Obama Whines About A “Loss Of Decorum”

By William Teach February 15, 2026 – 7:00 am

You have to give credit to Barry Obama, he has some serious huzzpah trying this

Obama pushes back on White House rhetoric, ape video: Decorum has ‘been lost’

Former President Obama argued in an interview published Saturday that American politics has become a “clown show” under the second Trump administration, suggesting that many Americans dislike the rhetoric coming out of the White House in recent months.

Obama made the comparison while addressing a controversial video posted on President Trump’s Truth Social account earlier this month that briefly depicted the former president and his wife, former first lady Michelle Obama, as apes.

Trump has refused to apologize for the video despite strong bipartisan backlash. Instead, the White House blamed a staffer for “erroneously” making the post, and it was taken down. (snip)

Obama proposed that while that kind of rhetoric successfully draws people’s attention and serves as “distraction,” most people “still believe in decency, courtesy, [and] kindness.”

“There’s this sort of clown show that’s happening on social media and on television,” he said.

“And what is true is that there doesn’t seem to be any shame about this among people who used to feel like you had to have some sort of decorum and a sense of propriety and respect for the office, right? So that’s been lost,” he continued.

Now, look, I do think the video went to far, and was something that the POTUS should never have retweeted. But, Obama is the last person who should be talking about decorum. His whole political life has been dirty, though, he usually gets others to do the dirty work. Remember how he got elected in the first place, by releasing the divorce papers for his opponent, Craig Schelske, which also harmed Sarah Evans and their kids. He did not care. I used to have a long list of the people Obama smeared and ran over with his bus, but, I think I deleted that page when he left office.

How many times did he Blame Bush? He threw the Boston and Ferguson police under his bush. Netanyahu multiple times. The Dali Lama. How about being involved with the smears against Trump which caused Trump to run for office then the smears while Trump was running. The whole Russian crap? Referring to millions of American Tea Party members as “tea baggers”? Mitt Romney was going to kill your grandmother (among others)? And so, so much more. So, save me the crocodile tears. Obama is scum. Worse than the normal politician.

Oh, let’s not forget his lies about keeping your health plan and doctor if you like them. Suing nuns. Destroying the health system.

Bummer: Orange Man Bad Erases Govt’s Power To Regulate You Via Climate (scam)

By William Teach February 14, 2026 – 3:09 pm

Do the Credentialed Media Elites listen to themselves? Consider what they are really saying?

Trump Administration Erases the Government’s Power to Fight Climate Change

President Trump on Thursday announced he was erasing the scientific finding that climate change endangers human health and the environment, ending the federal government’s legal authority to control the pollution that is dangerously heating the planet.

The action is a key step in removing limits on carbon dioxide, methane and four other greenhouse gases that scientists say are supercharging heat waves, droughts, wildfires and other extreme weather.

Led by a president who refers to climate change as a “hoax,” the administration is essentially saying that the vast majority of scientists around the world are wrong and that a hotter planet is not the menace that decades of research shows it to be.

It’s a rejection of fact that had been accepted for decades by presidents of both parties, including Richard Nixon, whose top adviser warned of the dangers of climate change, and the first President George Bush, who signed an international climate treaty.

Bush the elder did not sign a climate treaty, he signed an ozone pact. Bill Clinton dropped the Kyoto protocol climate treaty because it couldn’t be passed by the Senate and he knew it would be damaging to the economy. And scientists can say all they want, but, they cannot prove it, and they cannot definitely say scientifically that this warm period is any different from others. Regardless, why does ever ‘climate change’ proposal enable government to grow stronger and more controlling?

It’s really “the power to regulate you”. Similar to the NY Times article I excerpted.

Trump: There Will Be Voter ID Requirements One Way Or Another For Midterms

By William Teach February 14, 2026 – 10:30 am

Can he do this?

Trump pushes voter ID ‘whether approved by Congress or not!’

President Donald Trump insisted Friday that voter ID requirements will be in place for this year’s midterm elections regardless of congressional approval, escalating his push for sweeping changes to how Americans vote.

“There will be Voter I.D. for the Midterm Elections, whether approved by Congress or not!” the president wrote on Truth Social. He also said he “searched the depths” of legal arguments on the issue and would be “presenting an irrefutable one in the very near future,” though he did not specify what legal rationale he would rely on.

“If we can’t get it through Congress, there are Legal reasons why this SCAM is not permitted,” Trump wrote in a separate lengthy post shortly after, adding that he would present his justification in the form of an executive order.

Trump has been personally involved in efforts to tighten voter registration standards nationwide, backing the SAVE America Act — an updated GOP election bill that would overhaul federal voting rules. The legislation would require voters to show proof of citizenship to register, mandate photo ID when voting in person and direct states to remove noncitizens from existing voter rolls.

All those things, particularly the last two, are extremely popular with the American people. The question is, can he do this? Is there language in previously passed legislation that authorizes the Executive Branch to do this? I mean, Obama and Biden sure used little language to force EOs through. And Congress has done a stellar job in writing legislation over the last 50 years that is entirely to open, giving the Executive enormous latitude to manufacture EOs. Where’d the contraception mandate come from? There’s nothing in Obamacare about it. Zip. Nada. Was there something in other legislation?

But, I’m not sure how I feel about this if Trump does it unless there is some pretty damned good language from legislation. Things like this should be authorized specifically by Congressional legislation. That’s the way the system is supposed to work. So, I guess we wait to see what the EO lays out if Trump releases it.

Doom Today: ‘Climate Change’ Is Putting Olympics Mascots In Jeopardy Or Something

By William Teach February 14, 2026 – 7:00 am

I wonder how long AP “news” writers Jennifer McDermott and Brittany Peterson worked to find a link that involved the Olympics?

Beloved Olympic mascots are color-changing critters that are vulnerable to climate change

The pair of animals chosen as mascots of the Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games are stoats — weasel-like creatures that are at risk because of climate change. One of them is brown and the other is white, because in cold climates, the tiny animals’ fur changes from brown to white for winter, to blend in with the landscape.

However, stoats are increasingly turning white before there is any snow on the ground, leaving them vulnerable to predators — their snow-white coats amid dirt and rocks is like a target on their backs for sharp-eyed raptors.

Olympic organizers haven’t talked about that, at least not so far.

They say the mascots are meant to welcome people and communicate that these Games are infused with Italian spirit.

In other words, they aren’t interested in discussing cult business

Marco Granata, a doctoral student who researches stoats at the University of Turin in Italy, thinks the organizers are missing out on an opportunity to educate people a bit more and help this animal.

“It’s ironic because everyone now is talking about stoats, looking for stoats, but no one knows about real stoats, mostly because the Olympic committee didn’t inform the population about it,” he told The Associated Press.

No one cares, leave us the F alone. Can we just have sports?

Now, let’s talk Science. What happened with the stoats over the last 8,000 years when the climate flipped from a cool to a warm period? Did they start changing to white coats early, and eventually adapt? Do we have those comparisons to previous warm and cool periods? Because without those comparisons what the cult is saying now is meaningless.

Horror: ICE Spending $38 Billion Making Warehouses Into Detainment Centers

By William Teach February 14, 2026 – 6:45 am

Suddenly Democrats find $38 billion to be a big number when it comes to detaining illegals, when you had NYC spending $5 billion in 2024, Chicago over $300 million, and many more Dem run cities spending hundreds of millions. Some measures show that illegals cost $42 billion in welfare benefits (which they aren’t supposed to receive) a year

ICE to spend $38bn turning warehouses into detention centers, documents show

US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) expects to spend an estimated $38.3bn on a plan to acquire warehouses across the country and retrofit them into new immigration detention centers with capacity for tens of thousands of detainees, according to documents the agency sent to the governor of New Hampshire.

The documents, published on the state’s website on Thursday, disclose that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) estimates it will spend $158m retrofitting a new detention facility in Merrimack, New Hampshire, and an additional estimated $146m to operate the facility in the first three years.

According to an overview of the plans, which were first reported by the Washington Post, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) would buy and convert 16 buildings across the US into regional processing centers, each holding between 1,000 and 1,500 people at a time. Another eight large-scale detention centers would hold 7,000 to 10,000 people at a time and serve as “the primary locations” for deportations. Detainees would spend an average of three to seven days at the processing sites before being transported to the larger facilities, where they would be held about 60 days before being deported.

They can all avoid this by self deporting. It would have been a lot easier if the Biden admin hadn’t let in millions of illegals/fake asylum seekers.

Good News: A Wind Power Freighter Could Launch In 2027

By William Teach February 13, 2026 – 3:00 pm

This is revolutionary, people!

From the link

A 100% wind-powered cargo ship that can dramatically cut transatlantic shipping times and carbon emissions, according to its operator, could launch in early 2027.

French company Vela will run a service between France and the US with its custom-made seacraft. The 220-foot (67-meter) long, 82-foot (25-meter) wide vessel will be able to transport just over 400 metric tons of cargo, and was designed with the input of Vela cofounder François Gabart, a professional yacht racer and the fastest sailor to circumnavigate the globe solo.

The trimaran, with two smaller hulls on either side of a central hull, will be propelled by sails extending 200 feet (61 meters) above the waterline, with onboard power for living and working quarters, plus temperature-controlled cargo holds, provided by solar panels and two hydro generators. Vela says it will travel at an average speed of 14 knots — equivalent to the speed of a modern container ship — between New Jersey and Normandy or Bordeaux, France.

Um, OK? Spanish galleons were capable of carrying 500 to 1,200 tons of cargo back in 1600s and 1700s. Nice to see that the climate cult has made progress.

The vessel can hold approximately five times the capacity of a cargo plane, says the company. Vela positions its services somewhere between conventional sea and air freight: quicker than sea freight, slower than air freight, and with much lower emissions than either.

Maybe, but planes can make it across the Atlantic in what, 7 hours or so? Not the 3-5 days it will take a cargo boat. Depending upon wind. Storms.

The vessel carries around 100 times less than a conventional container ship, meaning loading and unloading times are shorter, he added, and its size means it can enter secondary port terminals that have less congestion and quicker docking times.

Progress!

Vela is not the only French company launching purely wind-powered freight. Grand de Sail Logistics is offering 18-day port-to-port services between Saint-Malo, Brittany and New York on its cargo sailboat, which has a 50-ton capacity. And in the UK, Shipped by Sail operates as a broker for the transportation of low-volume, ethically produced goods, like Colombian coffee and Portuguese olive oil.

They should have these for passengers. Anyone professing membership in the cult should be required to take these instead of fossil fueled fligths.
