Yup! “Obama had to leave thru the ASS of Air Force One” when China refused to roll the stairs to the plane… Trump is Welcomed as the most important Leader in the World! 😎 Now the TDS “Hate Trumpers” (both on the Left and the Right) dismiss this as “playing to Trump’s Massive Ego!!!” But, uh, where did that - cease - to be at the Heart of the Deal? If they didn’t have respect for Trump… well, they would have treated him like they treated the Puppet President and the DEI vote catcher! 😅😂🤣

Summary of Cynthia West interview

I put together 6 highlights from the interview the Massie "accuser" gave.

I put "accuser" in quotes because it's ultimately not even clear what she's accusing Massie of.

He is mere a witness in her ethics complaint for retaliatory dismissal after working for 6 weeks for Spartz before getting fired.

The entire situation is a total cluster-hit-piece.

West says she had a relationship with Massie.

That they took a political trip to South Africa.

That he got her a job in DC.

That she got fired after 6 weeks.

That before gettin fired, she broke up with Massie.

She claims Massie offered her $5,000 a undeclared "cow money" to silence her.

That she has been offered $60,000 as a settlement but won't accept because it requires her to sign an NDA (absolutely standard for settlements).

I have been going at it with the usual suspects of TWS sycophants - Shawn Farash,. Will Chamberlain, Misfit Patriot - on X.

It is really discouraging to see people being so dishonest, so intellectually...

Gorka has always been a piece of 💩 I wouldn’t be surprised if he actually worked for MI5/6. He’s certainly never been an AMERICAN patriot. The guy is a foreign asset as far as I’m concerned.

Trump basically confirmed the Left’s worst accusations of being a fascist and a dictator by letting his hound off his leash to attack those that disagree politically.

The Daily Briefer Barnes Brief: Tuesday, May 12, 2026
  • Art of the Day 
Jazz. Soulful, spiritual, and celebratory at the same time as the musucial, mastroes of innovation and improvisation take us some place deep, real, and hopeful at the same time. Freedom distilled in a trumpet’s note, a pianist's key, a bassist’s chord, uncovered in the mind, expressesd through the soul, manifested into sound. A most American creation.

I. THE INTRODUCTION
 
A. Art of the Week
  • Venezia. The Atlantis-like ancient city with its bridges over canals, long boats mastered by the gondolier, the city whose balls made masquarade masks famous, where artisans of show-making spend a whole day to make a single show of artistic wonderment, a hidden restaurant in a corner alley uncovers the best Italian cuisine, and the city whispers of its centuries of stories from its cathedrals and water-hugging mansions of Casanova’s fame.

D.  Best of the Board
 
III. THE CLOSING ARGUMENT: Constitution Masterclass -- The 30,000 Cap
 
  • Article I, Section 2, Clause 3 provides: “The Number of Representatives shall not exceed one for every thirty Thousand, but each State shall have at least one Representative.”  Interpretations clash: was this intended to impose a cap on the number of people a member of the House could represent, or the number of Representatives that could ever be in the House? Equally, who can enforce the rights of Section 2 as applied to Representatives?
  • Congress capped the number of representatives by the Permanent Apportionment Act of June 18, 1929, and has not changed it since. A 1941 federal law provided the means to assign seats after the Census. States contested this when it lost a seat after the 1990 census due to this cap.  The Supreme Court acknowledged this was not a question submitted exclusively to the Legislative branch as a “political question” beyond its jurisdiction to resolve. Thus, the question turns to the import and intent of the 30,000 rule — is it a cap on the number of representatives or is it a ceiling on the number of people represented?
  • The phraseology can be read either way — that the restaint is on the “number of” Representatives in a ratio to the population rather than the population size represented by the District; or that the ratio intends a cap on the number of people represented by each representative. Linguistically, the former argument holds more sway; historically and philosophically, the latter argument proffers more persuasive evidence.
  • If we see it as sufficiently ambigious to turn to the Constitutional record, we find that the ratio of the house to the population was intended to be close to the people at a size no more than 30,000 people, reflected in the papers of the Founding Fathers themselves.
  • Indeed, the controversy over this language almost sunk the Constitution itself, despite the supporters arguing in Federalist Papers throughout that this was a minimum of people to be represented not merely a cap on the number of representatives in the House. So much so, that the very first amendment ever proposed was to clarify this point: that the minimum number of representatives must be proportional to the population in a strict ratio. Due to an editing error as passed by Congress, the amendment never passed, though mostly it faded as the Founding generation protected the intended ratio in fact.
  • The best plaintiff to seek such a relief would likely be a state without representation due to the absence of this maximum number of people per representative, given the prior case-law on the subject, or, of course, Congress itself could remedy the problem all by itself.

  • Art of the Day
Something majestic of a colorful Oriole in flight, the feeling of freedom in the outstretched wings to soar in the sky, beyond gravity and above the landed earth, ready to roam and reign while seeking a safe and strong landing place for a bit of a rest.
