptoms consistent with, gender dysphoria; or has a history of gender affirming care, including cross-sex hormone therapy or sex reassignment or genital reconstruction surgery as treatment for gender dysphoria or in pursuit of a sex transition,” the proposed legislation states.

It will also authorize the Secretary of Defense to administratively discharge current servicemembers who were barred from serving due to gender dysphoria.

Discharged servicemembers will also not be required to complete their service or reimburse the government for any benefits obtained after joining the military, despite being unable to perform their obligations.

Speaking to Fox News Digital, Rep. Moore explained how individuals with gender dysphoria exploited the military to receive sex change treatment and gender-affirming care, and leave before they could deploy.

“What we had with this trans movement was we had a bunch of people coming in, signing a six-year contract, and then starting the surgeries and starting the hormone replacements …, and then by the time they could really actually serve, they were ready to get out,” said Rep. Moore. “I think in many ways the taxpayers get a much bigger bang for their buck, No. 1. And No. 2, I think that if I’m looking at joining, these guys are really focused on fighting, and if I’m in the foxhole with these guys, these are people I’ve trained with, they’re capable.”

Before his confirmation as Secretary of Defense, Hegseth had described how the military alienated the core fighting demographics in favor of transgender individuals. “…and in trying to cater to that, they lost the boys in Tennessee and Kentucky and Oklahoma. The traditional dudes who did it because they wanted, they loved their country, or they wanted the adventure, or they wanted to try tough things….”

According to the California-based think tank Palm Center, approximately 14,707 servicemembers—of whom 8,980 are active duty and 5,727 are in the reserves—identify as transgender, including 1,850 who identify as men despite having joined as women.

American Liberals Mock White South African Refugees

“Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free” – except if you’re white and from South Africa.

That’s the message from a large number of white Americans, liberal white Americans. You know, the only demographic in human history that actually hates itself and pushes its own kind in front of hostile people from other racial demographics in order to appear to be a good person. 

The Trump administration is now accepting white refugee families from South Africa. Yes, you read that right. “White refugee families.” It is in fact possible for white people to be from Africa, and also to be refugees. Since the Civil Rights era in the 60s, most white Americans have come to the strange conclusion that white people, and only white people, can never be victims of anything even when they truly are victims. 

Why do white families need to get out of South Africa? Because, since the end of racial apartheid, black political hatred for white people has gone out of control. The SA government recently passed a law allowing the state to seize land from white farmers to give to black farmers, and with no compensation. This is in the interest of social justice, of course. 

White people are murdered by blacks at an extraordinary rate, and that kind of murder is now socially and politically acceptable in South Africa. Julius Malema, leader of the National Assembly of South Africa, has led stadiums full of crowds in musical chants about killing white farmers. “Kill the Boer,” they chant, using the historic name for the white Dutch settlers who came to the continent hundreds of years ago. 

What do American Democrats do when they see these families coming to the United States? They make fun of them, they claim they “don’t look like refugees.” It’s simply a fact: American liberals and Democrats really do hate white people, they really do hate them in a racist way, and they don’t even feel any pressure to hide that fact. The Episcopal Church, for example, just decided to stop all help in refugee resettlement if that means they would have to help white South African people. 

CNN’s token conservative Scott Jennings does yeoman’s work pushing back on panels stacked with Democrats (mainly racist black Americans). Check out this exchange he had with Ashley Allison, who worked for the Biden campaign in 2020. Ashley says the whites can “go back to Germany,” apparently unclear on the fact that they’re not from Germany, but from South Africa. And their ancestors were from Holland, not Deutschland. “The people who are native to that land deserve their land back,” she said. Reminder: the white people living in South Africa are native to South Africa. 

Let’s see what Twitter/X users had to say. It’s not going well for Ashley. 

But it’s not just “incompetence” or ignorance. It’s moral malice against white people.

Why Do European Cops Protect Vandals and Activists Who Disrupt Traffic?

Donald Trump may have been elected president last fall in a rebuke to left wing lunacy, but that lunacy is nowhere near gone. Right now the U.S. is in a battle between reality and fantasy, normal and abnormal. As Trump issues executive orders to get men out of women’s sports, to deport radical non-citizen activists stirring up trouble on college campuses and more, the left is doing their “resistance” even harder. 

For all the bellyaching accusations that Republicans are “lawless,” it’s the left that believes it can do anything it likes without consequence. For example, Idaho recently passed a law banning cities from flying any flags that were not official city flags, that is, government flags. The purpose behind the law was to stop the leftist takeover of civic symbols; they’ve been trying to raise “trans” and “lgbtq” flags in public places faster than they file suit to force cities to take down Christmas nativity scenes. 

But liberal Boise doesn’t like the law, so it’s using leftist’s favorite tactic, word play, to get around it. Boise decided to make the “lgbtq” flag an official “city flag.” See? They’re following the law. It’s an adult version of the “I’m not touching you” game from the back seat of the family car. 

Since transgender ideology exploded in about 2015, we’ve all been living in Opposite Land. Men are women, ugly people are beautiful, spoken words are “violence,” but actual violence is not violence. Have you noticed how so many things in the world work in the exact opposite direction that they’re supposed to? 

You notice it with police across the West. In England the cops are arresting native white British citizens for things like silently praying across the street from an abortion clinic. We all watched police standby in major American cities and do nothing while Black Lives Matter rioters burned buildings and assaulted people. 

You see this odd police behavior during leftist roadway tantrums, too. We’ve seen environmental activists lay down on highways, or glue their hands to roads, to stop traffic and, they say “stop oil.” Usually there are few to no cops to be found. But funny thing, as soon as fed up motorists take matters into their own hands the coppers show up to shoo them away and protect the activists from being moved out of the road. 

You can see it in this video from Berlin, Germany. 

A lot of social media onlookers are wondering why the cops weren’t removing the protestors, and why they seemed to be more concerned with stopping ordinary people from removing the human roadblocks. 

Hell, the cops help them get out of self-imposed jams!

If this behavior by European police continues, they may find citizen resistance against police spreading.

Al Sharpton Opposes Trump’s Asylum for White South Africans, Calls for “Due Process” While Defending Illegals

Race-baiting leftist cleric Al Sharpton has opposed Trump’s offer to welcome racially persecuted White South African farmers into the United States. South Africa recently signed the Expropriation Act 13 of 2024, allowing the seizure and redistribution of White-owned land, in some cases, without compensation.

White South Africans are also frequently subjected to various racially targeted violent attacks solely due to their race. In 2022, a South African Equality Court ruled that “Kill the Boer – Kill the Farmer” was not hate speech, highlighting the systemic racism subjected to White South Africans.

“What’s happening in South Africa fits the textbook definition of why the refugee program was created. This is persecution based on a protected characteristic — in this case, race. This is race-based persecution,” said White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller.

However, Sharpton opposed the program that aims to help real victims of racial persecution by demanding due process, while still defending people who entered the country illegally without it.

“President Trump is saying to white Afrikaners of South Africa, ‘I’ll give you refugee status.’ So we’re bringing in white Afrikaners, who we don’t if they’re criminals, we don’t know whether the went through the legal process in South Africa, — but people right here in New York, we’re gonna assume they are all criminals, we’re gonna bring them out, and if the mayor wants to say ‘Wait a minute, let’s have due process,’  [Trump] is going to say ‘Lock him up.’”

The Trump administration is not “assuming” that the illegal immigrants to be deported have criminal backgrounds. Most are from prisons where they are serving sentences for various crimes including rape, murder, and burglary, in addition to being in the country illegally. Every illegal the left has used to try to appear sympathetic on this issue, such as the infamous “Maryland Dad,” has turned out to be a gang member or criminal.

Most Democratic mayors have denied ICE access to prisons to detain these convicted criminals and remove them from the country. For instance, the left criticized Democratic New York City Mayor Eric Adams for allowing ICE into the Rikers Island jail complex, proving that they did not consider having a criminal background as a disqualifying factor for staying in the United States.

Additionally, White South African farmers cannot leave their home country if they have pending arrests or criminal cases, especially in the heightened atmosphere of racial profiling. Similarly, they can apply for asylum while still in South Africa and be vetted without breaking a single law.

“The U.S. Embassy in Pretoria has been conducting interviews and processing pursuant to President Trump’s Executive Order on Addressing Egregious Actions of the Republic of South Africa,” the State Department said. “The Department of State is prioritizing consideration for U.S. refugee resettlement of Afrikaners in South Africa who are victims of unjust racial discrimination.” 

During his first term, Trump had a similar program dubbed “Remain in Mexico” or formally Migrant Protection Protocols (MPP) that allowed immigrants to apply for asylum without crossing the southern border. However, the Biden administration, which Sharpton strongly supported, reversed the program and allowed everybody into the country without due process.

“It is as blatantly of a double standard that one can get,” Sharpton inadvertently and accurately described himself and the left.

“What is the real policy gonna be? … Are we gonna have due process, or are we just gonna let everybody go, and can the president just give other people, blanket, ‘You’re refugees’? So what’s the difference, Mr. President, between a refugee and a guy who may be a criminal and may not be a criminal?”

Similarly, White South Africans will enter the country through official ports of entry and produce official documents for vetting. Trump also offered to “fast-track” their path to legal citizenship, not a blanket and indefinite illegal stay.

Are World Leaders Really Sniffing Cocaine in Cozy Retreat Cabins?

The pursuit of perfect reproduction of the real world has driven the fields of photography and cinematography since the inception of photography itself. When modern people look back on very early photographs from the 19th century, they usually remark on how “blurry” and impressionistic they are, more like a painting than what we know as a photograph. 

The earliest photographic processes like the daguerreotype were fussy and labor-intensive; if you wanted a good image you needed a lot of skill and patience. Light-sensitive emulsions in those days were very “slow,” meaning they needed to have a lot of light thrown on them to form an image. Early photographic portrait studios had devices to hold the sitter’s head still for the long exposures, seconds to minutes, necessary to get a likeness that wasn’t blurry. 

Monochrome photography came first, of course, but from the start enthusiasts were looking for a way to reproduce natural color photographs. This took a long time. Some of the early processes like autochrome used dyed granules of potato starch mixed into the light-sensitive emulsion along with silver halide. In this way, full-color photographs could be achieved, even if they weren’t as detailed as what we’re used to today. 

In 2025, we’ve come full circle while at the same time we’ve jumped right out of the frame. Phones with built-in cameras are ubiquitous, and even though many of the videos we see with them are as grainy as old chemical photographs, we still see the videos as being “realistic.” But when there’s that much room to maneuver, it’s easy to see how AI could upset the apple cart even further. 

Take the latest “thing” going around on social media. There’s a video depicting world leaders—French President Emmaneul Macron, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, and Brit Prime Minister Keir Starmer—meeting around a table. Users are claiming they can see the men trying to hide a bag of cocaine and associated implements when they realize they’re being filmed. 

This account shows the original video:

Sure, it does look like Macron and Merz are scurrying to hide something beneath their hands, but would we read those actions into this video if we weren’t first prompted with the idea that it was drug-hiding behavior? And if that is what’s shown, can we know that it happened in the real world, or might it be an AI edit of reality? 

X/Twitter users had fun using AI to add obviously false elements, like sticking in an image of comedian Dave Chappelle performing as one his most famous sketch characters, a cocaine addict. Look sharp-Hunter Biden is in there too!

This one purports to show Ukraine’s Volodymyr Zelenskyy sniffing his nose suspiciously, but who can say if it’s even real. 

If you polled the bulk of people responding to the post, they’d say it’s all a misunderstanding. Lots of users pointed out that what others were claiming was a spoon for measuring cocaine was really just a swizzle stick for a cocktail next to a tissue.

Trump Roasts Mayor Pete and Hubby for Riding a Bicycle Built for Two

There’s something about Pete Buttigieg. You remember him. He’s the former Secretary of Transportation who waited weeks to show up in a small Ohio town poisoned by a toxic train derailment in 2023. And when he did show up, locals and the Internet made fun of his choice to wear upscale leather dress shoes rather than boots suited to walking around a clean-up site. 

Wounded, Buttigieg said Republicans were just hypocrites anyway who don’t know the names of discount clothing stores that real Americans shop at. “You think Tucker Carlson knows the difference between a T.J. Maxx and a Kohl’s,” he sniped during media interviews about the backlash at the time. 

But does Pete really know anything about T.J. Maxx clothing? After all, Vogue lovingly profiled him in 2019 when he was still just the mayor of South Bend, Indiana. Check out how the fashion magazine described him:

“In person, Buttigieg’s style is amiable and controlled. He speaks, like a newscaster, in lucid paragraphs, with a solid baritone and boxed-in decorum. He seems to live in white shirts and pressed slacks—it’s his dress even now, around the house—and wears his hair in the same tame coif as Mike Pence, who was elected Indiana’s governor the year he was sworn in as mayor.”

What is that “something” about Mayor Pete? It’s somewhere in the neighborhood of “inauthentic,” or “ersatz,” or “counterfeit.” You can’t escape the impression that you’re watching someone perform being normal. There’s a robotic quality to his manner, his look, and the way he carries himself. It’s like the plot of some 1950s b-grade sci-fi movie where humanoid aliens land on earth and try to blend in by saying awkward things like, “I am a normal Earth man, I assure you.”

And then there’s Chasten, his husband. The two of them look like the gay version of a Mormon-wear catalog, and they seem to be aware of it, and even revel in it. The impression from pictures of them together is that they’re trying to show a version of the buttoned-up 1950s but with gay marriage and adopted twins. 

President Donald Trump has picked up on that je-ne-sais-quoi about Pete, and remarked on it during a White House event. Trump contrasted the members of the Republican Party with the Democrats, and gave some examples (including ratchet House Rep. Jasmine Crockett) of the “talent” on the blue side of the aisle. 

In his trademark drily humorous tone, Trump noted that Buttigieg rides around on a bicycle built for two along with hubby Chasten, which Trump called “a nice, loving relationship.” But you can hear the silent giggle. 

Here’s what X posters had to say. 

It’s the humor that Democrats hate. Trump is genuinely funny, and they can’t stand it.

New Times Square Statue Is Turning Heads for All the Wrong Reasons

Have you ever wanted to take a vacation to Europe and tour some of the houses and museums that contain famous art that you’ve only seen in pictures? It’s a common desire, and if you’ve ever seen one of these with your own eyes, you know that it’s an experience you can’t duplicate with photos or virtual tours. 

For example, did you know that Vincent Van Gogh’s paintings have such thick, textured paint that the actual piece is three-dimensional? If you stand in front of the actual painting Starry Night, you can see the deep texture of the paint and brush strokes popping off the canvas. You’d never know this, and never really experience the painting, if you only knew it from online images. 

Maybe you’d like to see Michelangelo’s masterpiece statue depicting David. It’s in a gallery in Florence, a city you might want to see on its own for the glorious architecture, even if it didn’t have David and other Michelangelo masterpieces. But someone, or someones, seems to believe that world travelers visiting large cities should also have to see what they can’t escape at home, at least in the U.S. 

Resentful-looking, looming black women on cell phones. Take a look at this “artistic” statue in the plaza just outside the gallery where David is featured. 

Really take a good look at marvel at the realism. The artist captured the sullen, pissed-off look on the subject’s face, the same look we all see with people like this every day at grocery stores and malls. 

It’s not just Florence. Huge statues of (mostly overweight) black women dressed in an American style are popping up in cities throughout the west. Here’s one that was put up in the Netherlands in 2023. 

But wait, there are more:

One of those in the post above just got put up in Times Square in New York City.

Let’s see what the Internet Public has to say about it. Naturally, someone pointed out that not liking the statue is racist.

A white lady with problem glasses did the usual thing they do, lecturing the original poster on how privileged white men are, which makes the statue necessary. 

But most people called this what it is–deliberate uglification and aggression to put black Westerners on a literal pedestal.
