RIDE THE COMCAST RECURSION: Guess Who Donated to the White House Ballroom Project? The Left Is Gonna Flip!

The donor list the White House released is packed with names you’d never expect to see supporting a Trump initiative: Amazon, Apple, Google, Microsoft, Meta, and—wait for it—Comcast. Yes, that Comcast. The parent company of MSNBC, NBCNews, and CNBC—the same outlets currently panicking about “Trump’s destructive vanity project”—is literally helping fund the thing they’re denouncing on air. You can’t make this up. The same talking heads wailing that Trump is “desecrating history” are doing it under the financial umbrella of one of his donors.

UH OH — @MSNBC @NBCNews @CNBC

It looks like your parent company is helping to "DESTROY" the White House!!

Below is a list of donors who contributed to the new Big Beautiful Ballroom. 🤣 pic.twitter.com/Fxp3LhKNM0

Other contributors include Lockheed Martin, Caterpillar, Coinbase, Palantir, and a handful of individual donors. Big Tech companies, which are typically anti-Trump bastions of leftist virtue, are suddenly writing checks for his ballroom. Maybe those boardroom politics aren’t quite as ideological as they claim.

In the end, this ballroom isn’t about vanity; it’s about practicality. Trump is reshaping the White House the way he’s reshaped Washington—unapologetically, efficiently, and to the absolute horror of his critics. And the funniest part? His loudest detractors are, quite literally, paying for the walls that will echo with the next round of state dinner applause.

Why, it’s as if: No One Is Tearing Down the Trump Ballroom. “Spoiler alert: It will stand. Indeed, the next Democratic president will make extensive use of the ballroom without apology, if only because it is of immense and objective practical utility.”

MEDIA OUTLETS THAT REJECTED TRUMP PENTAGON GUIDELINES ACCEDED TO OBAMA-ERA CENSORSHIP AT GITMO:

THE POWER LINE WEEK IN PICTURES: Demolition Edition.

THE CRITICAL DRINKER: Disney Killed The Kylo Ren Movie (And That’s A Good Thing).

In his video, the Drinker mentions a recent Forbes article on the economics of Disney’s Star Wars: Revealed: The Star Wars Movie With The Highest Profits:

2019’s The Rise Of Skywalker only had a 9.9% ROI as its costs came to an eyewatering $593.7 million (£450.2 million) as this report recently revealed.

It was the second most-expensive of Disney’s Star Wars movies after 2015’s The Force Awakens, the first in its new trilogy of films. The Force Awakens teamed up rising stars Daisy Ridley and John Boyega with Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford and the late Carrie Fisher who headlined the original movies more than 30 years earlier.

With costs of $638.9 million (£452 million), The Force Awakens is comfortably Disney’s most expensive Star Wars movie and one of the most expensive films in history. Remarkably it is also one of the most profitable. This is no mean feat.

I saw Sam Mendes’ 1917 and The Rise of Skywalker on Christmas and Box Day respectively during a holiday stay in Dallas in 2019. My review of the latter at the time is much more positive in retrospect than I actually remember the movie being nearly six years on, these days I think of the movie as basically and extended Industrial Light & Magic demo reel. But in any case, like everybody else at the time, I had no idea that what I took for granted — going to the movie theater on a regular basis to see the latest zillion dollar blockbusters from Hollywood — would cease to exist for two years. In June of 2022, I was glad Top Gun: Maverick was just good enough to make it a fun afternoon at the movie theater. Today, I wonder how many more of those there will be.

NELLIE BOWLES: My Little Totenkopf.

Graham Platner, the Maine Democrat challenging Susan Collins for her Senate seat, found himself in some trouble this week because of an old tattoo. A tramp stamp? An ex’s name on his bicep? No, it was a large totenkopf on his chest, the Nazi skull symbol worn by guards at concentration camps. Platner claims that he picked the symbol at random from the tattoo parlor’s wall with his Marine buddies (I hate when that happens!) and had no idea that there were any Nazi implications. Which is funny because according to an old acquaintance of his, there was nothing random or secret about it at all, and he would call it his totenkopf: “He said, ‘Oh, this is my totenkopf,’ ” the acquaintance told Jewish Insider. “He said it in a cutesy little way.” Platner, who described himself as “a communist” and an “antifa supersoldier” back in his old Reddit posting days, also apparently spent time in “a socialist paramilitary group.”

The best part is that the left has now painted itself into a corner with Nazi iconography, because they can no longer quite articulate why it’s bad, since killing Jews is neutral to admirable. Here’s a popular leftist commentator trying to explain why Platner’s Nazi symbol is bad:

“This isn’t just a Nazi tattoo, this is the symbol of the concentration camp guards, the guys who ran the death camps. The men who murdered socialists, communists, and liberals. They mass-murdered all black men in the French army. This is on par with a swastika.” (The commentator deleted it so I won’t name and shame. But isn’t it interesting?)

Perhaps that explains why at least one poll believes the severity of Platner’s “My Little Totenkopf” can by dismissed away as merely an “anti-Israel tattoo:”

DISPATCHES FROM THE ICE FLOE: Police Report Reveals Democrat DC Congressional Delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton Has “Early Stages of Dementia.”

A new police report reveals Democrat DC Congressional Delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton has “early stages of dementia.”

Eleanor Holmes Norton, 88, is a nonvoting congressional representative for DC. She has represented DC since 1991.

According to two police reports obtained by NBC Washington, Eleanor Holmes Norton was scammed by people claiming to be duct and fireplace cleaners.

The thieves posing as HVAC workers entered Holmes Norton’s home, accessed her credit cards and charged her $4,400 for work they did not do.

The police report described Eleanor Holmes Norton as having dementia. It also revealed that her caretaker has power of attorney.

“Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton (DC) 88 years old, Black Woman, suffers early stages of dementia,” the police report said.

A spokeswoman for Eleanor Holmes Norton pushed back on the claims in the police report.

Flashback: The Democratic Party’s Ice Floe Politics. “The next time a Democratic politician makes an anonymous observation about the age or vigor of a colleague with whom they disagree, be skeptical. The remarks are made to reporters as if in sorrow, but the message is about as subtle as a shiv in the prison yard.”

UNEXPECTEDLY! Maine Democrat With Nazi Tattoo Also Made Homophobic Social Media Posts, Report Finds.

“The unearthed posts show a pattern of homophobic language and rhetoric that mocked or demeaned LGBTQ+ people,” the Advocate reported Wednesday. “In some cases, Platner appeared to use slurs casually in discussions unrelated to sexuality; in others, he explicitly framed gay people as the punch line.”

In 2021, Platner posted, “I like how our gay antics make him so uncomfortable he hates us. I’m doubling down on gay chicken next time in honor of this Air Force pussy.” A year earlier, he wrote, “This was the gayest (not in the fun dick sucking way) thing I’ve ever seen. This dude is literally everything I hate all rolled into one.” In other posts, he taunted users to “back it up with facts, fags,” and mocked military officers as “gay.”

Platner confirmed and apologized to the Advocate for what he now calls his “indefensible” anti-gay remarks, which he posted between 2016 and 2021. “I made a lot of comments over the years and talked a lot of shit on the internet,” Platner told the LGBT news site in an interview. “I stopped using that specific kind of language a while ago … and today I find that stuff abhorrent. And I am sorry that I ever used it.”

At Hot Air, John Sexton, quoting from Jewish Insider and CNN’s Andrew Kaczynski goes out on a limb: Platner Knew About the Nazi Tattoo.

I don’t think he’s a secret Nazi. I do think he’s a liar who made up a story about not knowing what this was because it was easier than trying to explain himself to a bunch of left-wing partisans who were already headed for the fainting couch over his previous comments.

Even MSNBC is having a hard time supporting him.

Bottom line: Even if one accepts Platner’s apologies for his past behavior, believes his account of when he learned about the meaning of his tattoo, and thinks that he may have evolved from his past errors, it’s clear that he has a questionable track record. There are legitimate reasons to be suspicious of how deeply held his current progressive beliefs are, and how disciplined he would be as a politician.

He’s a confirmed liar as of this week, not four years ago. I guess we’ll see if that matters to Maine voters.

MSNBC may be distancing themselves from Platner, but Vox founder Matt Yglesias is “ride or die” for the man with the Totenkopf:

At least, he says he is:

Perhaps Yglesias wants “a fiesty left-populist outsider” after the way the WaPo profiled him a couple of years ago as a boring old establishment leftist: “The boring journey of Matt Yglesias:”

“I don’t always agree with Matt, but he always makes you think with his unique and sharp insights,” says Ron Klain, the White House chief of staff, via email. Klain has liked and shared multiple Yglesias tweets, usually ones that praise White House actions in defiance of wailing liberals or henpecking conservatives. Yglesias, Klain adds, “offers ‘unconventional wisdom:’ He’s not afraid to break with others and put his views out there — a perspective that is hard to find in a dialogue dominated by conventional wisdom.”

* * * * * * * *

But enough serious people take Yglesias seriously to negate the many people who don’t. His Substack was tied for most-followed newsletter by members of the Biden transition team, according to digital strategist Rob Blackie, and Yglesias himself was No. 4 on the list of most-followed journalists. Some of Yglesias’s posts on policy — particularly one on Build Back Better negotiations in February — have reportedly circulated among White House staff.

“There’s a broad sense that he’s a public intellectual, and they take his ideas like they’ll take other ideas,” says a White House official who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss outside influences on the administration. “He’s not super influential, but he’s a prominent normie liberal, just like Joe Biden is a normie liberal.”

Or perhaps he just likes the look of Platner in a Hugo Boss suit:

AWS OUTAGE REMINDS US WHY $2,449 INTERNET-DEPENDENT BEDS ARE A BAD IDEA:

[T]he AWS outage caused smart mattress covers from Eight Sleep to malfunction. These “Pod” mattress covers connect to a physical hub, and users can set the covers to temperatures between 55° and 110° Fahrenheit via a companion app. Eight Sleep also sells smart mattress bases that let people control their bed’s elevation with the app. As of this writing, the Pods’ MSRPs range from $2,449 to $3,249, and the base has a $1,950 MSRP. Eight Sleep also sells its Autopilot feature through an annual subscription that starts at $199. Autopilot is supposed to help automatically set Eight Sleep devices to users’ optimal sleeping conditions. Pod purchases require a one-year subscription to Autopilot.

Pods have on-device buttons for controlling the temperature without a phone, but the devices require an Internet connection for the adjustments to work. That limitation led to disturbing wake-up calls during the AWS outage as Eight Sleep smart beds became uncontrollable.

As one user on Reddit said:

I woke up too hot in the middle of the night last night and kept double-tapping like a maniac to adjust the temp[erature] down since I wasn’t getting any haptic feedback. I only found out why after I got up in the morning.

It would be somewhat understandable that Autopilot stops working because Eight Sleep’s backend is down but not being able to even adjust the temperature locally is ridiculous and completely unacceptable for such a high-end (and expensive) product.

A person on X wrote: “Would be great if my bed wasn’t stuck in an inclined position due to an AWS outage. Cmon now.”

I do not trust the Internet of things, to coin an Instaphrase.

HOW IT STARTED: Rivals Attack Dean for Wooing ‘Guys With Confederate Flags.’

Howard Dean’s rivals for the Democratic nomination roundly attacked him on Saturday for telling an Iowa newspaper he wanted ”to be the candidate for guys with Confederate flags in their pickup trucks” in defending his opposition to some gun control legislation.

—The New York Times, November 2^nd, 2003.

How it’s going: How ‘Big Tent’ Are Democrats Willing to Go? Many in the party say it needs a wider range of candidates to run. Does that include people with Nazi tattoos?

—The Atlantic, today.

Platner has received extensive criticism for the revelations. The podcaster and writer Wajahat Ali wrote, “It’s time to drop Platner.” The Wall Street Journal published an editorial with the headline, “Oops, I’ve Had a Nazi Tattoo for 18 Years.” Zach Schwartz, the director of the Jewish Community Relations Council of the Jewish Community Alliance of Southern Maine, denounced Platner’s tattoo, along with his refusal to take donations from the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, which Schwartz said “plays into familiar, harmful tropes that Jews or organizations like AIPAC control the government.” Jordan Wood, another candidate in the Maine race, said, “Graham Platner’s Reddit comments and Nazi SS Totenkopf tattoo are disqualifying and not who we are as Mainers or as Democrats.” Republican incumbent Susan Collins, said last week that she was “appalled” by what he had written online. “These were not comments that he made when he was in high school,” she said. “These are comments that he has made quite recently.”

But for now, at least, the Democratic party is not calling on Platner to step down. Ken Martin, the head of the DNC, said that Platner’s online comments were “hurtful” but not “disqualifying,” and that the choice is up to primary voters. Senator Ruben Gallego of Arizona, who is neutral in the race, said, “Everyone has a right to grow and grow out of their stupidity.” Senator Martin Heinrich of New Mexico said, “Graham has made a lot of mistakes in his life. He’s had a very long journey to the place where he is today, but he’s owned those mistakes, owned up to them, and he’s evolved.” Khanna called the tattoo “horrendous,” but said: “Do we want our political governing class to be like the classmates I had at Yale Law School, some of them who dreamed of being president of the United States from the age of twelve?” He continued, “Or do we want normal people also having a chance at these offices?”

Wait, do Democrats actually believe that “normal people” get Nazi skull tattoos? Has Mitchell and Webb’s viral “Are we the baddies?” sketch not crossed over to the other side of the aisle, yet?

I would assume choosing to run for the Senate isn’t a spur of the moment decision; it’s something carefully appraised and planned before the initial public announcement is made. “Readers, I just want you to ask yourself, if you realized you had accidentally gotten a tattoo that was the symbol of the Nazi SS… how many speed limit laws would you break on the way to the tattoo removal service, and/or a tattoo artist to cover it up? How long would you want a mark of the Nazis on your skin? Would getting that tattoo removed be something you’d jot on your to-do list, and get around to doing at your leisure? Or would it be something you’d want to take care of immediately? You know, when you’re running for a U.S. Senate seat?”

It’s a bold strategy, Cotton. Let’s see if it pays off for him:

Gavin Newsom wrote in a Monday post to X that Trump is “ripping apart the White House just like he’s ripping apart the Constitution.”

ARMOND WHITE: Springsteen’s Self-Mythologizing Home Movie.

As portrayed by perpetual sad sack Jeremy Allen White, curly-haired Bruce labors at a small-town bar, mostly appreciated by lumpenprole clientele and pathetic, clingy, single-mother Fay (Odessa Young). That’s the “Nowhere” from which Bruce longs to be delivered. Escapism drives his professional pursuit that turns uncommercial and derivative. A reckless road trip suggests that he wanted to imitate both Bob Dylan’s storied motorcycle accident and his John Wesley Harding neo-folk album.

Hollywood hack Scott Cooper buys into this myth, undeniably using the shame and dissatisfaction perpetuated by Democrat Party figures Springsteen and Obama. Cooper’s direction and script foolishly erect this myth based on fatuous press-release fiction that Nebraska was inspired by Bruce accidentally catching a TV broadcast of Terrence Malick’s Badlands (a high-art digression from historic tabloid tragedy). We’re meant to accept Bruce’s idiotic approach heroizing serial killer Charles Starkweather as his protagonist — as if Bruce found the secret to all-American failure and misery.

Aiming at our credulousness, Deliver Me repeats the familiar legend that Nebraska was created when Bruce broke away from his E Street Band to compose and perform alone, in his bedroom, to a simple 4-track recorder (lyrics scratched on a notebook next to well-worn pages of Flannery O’Connor’s “A Good Man Is Hard to Find”).

What’s left out is the music industry’s manufacturing of Springsteen’s image. His manager Jon Landau (Jeremy Strong) gets the film’s big scene telling off a Columbia Records executive: “In this office, in my office, we believe in Bruce Springsteen!” This BS shamelessly begs for applause.

Do they obey the laws of thermodynamics as well?

Related: Christian Toto speculates: Boss Bomb? Deliver Me from Nowhere’s Sad Tracking.

Springsteen’s hard-left politics have been chipping away at his brand in recent years. His shocking defense of sky-high ticket prices shredded his blue-collar image. And his chronic attacks on President Donald Trump, while ignoring the serial miscues of his predecessor, likely chased some potential movie goers away.

Springsteen exists in the rarefied air of rock gods. Plus, Hollywood loves cranking out music biopics, witness potential films based on Debbie Harry and Joni Mitchell.

A Springsteen movie should be a must-see event, even one that doesn’t rock the Oscar conversation.

Instead, the film could be out of theaters by Thanksgiving based on current tracking models.

The jury is still out on that, but as “Miami” Steve Van Zandt told the London Times last year, “‘When Bruce got vocal behind the Democrats, we probably lost half the audience. There’s nowhere we can’t do business.’ But some places feel like enemy territory now? ‘A little bit, yeah. We’re ten times bigger in Europe. We might play six stadiums in America and sixty in Europe.’”

Classical allusion in headline:

ANDREW DOYLE: Meltdown at the Oxford Union.

Harold Macmillan once described the Oxford Union as ‘the last bastion of free speech’. Perhaps this remark made sense when it was uttered back in the 1960s, but it reads today more like a mordant quip. The recent furore over George Abaraonye, the president elect, has all but obliterated the union’s credibility.

Everything we know about Abaraonye tells us that he is profoundly unqualified to lead such an institution. He openly celebrated the shooting of Charlie Kirk, posting on his Instagram account: ‘Charlie Kirk got shot loool’. In a WhatsApp group, he wrote: ‘Charlie Kirk got shot, let’s fucking go’, ‘Scoreboard FM’ and ‘It really writes itself, doesn’t it’ in response to a fellow student’s comment that ‘He was pro guns LMFAO’. This was in spite of the fact that Abaraonye had met Kirk in person only a few months previously, shaken his hand, and debated him in the chamber.

Such musteline behaviour tells us that this is not a man of strong character, but more objectionable still are his attempts at back-pedalling. Abaraonye might at least have acknowledged that it was a hot-headed moment in which he was childishly attempting to be edgy for his friends. But unable to muster the courage to take responsibility for his own words, he instead attempted to blame the victim, saying that his reaction was ‘shaped by the context of Mr Kirk’s own rhetoric’ and ‘My words were no less insensitive than his – arguably less so’.

More here: The Oxford Union won’t miss George Abaraonye. “When Abaraonye debated Kirk, Kirk had been civil with him. Abaraonye had perhaps been less so with Kirk. He showed up in sweatpants and slippers, tetchily engaged with his opponent, before sauntering away from the exchange while yawning. That his fellow students could have watched this display and still voted for him as union president a month later is baffling. The Oxford Union will survive this controversy, just as it has survived countless others. What will be harder to recover is its reputation as a training ground for bright young minds, rather than a platform for mean-spirited provocateurs.”

AMERICA’S PROGRESSIVE DESCENT INTO PSYCHOSIS:

If you missed it, the woman who thought it was a good and persuasive idea to show up in an inflatable penis costume outside of an upscale shopping mall on a sunny Saturday, where families were out enjoying the weather, is… 61 years old.

(RELATED: Please Deliver Us From the Poorly-Behaved Women)

Not some stupid college kid. A 61-year-old woman.

A friend of mine whose son was on the scene relates that Gamble was in the street screaming obscenities at passing cars, and even jumped in front of one driven by a brand new driver who nearly hit her, before she was arrested.

Because her candidate didn’t win an election.

And the video of the arrest has gone viral because the screeching coven of progressive hysterics across the country has decided that this is a First Amendment violation of some kind — that the right to protest involves dressing oneself up as a specimen of male genitalia in front of unsuspecting citizens.

Bear in mind, these are the people who wanted to lock you up and take your kids away for not wearing a face diaper or forcing your family to take a COVID shot, but somehow they’re the defenders of the First Amendment now.

Yes, this is an extreme case.

But it’s not an isolated case.

MSNBC put the demented Robert De Niro on their air so that he could declare that White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller was a Nazi, and DeNiro then allowed that such a status would be unusual given that Miller is Jewish. Nobody at that network batted an eye. Maybe Miller’s inevitable lawsuit will change that, but the inherent psychosis is no less substantive.

And this week, we’re seeing a large number of these people come completely unglued over Trump’s having broken ground on construction of a new ballroom facility at the White House, which will expand its capacity for hosting events to 650 people, up from the current 200. The project is being financed with $250 million in private donations, and it will improve a part of the White House’s East Wing, which has stood mostly useless since the Truman administration.

And right on cue, here’s Clinton advisor James Carville using language that could get people killed – and already has: Carville Fantasizes About Trump ‘Collaborators’ Paraded In The Streets Like Post-War Nazis.

ABC NEWS JOURNALIST THREATENS POLICE: The View’s Sunny Hostin Warned Local Police Not To Target Black Son in Her ‘All-White Neighborhood.’

According to Sunny Hostin, she recently made a visit to her local police department to warn officers not to target her son because he’s black.

No, this isn’t satire.

While discussing the new Netflix documentary “The Perfect Neighbor” on The View, Hostin said the show reminded her of herself as a black mother.

“As a mother of black children, I know that black boys are not given the presumption of innocence and the presumption of youth,” she said. “She’s calling the police and saying they’re trying to steal her car and they’re 11 years old. They don’t know how to drive.”

“I have had to be in the position where I have gone to my local police department because I know my son is going to be training for the Junior Olympics, running around the neighborhood in an all-white neighborhood,” she continued.

“I have brought him to the police and said, ‘He belongs to me. This is my son. Do not harass him. Do not stop him.’”

Oh.

Hostin did not say how the police responded to her warning. We can only imagine.

To be clear, Hostin never said the police had racially targeted her black son in her white neighborhood. She was simply warning them in case they had any ideas.

The Daily Caller notes that “Hostin has repeatedly accused Republicans of being racist against black and Hispanic people,” but the city of Houston’s last Republican mayor left office in 1982. Why is Sunny Hostin assuming her fellow Democrats are crypto-racists?

BIDEN SPEECHWRITER SAYS WHAT? Jon Meacham Suggests ‘Infantile’ Trump’s Ballroom Moves A Cause for ‘Revolution.’

On today’s Morning Joe, panel regular and former Biden speechwriter Meacham began by warning the panel, and liberals at large, “Let’s not bang on our high chairs here,” i.e., let’s not overreact to Trump’s ballroom moves.

But, ignoring his own advice, Meacham proceeded not merely to bang on his high chair, but to do the rhetorical equivalent of filling his Pampers.

“You’re not a king. You can’t just do what you want to do when you want to do it. That’s an adolescent response. That’s really not fair to adolescents, right? That’s infantile. Just to do it because you can is in some ways a definition of why we had the American Revolution.”

So Meacham’s having his own “No Kings” rally speech on MSNBC.

In saying that Trump has decided to “do it because [he] can,” Meacham acknowledged that the president is acting within his lawful powers. The American Revolution occurred because the colonists had no say or representation in the English King’s decisions. Here, Americans had representation, and they used it to elect Donald Trump president — twice.

Note that the DNC-MSM had a much calmer reaction when their man made some expensive updates to the White House:
