New in PJ Media:
So here we are after a truly extraordinary first week of the second Trump administration, and how is the left holding up? Not so well, I’m afraid. It looks as if the forest bathing and other soul-soothing activities didn’t work, and thus after a week of energetic making-America-great-again activity, leftists are sadder and angrier than ever and looking for ways to maintain their fragile emotional equilibrium.
We’re talking about people who believe that men can become women, Hamas jihadis are “resistance fighters,” and Kamala Harris was a competent and compelling candidate, so their mental health wasn’t all that great to begin with. But Trump being so energetic in service of the good and the true has just about sent them around the bend.
Salon.com accordingly offered on Monday an article with the lugubrious title of “Surviving ‘political grief’: You’re not alone, and there is a path forward.” It doesn’t paint a pretty picture if you’re a thoroughly indoctrinated Marxist who is desperately worried about “climate change” and “trans rights,” for everything is going down the drain: “Donald Trump is now the 47th president of the United States. Compared to the horrible things that will happen in America over (at least) the next four years, the weeks between Election Day and his inauguration may be remembered as the good times.”
What horrible things? Well, if everything goes according to plan, inflation will slow, gas prices and taxes will go down, wages will rise, the border will be secured, and numerous illegal and criminal migrants will be deported. What’s not to like? Plenty, if you’re an America-hating leftist, and hordes of the nose-ringed, blue-haired, black-clad masses have a tremendous case of the sads.
Salon’s Chauncey DeVega lamented: “The shadow of Jan. 20, and the cruel coincidence that it fell this year on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s remembrance day, hung over us all. King was among American history’s great defenders of democracy and human rights; Trump is a committed enemy of those values.” This only makes sense when you remember that for the left, “democracy and human rights” means the left winning every election and restricting the speech of those whom it fears and hates. Trump is for a free society with a robust opposition and no restrictions on speech, and so for leftists, “democracy” is under threat.
And so, DeVega tells us, “millions of Americans who voted for Kamala Harris, and who believe in American democracy and the common good, remain collectively stuck in the various stages of grief.” Like all totalitarians, they expect us all to march in lockstep; they’re even sadder because of the fact that some Americans aren’t sad at all: “That grief is made even more painful by the fact that tens of millions of other Americans are jubilant at Trump’s return to the White House and his vows of revenge against ‘the enemy within’ as part making America ‘great again.’”
There is more. Read the rest here.

As the Left weakens, they partner more strongly with terrorist Islam’s Muslims against America, Israel, and the West to help gain more power and control. Islam is a MUSLIM TERRORIST ORGANIZATION against all Non-Muslims as taught in the Quran and NOT A PEACEFUL RELIGION UNDER WESTERN LAWS(Quran 2:216; 4:95; 8:12,39,74; 9:5,29,41,49, 88,111,123;21:92; 49:15 and more). More specifically, Islam is a Muslim Terrorist Ideology and Criminal Organization of continuous war, discrimination, segregation, supremacy, genocide, polygamy, deceit, hatred, incitement, sedition, rape, terrorism, and violence against all Non-Muslims as taught in the Quran. Fundamentally, Islam funds, teaches, and promotes a Terrorist Criminal Enterprise. The FRUIT of Islam is continual WAR, terrorism, discrimination, and violence against all Non-Muslims; this FACT must be taught and broadcast to the general public to prohibit Islam, its Mosques, and its Schools. Also, Islam is an Antichrist System terrorizing Israel, Christians, and Non-Muslims. Plus, there is NO EQUALITY UNDER THE LAW in Islam or in Islamic Law(Quran 98:6-7; 9:29 and more). In Sahih Bukhari(V6,B60,N80), Abu Huraira narrates, “‘You(Muslims) are the best of peoples ever raised for mankind.’ means, the best of peoples for the people, as you bring them[Non-Muslims] with chains on their necks till they embrace Islam[see Quran 3:110].” See also Quran 3:22,151; 69:30-32; 98:6.
Non-Muslims CANNOT have peace with Islam and its Muslims because Islam and its murderous god, Allah, demand a continuous, Muslim war against unbelievers where Non-Muslims are CRIMINALS under Islam as Allah in Qur’an 8:39 says, “And engage in war with them[Non-Muslims] until there will not be sedition and the religion will be completely to Allah…” HENCE, NON-MUSLIMS MUST MAKE ISLAM, ITS MOSQUES, ITS SCHOOLS, ITS ORGANIZATIONS, ETC. ILLEGAL UNDER THE LAW. Similarly, Islam and its many Organizations must be identified and publicly declared to be MUSLIM TERRORIST ORGANIZATIONS for their funding, teaching, and support of terrorism, violence, and discrimination against Non-Muslims(eg. Quran 9:5,29,111 and more).
Islam promotes a terroristic, Muslim war against unbelievers when Allah in Qur’an 49:15 says, “Surely the believers are only those who believed in Allah and his messenger. They do not doubt, and they performed JIHAD with THEIR MONEY AND THEIR LIVES for the sake of Allah. Those are the truthful.”
Deceitful Allah promises Heavenly Paradise to Muslims for acts of Muslim killing in a terrorist war against Non-Muslims and hypocrites when Quran 9:111 says, “Surely Allah has purchased from the believers[Muslims] their souls and their money so that they may have the garden[Heavenly Paradise]. They engage in war for the sake of Allah, so they kill and are killed…”

A guy holding a sign that says “Don’t let Trump make a fool of you”.
Now there’s a fool who imagines there’s no irony in what he’s doing.
How about screaming “Don’t let Trump upset you!”
James Lincoln says
Pres. Trump goes against everything that leftists stand for.
I say, let them suffer – in their own ignorance.
