HALF-FULL REPORT 01/23/26

You may not recognize who this is, nor his name Francois Marie Arouet, but you’ll certainly know his pen name – Voltaire (1694-1778).  If he were alive today, he would instantly understand what the agenda of the Dems and the Woke Left is all about.

He explained it succinctly in the 11^th Letter of his Lettres sur les Miracles (Letters on Miracles), written in 1765.  Translated from the French, Voltaire observed:

“Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities”

Think of what that explains right now.  What greater absurdity could there be that if a man with an XY chromosome says he is a woman with an XX chromosome, then he actually has become a woman?

In last week’s (1/14) Senate Health Committee hearing on chemical abortion drugs, Sen. Josh Hawley asked pro-abortion ob/gyn MD Nisha Verma, “Can men get pregnant?” She refused to say Yes or No.  He kept asking her, a medical doctor who teaches medicine at Emory University Medical School, repeatedly and she always weaseled out of answering.  You can watch this farce here.

The day before (1/13), the Supreme Court heard oral arguments in two cases challenging state laws that ban biological males from competing in biological female sports.   The Woke Tranny Lunacy has actually reached the Supreme Court.

Destroying women’s sports and indeed, the very identity of women, is part of the Left’s Destruction of Civilization agenda.  So is murder.

Last Friday (1/16), Charlie Kirk’s murderer, Tyler Robinson, was in court with his expensive defense attorneys pleading for frivolous delays.  Robinson is a homosexual whose “lover” Lance Twiggs  is a biological male “transitioning” from male to female.

All of us are all too aware of the sickening plethora of woketards praising the murder of Charlie.  Voltaire would understand.  So whenever you hear of yet another lunacy of the Left making headlines, now you’ll have Voltaire’s explanation of it.

🚨 BREAKING: President Trump is CALLING OUT the “stupid people” who support wind energy in Davos

“China is smart. They make windmills, sell ’em for a fortune, and sell ’em to the STUPID PEOPLE that buy them!” 🤣

On Wednesday (1/21), POTUS addressed the World Economic Forum at Davos, Switzerland. This little clip is just an amuse-bouche for the whole 75-minute talk, so full of Trump LOL humor, insights, putdowns, brutal truths, it ran the gamut.  You can watch it entire; for convenience, you can scroll the full transcript searching for the most delightful moments.

Or here’s a quick summation by Fred Fleitz: Trump Owned Davos. Yet it wasn’t all Trump at Davos.  Here’s Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick obliterating Davos’ globalism:

Must watch! This is the most important and the best speech given at the World Economic Forum in Davos.

US Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick:

“We are here to make a very clear point: globalization has failed the West, and the United States of America.
Our workers come first.… pic.twitter.com/cdSekxqdKx

And Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent obliterating CA’s loathsome Gov. Newscum, with quips such as: “Newsom’s here this week with his billionaire sugar daddy, Alex Soros.  I think it’s very, very ironic that Newsom — who strikes me as Patrick Bateman meets Sparkle Beach Ken — may be the only Californian who knows less about economics than Kamala Harris.”

🚨 HOLY CRAP! Scott Bessent just PUMMELED Gavin Newsom in Davos

WEF at Davos will never be the same.

Trump talked a lot about Greenland in his Davos speech, then worked out a “framework” of an acceptable deal with NATO chief Mark Rutte for all parties.  Most of it seems to involve the Thule Air Base in the far northwest that the US has had since 1951, and has been renamed the Pituffik Space Base.

I have been in that area over a dozen times, primarily to the Inuit community of Qaanaaq north of Thule.  In 1982, I went to Thule/Pituffik with Clint Eastwood as I was his Arctic location advisor for his movie Firefox.

The first thing to realize about Greenland is that it’s not nearly as big as most maps show.  There’s a website, truesize.com, where you can move countries around to see how they compare to others.  Greenland is 836,000 square miles, just a bit bigger than Saudi Arabia at 830,000 square miles:

Incidentally, just for fun, you can fit most of Russia into the Sahara Desert:

So Greenland’s real size makes it easier to defend and protect.  Joseph Cotto makes a good case this week in TTP for why Greenland is important for US national security.  The main threat, though, is China, not Russia.

When Russia breaks apart, as it’s teetering on the edge of that already, China will not only seize Russia’s Eastern Siberia, but control the Northeast Passage from Europe to China along what was Russia’s Arctic Ocean coastline. China may well establish ICBM sites along that coast aiming nukes at us. The missile flight paths would go right over Greenland.

Our POTUS thinks long range and protecting our national security is his primary goal. Having Greenland be a part of his Golden Dome missile defense system is necessary.

That is why Trump wants Greenland, and has no intention of letting bruised Danish egos get in the way.

On Monday (1/19): China Hits Lowest Birth Rate Since Communist Revolution of 1949

“The Chinese government on Monday released its latest round of dismal demographic data, revealing birth rates have hit their lowest level since the Communist revolution of 1949, and the population is still declining despite years of expensive efforts to convince more couples to have children.”

Xi has got to correct this, and bribing women to have babies isn’t good enough – they have to be excited about the future, and potential fathers do too.  A Chinese Siberia with an explosion of new production of its abundant natural resources would really help.

Meanwhile… yesterday at Davos, Finland President Alexander Stubb made this statement:

“For what purpose did 34,000 Russian soldiers die in December, 34,000 dead, dead soldiers? Just to claim that they captured Kupiansk, even though they didn’t, and they claimed twice and didn’t twice? Have faith, Ukraine is going to win this war.”

Once Russia loses – specifically, once Putin is perceived by the Russian people that he has lost his war – the breakup of Russia begins.  What happened to the Soviet Union is the fate of Putin’s Russia

Okay, Folks, that’s a wrap.  Please stay warm this weekend as this massive snow and ice storm hits from Maine to Arizona.  I’ve been a lot at the North Pole and know how quickly one can get frostbite – within a few minutes – if you’re not dressed right.  North Pole weather has arrived to America.

The only bright spot is that it may, maybe just maybe, get some climate alarmists to understand their secular religion is a hoax.  The real fear is another Ice Age, not this Man-Made Global Warming hokum.

But alas, the alarmist crazies will undoubtedly claim that this snow/ice storm is being caused by Global Warming. They deserve to get frostbite.
