Truth Counts

State of the Union:  Live Blogging Tammy and Blackfoot will begin live blogging shortly.  Grab your favorite drink and your BINGO cards and get ready to settle in for two hours of our POTUS speaking at SOTU.  We hope to keep this fun! https://opinionbytammy.blogspot.com/2026/02/state-of-union-bingo-cards.html __________________ Here we go, gang! "Gang" in the friendly family way, not in the Tren de Aragua way. President Trump and Mrs. Trump have left the White House and are on their way to the Capitol. I'm sure these past few days have been chock full of leafing through journals and diaries, and holding meetings with the inner circle for messaging strategies. Regardless of how much input his team gives him, we can always rely on our POTUS to not mince words, to lay the facts on the table and give us straight talk. Recently saw Newsom talking about Trump being an actor, and that he's a different person in different situations. Once again, Gavin is projecting his weakne...

 

Women's Olympic Gold:  Feet of Clay The demographic for the women's U.S. Olympic Hockey team is made up of sixteen players from the PWHL  (Professional Women's Hockey League)  and seven NCAA athletes.  They represent a broad national footprint stretching from Minnesota to Wisconsin, Massachusetts to Ohio, and beyond. But they also present as Terry Prachett's novel,  "Feet of Clay".  They may wear the gold, but they are creatures of clay forced to obey the imprinted instructions in their head: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feet_of_Clay_(novel) Slaves.  They are little clay slaves.  Because I find it very hard to believe that not one of these adults will break free... demand her right to freedom of expression... and take her place at the SOTU Address seated on the same aisle as our First Lady. Do not call them feminists.  They are the ultimate antithesis of what women fought for in prior generations.   It is an unhealthy sisterho...

Commander in Chief in the Time of Jihad  Prior post here: https://opinionbytammy.blogspot.com/2026/02/commander-in-chief-grand-ayatollah.html Tehran prepares for an attack: "And prepare for them what you are able of force and war horses."  Qur'an 8:60 "Train horses for war, for surely their mounts are power for you, and their bellies are a treasure for you." Tehran will examine their modern war horses -  their missile stockpiles - and they will determine what is the nature of the belly of each beast. "Go out (to war) light and heavy and fight with your wealth and yourselves in the way of Allah."  9:41 The regular standing military and the Basij (or reserve component) are already on stop loss orders and on standby.  The wealth of the Diwan will be moving through different channels and nations to determine outcomes far beyond the boundaries of the Shi'a state. Rallying cries and activation to battle stations will consist of SIGINT for which we may la...

Massacre on the Streets of Mexico El Mencho is Deceased https://x.com/jorgebarrivivas/status/2025699558387306557 Ignore the narrative on the link above. Just take note of the distress of the female member of the National Guard. Reports are that the cartel members are targeting the families of police officers and soldiers with both kidnapping and executions. Hundreds have been killed.  Vehicles are also being commandeered for various uses. https://x.com/mog_Russ/status/2025677520771965053 In what seems an unwise move,  the body of "El Mencho" was moved by ambulance to Mexico City.  The video I watched showed reporters scrambling near the ambulance and what looked like a motorcade fit for the funeral of a dignity as it traveled down the street with his remains.  This alone - inflames the situation. 7:45 23 February: Additional links will be added below: My best guess is that El Mencho's son will be in U.S. custody because of Mexico's history of allowing their cartel bo...

Commander in Chief: Grand Ayatollah Khamenei Prophet Muhammad was actively engaged in nine ghazawat (plural of ghazwa). He headed up eighteen expeditions which did not involve a targeted battlespace, and dispatched around 55-60 additional expeditions.  These were smaller configurations with smaller footprints who were traveling with an appointed leader, under delegated authority.  These are known as the saraya of Prophet Muhammad.  One of the most comprehensive books of Maghazi was written by Mohammad bin Ishaque. It is a popular topic, and if memory serves me ISNA (Islamic Society of North America) had a session in Dallas several years ago addressing the topic of Prophet Muhammad as a General.   I find it interesting that a mosque in the United Kingdom chose the date of 9/11 for this information.  Maybe they don't give a damn that 200 people jumped to their deaths from the windows of the Twin Towers on 9/11.  It seems rather deliberate, doesn't it?
