Dusty Smith!

Potentate of Logic

Don’t be fooled: There is no censorship of the political Right in the USA. Let me reiterate: though the American, ultra-conservatives have a militant faction that engages in property damage and the inadvertent death of cops, the military industrial complex would rather have White, Right wing militias to contend with than hordes of multi-racial, Leftists conducting a revolution. Fuck yeah, that’s true! The so-called, “Deep State” knows that Neo-Fascists have a low aptitude because the counter-revolutionary Right has brain-washed their followers against the Left wing intelligentsia. Those type of domestic enemies, are pushovers for the corporate police state. The red neck, rude buffoons, with their AR15s fully loaded, haven’t got a chance in goofy-land to overthrow the government and its arsenal of nuclear bombs! Common sense is hardly sufficient! If you think the U.S. Marines are part of a Jewish cabal of globalists, then you have no hope of victory. So, when the ‘Original Gangsters of Cancel Culture and Censorship’ cry sweet tears of McCarthyite regrets, and amplify their wailing and gnashing of teeth about how they are being censored, just put a boot up their ass and tell them to go home to mama!

There are shit loads of pod-casters on YouTube and other social media platforms. Most them are Right wing grifters and mercenaries, chasing after fame and fortune. Some are Millennial amateurs that want to be the next John Wayne. A lot of them have personality disorders. These disorders range from A.D.H.D to Narcissistic Personality Disorder. Kanye West, the has-been Rapper, has Bi-polar Disorder. Astoundingly, you can actually garner a salary from some Right wing think tanks as a spokesperson for these people. Like Charlie Kirk does.

As for Left wing pod-casters, there are a handful of them; they can be counted on your fingers. Some who lean toward the Liberal and Progressive direction have made a go of it. David Pakman and Kyle Kulinsky are two. Then there is Vaush , the pseudo-intellectual, Libertarian-Socialist. Also, there’s the “Amazing Atheist,” T.J. Kirk.

However. What about the Lumped-proletarian? The pauper with a Southern accent? You know—the authentic human being? A political Charles Bukowski. A dude that has had his run-ins with drinking, getting stoned, and running a porn site. A social fuck up, if you will! Well, that man lives modestly in a small, Mississippi town; the only White man in a Black neighborhood. He is Dusty Smith, overlooked giant of YouTube pod-casting! Creator and producer of “The Dusty Smith Show,” it is apparent that Dusty spends countless hours preparing for each and every podcast. Initially, he appears a bit rough around the edges, but it doesn’t take long to see that he is a sensitive, passionate, intelligent, and empathetic human being. He will yell with conviction at the reactionary creeps whose Internet posts he exposes, until his face is beet red. He will cry heartfelt tears while playing a video that features a victim of unbridled police brutality and cruelty. He will joke like the great comedians of yesterdays past. He will chastise and correct himself whenever something goes amiss during his show—video won’t play; voice is out of sync. Oh, Dusty curses like a longshoreman in some foggy harbor; he comes from working class roots. But that is part of his charm. He is an open book, sharing big and small life events. He provides helpful, Internet links to useful programs and creative websites. Dusty is a creative songwriter, as well, and posts his recordings on Sound Cloud, for free download. All in all, he presents his show with deep conviction, profound insight, razor-sharp logic, and humble generosity.

Also highly noteworthy about Dusty is that he rescues dogs and cats from death row, and houses them in his self-run, animal sanctuary for as long as they need a home. Some of his cats hang around and lie next to him during his podcast, and can be seen on camera. His primary source of revenue is from the tips and Super Chats contributed during his YouTube podcast, donations from Patreon members, and gifts sent via US mail directly to his P.O. box.

So, how does this king of the Anti-Authoritarian Left get treated by YouTube? Like a turd in a punch bowl!

My wife and I think very highly of him. We two Baby Boomers are strong supporters of this Gen Xer, and we catch his podcast, “The Dusty Smith Show,” live every Monday and Friday night at 9 EST. Its duration is typically two or more hours, sometimes three; if we don’t stay for the entire show, we catch the rest of it, on video, the next day or so. I love it when he makes fun of Right Wing pod-casters and Evangelical hate preachers! Were it not for Dusty’s informative and well-produced show, I would be largely unaware of the vast amount of Right-leaning garbage circulating Online.

At any rate, Social Media is trying to purify all Left wing content and Dusty is on their shit list—as am I. But Dusty has way more followers than I do, so his show being banned hits him especially hard. YouTube recently banned it for two months! Not the first time and, probably, it won’t be the last. In the meantime, he is podcasting his show live on Patreon, same schedule. Sign up to watch and support him!

Ever since Elon Musk took it over, Twitter has become a Right wing ghetto, devoid of any intelligence or logic. They suspended me twice.

Social Media is starting with the hard core Left. Once they succeed in purging them, it’s on to the Socialists and Communists. After that, it will be the Progressives, Democratic Socialists, Liberals, and, then moderate Democrats. However, it won’t stop there. They will go after Black conservatives and Jewish conservatives. Conservative women will be demoted to Christian motherhood. I don’t care if you don’t believe me. It will happen.

Dusty Smith and other Comrades must be protected and supported. I said this once and I’ll say it again: We need our own platform! Free speech is idealistic, but at this time in history, it is not practical. Elon Musk does not care about free speech. That is, with the exception for his Right wing buddies. He really, only cares about money and ego aggrandizement. No rich man is going to hand us a web site where we can freely express our opinions. Until we all realize that capitalism is not going to trickle down to us, we need a peoples’ site that is a true, public square, full of soap boxes for us to stand upon. But, the rich pig and his Conservative, Libertarian, and Evangelical flunkies only want their side of the story heard. The so-called Left does not have wealthy sugar daddies to finance us. George Soros? Well, he may have died of natural causes by the time you read this. Like all classical Leftists, we have no money. That is why we robbed banks for the Revolution!

Dusty may be off of YouTube this time around—but he will rise again!

House Republicans adopted a sweeping rules package Monday night, despite frustrations within the conference over private agreements GOP leadership made with the 20 conservatives.

Only one House Republican, Rep. Tony Gonzales of Texas, voted against the rules package released by Speaker Kevin McCarthy — a victory that allows the new House majority to officially begin organizing after a nearly week-long delay.

And it’s the kind of political win that McCarthy and his allies sorely needed after the messy roller-coaster of the past week. House Republicans have worked to pull themselves together this week, teeing up their first major legislative vote on a bill that would repeal the funding for 87,000 new IRS agents while also settling a handful of contested committee gavels. The party will name the final panel head, over the House Budget Committee, later Monday night.

GOP lawmakers were keen to move on from last week’s theatrics, which culminated in a 2 a.m. Speaker vote on Saturday morning. But it was clear the tensions hadn’t yet entirely faded.

Rep. Mike Rogers (R-Ala.), a member of the GOP’s steering committee, had stunned his colleagues by announcing he would step down from the panel after his confrontation on the floor Friday night with conservative rabble-rouser Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.). But by mid-afternoon Monday, Rogers — who also chairs the House Armed Services Committee — had reversed course, telling POLITICO that both party leaders and rank-and-file members had urged him to stay on the panel and he planned to remain for the rest of the term.

Rogers’ switch is the latest glimpse at the dishevelment that continued to consume the House GOP even after the chamber elected McCarthy as Speaker in Saturday’s early hours.

And allies of McCarthy also sought to make the case that the plan they established was one the party could get behind, even if some openly voiced opposition to lowering the threshold so only one member of either party could move to depose the Speaker.

“This is a good rules package. Given the excitement of last week, members have had questions, but the comfort level has increased and we are in a good spot,” Rep. Dusty Johnson (R-S.D.), chair of the Republican Main Street Caucus, said before the vote.

The vote on the rules package marked McCarthy’s first legislative challenge, but proved he was capable of holding his divided conference together as Republicans worked to adopt a resolution that would govern how the House operates for the next two years. The package included basic rules on decorum and legislative action, but changes to the agreement became key bargaining chips as McCarthy worked to flip his conservative opponents last week.

Some of the concern was centered over defense spending. Gonzales had said he would vote against the package in part because of potential ramifications to national security spending. It was a major concern roiling the GOP, though it’s not formally enshrined in the rules package. Defense hawks fear that McCarthy’s commitment to balancing the budget within a decade — which will require holding down spending levels to the fiscal year 2022 levels or lower — will cannibalize the Pentagon’s budget.

And Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) had said she wanted more details on what handshake deals McCarthy made with his doubters last week that aren’t in the official text, but her office on Monday confirmed she would support it.

The roughly 55 pages of proposed rules are highly procedural, yet critical to the inner workings of the House. The measure will govern how party leaders bring bills to the floor and how to ensure transparency for rank-and-file lawmakers. One of the biggest focuses for Republicans has been over a motion to depose the Speaker — the same tool that conservatives effectively used to topple former Speaker John Boehner in 2015.

As part of his Speaker tradeoffs, McCarthy agreed to make it easier for members to attempt to oust him — empowering just a single lawmaker to force such a vote. And his allies worry it could be a serious threat to McCarthy as his conference takes power this year with one of the slimmest margins in House history.

Meanwhile, Republicans were also selecting contested committee heads Monday. In the most high-profile gavel race of the new majority, Rep. Jason Smith (R-Mo.) has emerged as the conference’s pick to lead the powerful Ways and Means Committee.

Smith first arrived in Washington back in 2013 and was the top Republican on the House Budget Committee last Congress. He bested Vern Buchanan (R-Fla.) on the second ballot after Rep. Adrian Smith (R-Neb.) dropped out following the first round of conference voting.

And in another closely watched chairmanship battle, Republicans picked Rep. Mark Green (R-Tenn.), a conservative Freedom Caucus member, over Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-Texas) to lead the Homeland Security Committee.

Green, who first came to Congress in 2019, said he would place some staff members permanently on the southern border in part to provide “real-time updates” from Customs and Border Protection.

Contenders for those gavels made their pitches during a lengthy meeting of the House Republican Steering Committee, a group with representation across the conference that chooses panel leadership posts.

Shirecorn's Ponyverse Masterpost

So for the last 2 months I've fixated on doing redesigns based somewhat loosely on My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. I've had so much fun filling in the gaps and extrapolating until my version is less of a redesign and more of an AU.

"Ponies" are three species of sentient hoofed creatures that populate Equestria. They worship giant goddesses that fill the sky and ferry the moon and sun across the world.
