THE NAZI LEFT AND THE SOURCE OF TRUMP HATRED

Dr. Jack Wheeler May 4, 2026

[This Monday’s Archive was originally published on June 9, 2017. Now, with the 5^th attempt on President Trump little more than a week ago, it’s critical to understand what’s motivating the lunatic White Auto-Nazi Left, and what at least a partial solution might be.]

TTP, June 9, 2017

This is no hyperbole. Calling someone a “Nazi” is, along with “Fascist” the most ignorantly over-used hyperbolic insult the Left can hurl at anyone they hate.

Like the insult “Racist,” the Left has divested these insults of meaning, as are schoolyards taunts, “You stink!” or yelling “Boo!” and hissing at a referee’s bad call at a football game.

To call someone a Nazi for real is serious business. It’s accusing them of wanting to commit racial slaughter of fellow human beings on a massive scale. It’s accusing them of advocating a politics of criminal insanity, of being irretrievably evil and criminally insane themselves.

Yet that is what the Left in America is becoming before our eyes in broad daylight. You want to know how Germans, one of the most intelligent, accomplished, and cultured people on the planet became Nazis in the 1930s – look at what is happening to the Left, to the Democrat Party, to the Fake News Media right now.

The circumstances and proximate causes are different. History does not repeat itself. Here is what is happening now.

BALLOONS OVER BURMA

Dr. Jack Wheeler May 4, 2026

From the 900s to the 1200s, the Pagan Empire built over 10,000 Buddhist temples. 2,200 remain on the plains of Pagan today, one of the world’s most wondrous sights – especially if you see them from above in a hot air balloon. It is truly astounding how much there is to explore and experience in Burma. We’ll be there once more for it all next year. I hope you will be one of your fellow TTPers to join us.

HALF-FULL REPORT 05/01/26

Dr. Jack Wheeler May 1, 2026

Welcome to the May Day HFR! It’s a TTP tradition to call May 1^st Commie Day, today attached below as an Addendum. And what better day to celebrate the Doom of the Democrats graphically represented by the map above?

For as you well know, Louisiana 6^th is the Congressional District SCOTUS ruled 6-3 ereyesterday, Wednesday April 29, as an “unconstitutional racial gerrymander.”

So you get to laugh your head off at the woke toad-brain the Dems have as their House Minority Leader whining about what just happened: "Now, we're at a point, where affirmative action is gone. Diversity is gone. Equity gone. Inclusion gone. Racial tolerance gone. Voting Rights Act, largely gone! But guess what, extremists – we’re still here, and weren’t not going anywhere."

🚨 JUST IN: Hakeem Jeffries delivers MAJOR MESSAGE for all of America to hear after the Supreme Court ruling — and he's FURIOUS

Music to your ears, yes? And guess what, Demtards? You’re right, you aren’t going anywhere, you’re doomed to staying in minority status, House & Senate. You can now kiss your dream goodbye of winning the midterms, impeaching Trump yet again, ruining America – it’s all gone, da svidanya, arrivederci, adios, you are in the ashcan of history.

This really is a fabulous HFR. Wait ‘till you hear about Michelle Obama and Cialis. So much more. Saddle up!

LAND OF THE THUNDER DRAGON

Dr. Jack Wheeler April 27, 2026

The photo above is the Tiger’s Nest, the Taktsang Monastery in the Himalayan Kingdom of Bhutan. It is a country as close to the Shangri-La of James Hilton’s 1933 classic “Lost Horizon” as you’ll find on earth today.

Smaller than West Virginia, hidden between Tibet and the crest of the Himalayas to the steamy jungles of India, Bhutan is known as the Land of the Thunder Dragon. Independent for centuries and never colonized, Bhutan is a magic place that is spectacularly unique.

Experiencing Bhutan is a true adventure. Quite frankly, Bhutan is as fabulously exotic as our world gets. At the same time, no other country is as serenely peaceful as Bhutan, no people more contented and cheerful as the Bhutanese, no land more welcoming and hospitable.

Bhutan’s culture is a unique mix of the ancient Himalayan animism called Bön and Tibetan Lama Buddhism. The Bhutanese are renowned for being among the happiest people on our planet. They love to laugh, sing, dance, and play – and you’ll be invited to join them. Bhutanese happiness is infectious. One very good reason you’ll have a happy time of your lives on our Bhutan adventure.

Ready? Buckle up – and be prepared, you’ve never experienced anything so extraordinary in your life. Proof is in the pictures.

MAINSTREAMING VIOLENCE AGAINST A PRESIDENT

Victor Davis Hanson April 30, 2026

Same old, same old: Target Trump.

At the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, President Donald Trump was the target of yet a third assassination attempt — this time in full view of the Washington press corps.

The event was presented as a spirited night with Trump.

After 11 years of avoiding the predominantly left-wing media event, he decided to revisit the dinner. He anticipated that he would be the object of ridicule inside the hall — and that he might see possible violence outside it.

Indeed, protesters ringed the hotel. In grimly prescient fashion, the usual sort of crowd that night was channeling John Wilkes Booth — sic semper tyrannis — with placards reading “Death to Tyrants.”

They again almost got their wish.

TRUMP’S PLAN TO SIDELINE THE IMF AND ENFORCE DOLLAR DOMINANCE

Rod D. Martin April 29, 2026

A relatively obscure headline crossed the wires last week, the kind most people skim past without a second thought.

The Trump Administration is considering dollar swap lines with key Gulf and Asian allies, including the United Arab Emirates, much like the one executed with Argentina last year.

That sounds technical. It sounds arcane. It sounds like the sort of thing only central bankers, bond traders, and Treasury staffers need to understand.

It is not.

Reuters reported that Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the United States is discussing currency swap lines after “a number of allies” sought help dealing with fallout from the Iran war.

He added that additional swap lines could reinforce dollar usage and liquidity internationally, maintain smooth dollar funding markets, promote trade and investment with the United States, and serve as “a major first step” toward creating new U.S. dollar funding centers in the Gulf and Asia.

That last phrase is the tell: new U.S. dollar funding centers.

This is not just about the UAE, Argentina, or anyone else just named. It is about the architecture of global finance. It may represent the biggest shift in the global financial order since Nixon closed the gold window in 1971.

For half a century, the dollar has been the global reserve currency, the operating system of the world economy. Everyone complains about it. Everyone predicts its demise. Every few years, some new theory emerges about the euro, the yuan, BRICS, SDRs, gold, crypto, or the “petroyuan” bringing the dollar empire to its knees.

It isn’t going to happen. It wasn’t going to anyway. Now Trump and Bessent are restructuring the global financial system to ensure permanent dollar dominance.

SCOVA CALLS OUT DEMS OVER BRAZEN GERRYMANDER POWER GRAB

Teri Christoph April 28, 2026

The Supreme Court of Virginia, otherwise known as SCOVA, heard oral arguments Monday morning over legal and constitutional challenges to the gerrymandered congressional map that was approved via referendum last Tuesday, and a few of the Justices had pointed questions for the pro-gerrymander side.

As RedState previously reported, Virginia voters approved an amendment to the state constitution that removes redistricting power from a non-partisan commission and places it with state lawmakers (a/k/a, Democrats).

The final numbers were closer than expected, with the yes side garnering around 51 percent of the vote and the no side coming in at 48.5 percent. Those numbers could still change as the counts from mail-in ballots are finalized.

The result of last week's election was that voters essentially signed off on the brazenly gerrymandered map designed by Democrats that would move the commonwealth from a 6D-5R congressional makeup to a 10D-1R one. There's only one thing that can stop it from being adopted: the courts. And that brings us to Monday's showdown at SCOVA.

ANOTHER BIDEN ADMINISTRATION ELECTION COVER-UP

Sam Faddis April 28, 2026

Newly declassified intelligence shows that U.S. intelligence discovered the threat of Chinese access and control of U.S. election systems — then buried the evidence and punished those who exposed it.

In 2022, the election security firm True the Vote broke the story that a company called Konnech in Michigan was storing data on American election workers on servers in China. True the Vote leaders Catherine Engelbrecht and Gregg Phillips were, of course, ridiculed by the so-called mainstream press.

Then it got worse.

Engelbrecht and Phillips were actually jailed because they would not give up the name of their source, who had blown the whistle on Konnech.

The federal government didn’t seem to give a damn that a hostile foreign power might be able to influence our elections.

It did seem very intent on making sure no one knew about it.

Now, four years later, we can see that it was much, much worse than that.

According to John Solomon, at the time True the Vote was being silenced, the Intelligence Community had assessed the situation, recognized the risk, and issued a report outlining the danger we faced.

And that report and that assessment were hidden from the public, even as patriots trying to protect the republic were being persecuted and jailed.

THE PRESS IS FREE; THE MEDIA IS FOR SALE

Michael Smith April 29, 2026

The bulwark of a free, moral, civil society is a free press.

I want to make it clear that I believe there is a sharp, black line between the free press and “media,” and that distinction between a constitutionally protected free press and modern “media” is not semantic but structural.

The First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution protects the act of publishing itself, not the quality, intent, or civic value of what is published. In that sense, the press is a function open to anyone, from the pamphleteers of the founding era like Thomas Paine to today’s institutional newsrooms.

What we now call “media” is an industry, and like any industry, it responds to incentives — chief among them attention, engagement, and revenue.

That shift has blurred the line between information and entertainment, producing content that often prioritizes emotional reaction over factual clarity or public utility.

The result is a system in which material designed to provoke or entertain is afforded the same constitutional protection as serious investigative reporting, despite serving a very different purpose.

THE HIGH DRAMA BIASES OF POLITICS

Joel Wade April 30, 2026

As this political season heats up, and all the arguments, indignation and accusations that go with it come to a rolling boil, I thought it would be worth having a look at some of the deeper biases that we all can get immersed in, regardless of ideology or political sentiments.

I write this, not because I think you should be apathetic about politics, or choose a particular side that I might like. I write this because the bombardment of manipulations we are subject to can cause us to lose focus on the meaningful details of our own lives; and the biases which politics are teeming with can throw off our judgment about what’s most important.

By politics, I mean the process by which we – politicians and media most strongly, but individuals as well – persuade, cajole, manipulate, trick, argue, deceive, and otherwise do everything we can to empower those we want to empower, and disempower those we want to disempower.

This is an equal opportunity inquiry. We all have our personal beliefs, and, regardless of what they are, every single one of us gets seduced by our biases.

FLASHBACK FRIDAY: THE FAIRY TALE CASTLE OF SEGOVIA

Dr. Jack Wheeler May 1, 2026

This is Spain’s most famous and beloved castle, high on a rocky promontory above the city of Segovia some 60 miles northwest of Madrid. The site of a Celtic settlement, Roman trading post, and Arab wooden fort, when the Reconquista of the Christian knights removed the Islamic invaders from their land in the early 1200s, the building of the idyllic fairy tale castle you see began.

For centuries it was the palace residence of the Kings and Queens of Castille. It was here, on December 13, 1474, that Isabella, daughter of King John II, was enthroned as the Queen of Castille. When her husband Ferdinand, whom she married in 1469, became King of Aragon in 1475, they jointly ruled a unified Spain. As we learned in our early school years, it was Ferdinand of Aragon and Isabella of Castille who sponsored Columbus’ discovery of the Americas in 1492.

Today, the Castle of Segovia is a World Heritage Site, serving as a museum of the history of Castille and National Archive of Spain. Immaculately preserved and maintained, it’s a thrilling experience to explore. (Glimpses of Our Breathtaking World #266 photo ©Jack Wheeler)

AMERICA AT MOUNT RUSHMORE

Dr. Jack Wheeler April 30, 2026

I took this photo of Mount Rushmore looking straight on from a helicopter – so it may be from an angle you have not seen before. This coming election in November and on Veterans Day (11/11), it may be worthwhile to think of these four heroic Americans from a different perspective, to reflect on the almost unimaginable -- in the light of our comfortable lives we live today – challenges they faced and triumphed over to create and sustain our America.

It is worth asking what would they say to us today, what advice and counsel would they give us on how to face and triumph over what unimaginable – to them during their lives – challenges of ours as Americans today.

Look into their eyes. What are they saying to you? Election week and Veterans Day is a time of deep reflection on the meaning of being American. (Glimpses of Our Breathtaking World #173 photo ©Jack Wheeler)

THE TREASURY OF PETRA

Dr. Jack Wheeler April 29, 2026

The 2,000 year-old Rose Red City of Petra was the religious center of an ancient Arab tribe named Nabataeans. They didn’t build huge temples such as this – they carved them out of cliffs of rose-red sandstone in their hidden mountain sanctuary east of the Dead Sea in present-day Jordan.

The most famous carved temple is called The Treasury (Al-Khazneh in Arabic), 128 feet high, hand-carved into the vertical rock face. You’ve seen it in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusades and other movies.

One interesting feature of Nabataean culture was the prominence of women. The two principal deities worshipped by them was the male god Dushara, god of the sun and sky whom the ancient Greeks associated with Zeus, and Al-Uzza, the goddess of fertility whom the Greeks associated with Aphrodite.

Al-Uzza was accompanied by Al-lat, the goddess of wisdom, and Manat, the goddess of destiny, as a triad devoutly worshipped by the Nabataeans and throughout all pre-Islamic Arabia. Together, they are the “forbidden goddesses” of Koranic Islam. Which is why their images, along with that of Dushara have been defaced and etched out of their carvings in the upper niches of The Treasury.

Experiencing Petra is on most people’s travel bucket list. Being here, it’s easy to see why. (Glimpses of Our Breathtaking World #292, photo ©Jack Wheeler)

MOROCCO’S DADES GORGE

Dr. Jack Wheeler April 28, 2026

This astounding road is how you traverse the Dades Gorge on the Road of a Thousand Kasbahs in Morocco. Kasbahs are fortified villages of the Berbers, who have lived here since the end of the Ice Ages 12,000 years ago (related to the Lapps of the Scandinavian Arctic, both descending from Cro-Magnon hunters in Cantabria of northern Spain).

The road is rated as one of the most scenic drives in the world. It is in the High Atlas Mountains (once higher than the Himalayas and joined to the Appalachians in the northeast US before splitting apart to form the Atlantic Ocean 200 million years ago). Here you go from the sand dunes of the Sahara to the fabulous kasbahs of Skoura, Ouarzazate, and Ait Benhaddou. The drive is one of the many life-memorable experiences we have in our exploration of Moroccan Magic. (Glimpses of Our Breathtaking World #110 photo ©Jack Wheeler)

HEAVEN ON HERM

Dr. Jack Wheeler April 27, 2026

Belvoir Beach, Herm, Channel Islands. Could there be a more idyllic lunch—grilled lobster, fresh garden salad, chilled Chardonnay – here on Herm, the smallest of the five main Channel Islands. There’s Jersey, Guernsey, Sark, Alderney – and tiny Herm. Less than one square mile, but overflowing with charm and hospitality – from the Victorian White House Hotel to the Mermaid Pub to lobsters at Belvoir Beach. Coming here is a true escape from the worries of the world. At Herm they are a long ways away. Glimpses of Our Breathtaking World #177 photo ©Jack Wheeler)
