My X timeline is completely confusing.  Do we like Pam Bondi or not?

I don’t.   She’s a below mediocre lawyer.  She does enjoy grandstanding and being in the media. 
 
Her department (DoJ) is busting many low level cases.   But the big fish she can’t handle and honestly doesn’t want to.  She’s looking at life beyond Trump and wants to remain within the establishment, hence the slow walking and putting such little effort into seeking convictions of the big fish. 

Her latest of being unable to get grand jury convictions of the seditious six is evident of that.   Using a DC grand jury will get you nowhere.  She could have gotten legally creative to get the venue to another district, but she played it straight so it would lose. 

Adam Schiff is guilty of mortgage fraud.   He’s also been a huge leaker of classified information. 
Ilan Omar has committed immigration fraud and is now under investigation for money laundering among other crimes. 

They will never see the inside of a courtroom.  We truly do have a two tiered system. 

.

There are two main groups of economic leftists. Well three, but the third is just stupid people who don’t actually know what it is, just vote for it because they’re brainwashed.

The two types of “true believers” are:

1. Power elite, or wannabes, who profess it for the masses to gain/keep power but have no intention of ever actually living under the egalitarian distribution themselves. They are the ones who will eat steak while the rest of us eat bugs. They are the ruling communist parties in every communist utopian experiment. They are soulless psychopaths.

2. The would be receivers of other people’s wealth, be it because they are poor due to circumstances, but feel this entitles them to other people’s money, or lazy, untalented parasites who justify their sense of entitlement with their hate and envy of those who earn and produce. They are the useful idiots, their numbers grown by propaganda against “evil private corporations” and “the rich” and deliberate destruction if the economy by group 1 to drive the middle class downward.

Actually group 2 also includes well off middle or even lower upper class who hate anyone even better off than themselves.

Leftism is always based on hatred, envy or disingenuous elitism. And also what Anthony said.

Bring back the water cannons.  The crowds will disperse really quick in sub-zero weather.

And die it some awful color so it will mess up mommy's washing machine when he gets home.

Not to take away from what he did, but thank goodness it was the leg, and not the femoral artery therein either, nor the chest, head, or spinal cord. He probably wrapped bandages around it, swallowed some tylenol, and carried on. Much respect!

This account from a Venezuelan security guard loyal to Nicolás Maduro is absolutely chilling—and it explains a lot about why the tone across Latin America suddenly changed.
Security Guard: On the day of the operation, we didn't hear anything coming. We were on guard, but suddenly all our radar systems shut down without any explanation. The next thing we saw were drones, a lot of drones, flying over our positions. We didn't know how to react.
Interviewer: So what happened next? How was the main attack?
Security Guard: After those drones appeared, some helicopters arrived, but there were very few. I think barely eight helicopters. From those helicopters, soldiers came down, but a very small number. Maybe twenty men. But those men were technologically very advanced. They didn't look like anything we've fought against before.
Interviewer: And then the battle began?
Security Guard: Yes, but it was a massacre. We were hundreds, but we had no chance. They were shooting with such precision and speed... it seemed like each soldier was firing 300 rounds per minute. We couldn't do anything.
Interviewer: And your own weapons? Didn't they help?
Security Guard: No help at all. Because it wasn't just the weapons. At one point, they launched something—I don't know how to describe it... it was like a very intense sound wave. Suddenly I felt like my head was exploding from the inside. We all started bleeding from the nose. Some were vomiting blood. We fell to the ground, unable to move.
Interviewer: And your comrades? Did they manage to resist?
Security Guard: No, not at all. Those twenty men, without a single casualty, killed hundreds of us. We had no way to compete with their technology, with their weapons. I swear, I've never seen anything like it. We couldn't even stand up after that sonic weapon or whatever it was.
Interviewer: So do you think the rest of the region should think twice before confronting the Americans?
Security Guard: Without a doubt. I'm sending a warning to anyone who thinks they can fight the United States. They have no idea what they're capable of. After what I saw, I never want to be on the other side of that again. They're not to be messed with.
Interviewer: And now that Trump has said Mexico is on the list, do you think the situation will change in Latin America?
Security Guard: Definitely. Everyone is already talking about this. No one wants to go through what we went through. Now everyone thinks twice. What happened here is going to change a lot of things, not just in Venezuela but throughout the region.

Spread Unexpected Christmas Cheer

Consider this a Feel-Good Wednesday story in honor of Christmas Eve, and a testament to a private enterprise that honors and appreciates its customers.
H-E-B is a regional grocery chain headquartered in San Antonio, Texas. In 2025, H-E-B ranked the 5th-largest private company in the U.S. with annual revenues of $49.57 billion. Not too shabby for a concern that only covers parts of Texas and Mexico. This 120-year-old grocer has obviously tapped into their market and found success with their model, but this Christmas, they also tapped into the heart of service in a big way.
On Tuesday, at an H-E-B location in Burleson, TX, the computer system went completely down; some reports say for over two hours. My husband installs, configures, and troubleshoots these types of systems, and when they tank in this way, it's game over until the issue is resolved. There is no backup plan for an alternative way for customers to check out. Make of that what you will, but suffice to say the customer has two choices: wait for the system to come back online or abandon their purchases and leave. As a testament to the difference between people in the South and, say, the West, most of the people at that Burleson H-E-B waited patiently for the computers to come back up so they could check out with their groceries and gifts. I am the food shopper in our home, so after carefully choosing my items, the last thing I want is to have to start over again somewhere else, so I would have waited too.

But what happened next was not only a huge surprise but also changed what could have been wasted time, ruined schedules, and frayed emotions into one that sparked joy, gratitude, and appreciation.

Christmas came early for some Burleson H-E-B shoppers this week.

After a glitch shut down the store's computer system and brought check out lines to a standstill, the store's manager announced that the store would bag up everybody's groceries for free.

A video captured in the H-E-B store shows long lines of shoppers waiting for the system to come back online when the store manager makes the announcement.

"We love having you as our customers, thank you for waiting with us," the manager says in the video. "Unfortunately, the computers are not coming back up right now, so today everything that you have we are going to bag you up and we hope that every one of you has a very merry Christmas and continue to shop with us."

In a world of AI videos and cheapfakes, some people doubted the authenticity of this video. H-E-B posted to X confirming that it did indeed happen. 
One customer expressed her joy over this unexpected occurrence:

It was a "Godsend" to one customer who said she was waiting in line for two hours and got a cart full of groceries to feed her kids and grandkids for the holidays, she told WFAA.

"(It) brought tears to my eyes (and) we all gave them a round of applause," Melinda Brown wrote. "I asked the checker 'for real?' and she said 'yep! Merry Christmas. What a gift!"

H-E-B said it was all about the customers:

In a statement, H-E-B said it is committed to serving its customers year-round, especially during the holidays.

"During this busy holiday season when our registers were temporarily down at one of our stores, we gave all those with full baskets their groceries for free," the statement reads. "The customer experience is at the heart of what we do!"

Emphasis on "heart." Some mother who was about to spend her last dollars to ensure Christmas dinner is on the table received a tremendous gift and a surplus in her bank account. You can't buy this amount of goodwill, but because H-E-B chose not just to give away their products, but to give back time, peace of mind, and compassion to its customers, their customer loyalty and PR quotient will no doubt reap dividends. In 2026, they may move to the top slot of privately-owned companies, especially if they continue to prioritize their customers over their bottom line.

This made for a Happy Christmas for all!
