I don’t know where this narrative that Trump loves H-1Bs comes from. His actions against it clearly speak for themselves.

People don’t even try anymore to be realistic. They just do what Candace or Nick Fuentes does and jump to the most extreme or least likely thing and act like if it isn’t that then it’s over.

What’s that? There were no border crossings? Yeah where are my trains going to mexicaushwitz to kill all the illegals here.

What’s that? The FBI is putting together a case on Ilhan Omar? Why haven’t they burnt her entire bloodline at the stake yet?

What’s that? H1Bs are down? Why hasn’t Trump deputized us all to hunt down Indians with MAGA coon skin hats?

The new move is “Trump said he was going to kill every single Persian person, why hasn’t he nuked Iran yet? Smh I’m voting democrat.”
 
I did a Space last night with former Casey Putsch campaign worker George Roush discussing why Putsch lost. George unfortunately did not record it but here is my summary:

- Casey COULD have won. Early campaign analytics had Putsch beating Vivek Ramasmarmy with 54 percent of the vote. That was in December.
- Casey became the candidate because George had been canvassing for someone to run against Vivek and Casey was the only one who stepped up. So thank you to Casey for that at least.
- Casey had incredible access to the resources he needed to win. He had a number of big donors who were ready to open their wallets, he had Turning Point staff working on his campaign, and he had access to institutional GOP support.
- Putsch largely ruined his chances through his narcissism and ego. He refused to take his campaign's advice, refused to moderate his presentation to appeal to Ohio voters (the advice I gave last night---don't attack Trump, don't sperg out about Israel, don't stunt on social media---was told to him repeatedly by his own staffers), steadfully refused to fundraise, and was habitually abusive to his workers to the point where he had a revolving door on personnel. Casey even refused to attend policy meetings, then would go on interviews where he embarrassed himself, then blamed his campaign staff even though he refused to put in any work himself. George himself departed the campaign in February due to the hostile work environment that Casey had created and the harm that Casey's antics were doing to George's professional relationships.
- Kim Georgeton, Casey's running mate, was a consummate professional who did far more work and was far more of a team player than him. She would actually listen to staffers, helped develop policy, networked at GOP events on her own time, and actually took the campaign seriously.
- The Ohio GOP played dirty. The campaign had a consistent problem with retaining personnel. Casey barely qualified for the ballot due to a complete meltdown in signature gathering.
- The Putsch campaign's initial strategy was to use a mix of positive press from sympathetic journalists (I was one of the ones they reached out to) and trolling the MSM in order to keep the GOP from "smothering the campaign in silence." This was to be followed by Casey doing a hard pivot to position himself as a normal Christian candidate, starting with Casey doing a Christmas photo op on the one-year anniversary of Vivek's Christmas Crashout. Casey refused to go along with the pivot and a crucial opportunity was lost.
- Casey largely checked out of his own campaign at the end of February in favor of trolling on social media and focusing on his YouTube channel. By that point, his remaining staffers had determined he could not win. The votes that Casey got were entirely due to what was left of his campaign doing outreach and networking and not due to Casey himself. As George put it, without that infrastructure, Casey would have gotten five percent of the vote at most.
- America First United (Anti-Semitic Fyre Fest) in many ways symbolized the failure of the Putsch campaign. Casey chose to hobnob with a bunch of influencer freaks that were poison to the voters he needed to win. Casey himself was obsessed with getting an endorsement from Nick Fuentes despite his staffers telling him this was a terrible idea.
- The Retard Right is in the middle of collapse. George pointed out that Putsch ratioed Nick Fuentes a few days ago. A certain other Retard Right political candidate who has openly attacked me is liking all my posts attacking Fuentes. More public recriminations are coming.
- George's organization has successfully built an infrastructure that they can use to run insurgent candidates anywhere in Ohio. This means that future candidates, better ones, can take the lessons learned from Putsch's failure and win.
- A significant number of boomers really do hate young Americans. As part of the campaign, Putsch's volunteers would point out Vivek's Christmas Crashout to boomer Republican voters. A disturbingly large share of them agreed with Vivek and said they would vote for him BECAUSE of the crashout, because they thought kids these days are lazy and ungrateful. We have a LOT of work to do to overcome this hurdle.

I'm grateful to George for doing the Space and sharing what happened. Also looking forward to what his organization does from here on out. This isn't about Casey Putsch. This is a generational struggle which will have many losses until we win

Biggest take away

Same. I went a few months ago for a bit of a booboo. Small hospital in small city. Geriatrics and Mennonites with lots of children, and a few asians and various latino/as among the staff.

But the gas station down the street I stopped at was fully jeetified. Now, I know a few murricanized jeets that are decent to pretty cool ackshually, but their more "recently arrived brethren?" They can just fuck all the way off back to jeetistan.

Last Christmas I went to go see some family in the middle of nowhere. Thankfully there were no jeets at the gas stations I was at. The problem I noticed was that for one of these gas stations, this was the only source of food in the area. All of the food there was the worst goyslop I had ever seen. Libcuck urban reformers keep crying about how no grocery store wants to open up in a Black area because if they do they'll get all their shit stolen, but nobody talks about how these isolated rural communities just have nothing nutritional within a twenty-five mile radius.

the narrative came from him being on record praising work visa programs, namely with his proposed shifts being towards "higher earning immigrants" as opposed to bringing in h1bs to work at 7/11. didn't he also say that he wants to automatically grant green cards to foreigners that graduate from US colleges? so i guess his position of wanting work visa foreigners to replace high earning americans and flooding future sectors with auto green card college graduates is better?

saying that he's anti work visa is disingenuous and it comes off as ballwashing.
 
Gov. Abbott just had a huge W against CAIR after a federal court ruled that CAIR needs to provide financial information to the government.


1778120782943.png

CAIR is so protective of their source of funding that the last time they were required to do this, they chose to pay out a settlement instead of revealing it:


A Washington-based Muslim nonprofit, which is one of the largest operating across the US, agreed this week to settle a case brought by a former board member and employee rather than open its books to reveal sources of foreign funding, The Post has learned.

Evidence in past court proceedings has shown links between The Council on American-Islamic Relations Foundation Inc. and both Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood.

CAIR Inc. settled with Lori Saroya Thursday, months after US Magistrate Judge David Schultz ruled any assets owned by the group are all within the “scope of permissible discovery” as part of the former Minnesota chapter leader’s lawsuit against the controversial Muslim rights group.

This is a major self own by CAIR after they sued Gov. Abbott for labeling them a Foreign Terrorist Organization.

They are now required to disclose:

• Foreign donors who gave $5,000+ (2021-2024) to CAIR or its Washington Trust Foundation.

• Recipients of CAIR’s $2,500+ “donations.”

• Communications about soliciting or receiving foreign funds.

• Nihad Awad’s itineraries - dates, meetings, and who he met with in Egypt, Gaza, Iran, Jordan, Lebanon, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and UAE regarding CAIR operations, funding, Hamas, or the Muslim Brotherhood (Oct 2019–Sep 2023).

• Hit counts on terms like “Hamas,” “Muslim Brotherhood,” “October 7,” “Jihad,” “Sinwar,” “Haniyeh,” “Holy Land Foundation,” and more

More notes on Putsch.

Casey ended his own campaign when he counter-signaled Trump.

But that's not all of it: at the beginning of the race, the White House extended multiple olive branches to Casey, and he refused all of them.

- Whitehouse staffers offered to have Casey go to DC for a weekend photo op where he would meet with automotive industry reps and help develop new highway and vehicle standards policy (refused)

- Members of the RNC in other states, who were high level staffers during the previous Trump campaigns offered their assistance for free (Casey refused to return their calls)

- Staffers for various Trump admin key players offered their assistance in the campaign for free provided that Casey would agree to support the administration in its efforts. (Casey refused most of their help, embarrassed the one who the campaign managers and I were able to get onto the team, and then fired him)

Guys I wanna be able to call Indians Indians again and not have to specify, can we give them that name back and find something else for people from India? I suggest Hindoos, which Lovecraft uses. If they're not Hindoo, just call them a Paki or a Sikh.

Ah, you must be that equally vile substrain of the subhumans of the subcontinent known as the Paki then. Come here so I may measure your cranium for scientific record, lower hominid.

Quick question, is this an environment where people can grow their own food like potatoes and apples and cows and such that let them get by without having to buy all their food from a massive distribution system?
Because I can't help but suspect that your family there has more nutrition in their backyard then I do for several blocks around my apartment.

Unless this is like the middle of the salt flats or something.
