True Hollywood stories

Al Bundy dishes.

Ed O’Neill has new bombshells about his longtime bitter feud with his “Married…With Children” co-star Amanda Bearse.

The sitcom ran for 11 seasons on Fox, from 1987 to 1997, starring O’Neill, Katey Sagal and Christina Applegate.

O’Neill, 77 starred as family patriarch Al Bundy, married to Peg (Sagal), while Bearse, 65, played Marcy, their neighbor and Peg’s friend.

During a recent appearance on the “Dinner’s On Me” podcast of his former “Modern Family” co-star Jesse Tyler Ferguson, O’Neill shared that he had some “regrets” about his relationship with Bearse.

In a 2013 interview with the Television Academy, O’Neill revealed that he and David Faustino were the only cast members who were excluded from the invite list when Bearse married her wife, businesswoman Carrie Schenken, in 2010.

When O’Neill confronted Bearse about being excluded from her wedding, according to him, “[She said]: ‘This was a very tough call, but I just feel that you would find it amusing that me and Becky would come in tuxedos in a church and walk down the aisle, and you and David would be snickering and finding it funny,’ ” he said, incorrectly recalling her wife’s name.

“I started laughing and she said, ‘See!’ And I said, ‘Well, you know why? Because it is f–king funny, and I’m not going to be the only one that doesn’t think so.’ But it was funny. She had a little white tux and, to me, it was funny. But in other words, she may not have been wrong in excluding me.”

Well hey, at least he can look back on the whole dustup realistically, rationally, and with good humor now. Which won’t ever be enough to dulcify the rage-a-holic bull dagger, her outraged “wife,” or their absolutely furious Big Gay Circle O’ Friends, no matter how many years have flown by since. Still, it’s something, right?

The answer, my friend, is blowin’ in the wind

“Scholarly rigour.” I love it.

Obviously, activities that are chiefly indulged in by white people – in this case, folk singing– must be deemed suspect and found problematic with great urgency, and then probed for hidden wrongness. At taxpayer expense. And all this scholarly rigour ain’t cheap, you know…

Behind this mannered waffle is the weird implication that devotees of folk music are somehow, simply by existing, excluding racial minorities. Shooing them away. Though, as so often, details on this point are neither obvious nor forthcoming.

Still, perhaps we can look forward to an academic interrogation of classic car shows in Nottinghamshire as some heinous bastion of “white-centricity.” Another item on the list of Things That Must Be Decolonised And Morally Corrected.

“Our aim,” say our tearful academics, “is to break down the barriers for people to get involved in folk music. Opening up the genre to different audiences.”

Different audiences. Not the audience that folk music actually has, mind, the one it attracts and which is arrived at via choice and musical inclination. And again, no actual barriers to participation are specified. But the audience is nonetheless all wrong, apparently.

Well, of course it is. Isn’t everything, really? Call it built-in job security for shitlibs: until their Collectivist Utopia has been realized in full, poor unenlightend Humanity will always need their Leftard betters to swoop in and save them from their own folly.

Say, did somebody mention a work-around just a little while ago?

Why yes, I do believe somebody did at that.

Lakeside Joe elaborates.

Although you can buy fireworks in the state, they’re not actually legal here. Indeed, The Tampa Tribune in 2014 called fireworks sales in Florida an “institutionalized charade,” leading one lawmaker to call for “more freedom (and) less fraud.”

The whole FUSA could use a hell of a lot more “lawmakers” like that guy, seems to me. If we’d had ‘em all along, from sea to shining sea, it’s a lead-pipe cinch we wouldnt be in the godawful mess we’re in now.

Retail sales are allowed only because of a 60-year-old loophole in the law, the only known one of its kind in the country. That allows “fireworks … to be used solely and exclusively in frightening birds from agricultural works and fish hatcheries.” Indeed, anyone who’s bought fireworks from a roadside tent over the years may remember signing a form acknowledging the buyer falls under an agricultural, fisheries or other exemption.
For the record, fireworks can also be used for “signal purposes or illumination” of a railroad or quarry, “for signal or ceremonial purposes in athletics or sports, or for use by military organizations.”

See what I mean? Now that there’s a GREAT workaround. As all such things should, it tells our would-be masters, in no uncertain terms: you go ahead and write your damned bills, pass ‘em, and pose for the press-gaggle cameras when the Gov signs them into law. Then the whole sorry lot of you can just sit back and watch as we all ignore the fucking things, you Big Government baglappers.

Funny, innit, how Texas keeps slip-sliding deeper and deeper into Progressivist/Mooselimb Perdition, while DeSantis’s Florida just goes from strength to strength to strength. As bastions of liberty go, Texas begins to seem mushy, unreliable, and dispirited, but the Great State of Florida looks more and more like a big upraised middle finger flourished all up in the grilll of Wokester Amerika in a show of defiance, doggedness, and direct challenge.

Up-down Innarnuts

Interesting prediction from Mark Steyn.

The Shrinking Horizon
Apparently, some twenty-five per cent of the Internet was inaccessible for much of the day – including (depending where you were) significant parts of the Steyn empire. Get used to it. A few years hence, “surfing the net” is going to be like switching on your kitchen light in Baghdad outside the Green Zone. This will be because China and other hostile powers will enjoy messing with us just to probe our strengths and weaknesses. But it will also be because the west’s own governments will appreciate the advantages of a more conditional Internet. Let us say that, oh, multiple schoolgirls get stabbed in Southport or Dublin. Or another couple of French schoolteachers are beheaded by their students. Or two German Christmas markets get mown down on the same day. Just in case some intemperate Lucy Connolly types are tempted to weigh in, would it not be in everyone’s interest for social media to be mysteriously afflicted by a Distributed Denial of Service?

Hate to say it, but put this way it sounds not nearly so far-fetched as I could wish.

You’ll want to read the rest, it being Steyn and all. The bit towards the end about the sudden meteoric rise in the number of mosques in Texas (!!) will freeze your gizzard, so chilling is it. Steyn keeps things light by reeling off a punny quip:

So a new mosque opens in the Lone Star State every fortnight? We are told “don’t mess with Texas”, but apparently you can mosque with Texas to your heart’s content.

Heh. Yep, apparently so. Which just makes Texas exactly like all too many other places in the Recumbent West these days.

Shot themselves in the foot again

These mooks are just too, toooo funny.

Defamation Suit Inbound? Behar: ‘Obvious’ Trump Is Epstein’s Pedophile Partner
ABC News may soon be facing down another costly defamation suit from President Trump. On Thursday’s edition of The View, moderator Joy Behar proclaimed that it was “obvious” that Trump was a pedophile in league with convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, and took part in the crimes the latter was convicted of.

Amid a segment where they were asserting that the Trump administration wasn’t going to release the Epstein files as Congress demanded with a law earlier this week, Behar insisted it was “obvious” that Trump was a co-conspirator:

Of course, it was no such thing. In fact…


OOOOOOOOPS...

In the course of a phone converstion earler, my brother and I reached the conclusion that Trump would have to be just about the cleanest man ever to enter the US political arena. The Hateful Left has been running a full-court press nonstop against the guy since 2015— investigating, sifting through trash bins, dumpster-diving, bribing snitches, hiring PIs, you name it—trying relentlessly to find anything at all, fair or foul, that they could use against him. And after all that digging, all that effort, all that work, still they got bupkis, di nada, zipparooni, a big fat goose egg.

And this effort wasn’t just a minor thing fobbed off onto the interns, part-timers, and other interoffice small-fry either. Oh no, this was All Hands On Deck: Party members of every rank, position, and payscale; the Enemedia “eite”; high-level FederalGovCo officials, whether elected or appointed; everybody, but EVERYBODY, had both hands and at least one foot in this filthy, stinking mess.

Except Trump, looks like.

Poor morons, one could almost feel sorry for them.  Almost.

Tucker: what happened?

One of the biggest disappointments for me over the past 3-4 years or so has been Tucker Carlson’s slow, sad slide from being one of the most effective, entertaining, and influential commentators on Our Side down to being just another gibbering, flakey-fringey weirdo who just doesn’t know when to shut up, but badly needs to learn. His baffling decision to sign on with the stupid, self-negating Kike-O-Phobic legions and start in. on peddling that rancid swill pains me no end. It would seem that PJM’s Scott Pinsker, whom I have excerpted/linked here many times before, shares my dismay (NOTE: No link; I didn’t include it when I began working on this post weeks ago and can’t find the original article now).

Two plotlines that keep popping up nowadays are centered on two specific themes: “Watch out for the Jews!” and “Everybody’s a Nazi but my guy.”

For the former, the Democratic Party had a near-total monopoly of the Hamas-loving, Jew-hating antisemites. Not every Democrat was an antisemite, but if you were marching against Israel, cosplaying in a keffiyeh, and harassing Jewish students, I’ll bet your bottom shekel that you didn’t vote Republican in the last election.

Until Oct. 7, 2023, hating Israel and linking “those Jews” to kooky conspiracies was strictly a leftwing phenomenon. Conservatives didn’t traffic in that trope.

Not so anymore.

And I’m not just talking about fringe voices — like Candace Owens, Nick Fuentes, and Marjorie Taylor Greene. I’m talking about one of the biggest, most influential, most widely-followed conservatives in the country: Tucker Carlson.

He’s done more to mainstream antisemitism in the Republican Party than anyone alive.

Carlson operates under the façade of “just asking questions,” which sounds innocuous enough: How could you possibly fault a guy for being so gosh-darn intellectually curious, hmm? Unless… (gasp) you’re HIDING something dastardly!

But it’s NOT intellectual curiosity. He’s NOT an investigative reporter, doggedly following the facts wherever they lead him, damning the consequences along the way.

He’s a professional propagandist who profits from peddling lies, conspiracies, and bigotry. He’s not “just asking questions” because he’s curious; he’s doing it because it’s profitable.

This is how he makes money.

I also don’t think it’s coincidental that Carlson’s antisemitic, anti-Israel “political conversion” came at the same time Qatar and Saudi Arabia launched a multibillion-dollar PR campaign to influence American opinion. Seems a bit too on-the-nose for that.

Don’t know if I can honestly say I’m with our boy Scott one hundred percent on this one. Specifically, I cant imagine that Tucker started spewing this bilious twaddle exclusively, nor even mainly, for the money. I very much doubt that; even with Qatar, the UAE, and the House of Saud kicking in, I simply do not believe that there’s very much money in hawking up Crackpot Right calumnies against the Tribe© and all its nefarious machinations.

——–

The above is the first part of a MUCH longer post I’ve had sitting in the “Local Drafts” hopper waiting for me to find a place for it out front here…which I just did, on account of another solid “Whither Tucker?” piece over at PJM, this one exploring the similarities and (especially) the glaring differences between Tucker and Mark Levin. To wit:

For years, Mark Levin and Tucker Carlson have been two of the most prominent conservative voices in the public arena. Currently, they are in a feud with each other. Levin has accused Carlson of being an antisemite and “fake Maga,” and Carlson has called Levin “evil.” Both men have been trusted for so many years, and it is important for the conservative movement in America that we take an honest look at each man, their feud, and the truth.

The styles of these two men are diametrically opposed, and this undoubtedly affects the feelings of people towards each man. Mark Levin is passionate and blunt; like a targeted bunker-busting bomb, he honestly and clearly makes his points and arguments. Carlson, on the other hand, is the exact opposite. More like a stealth fighter, Tucker Carlson is smooth and polished, saying more through implications and inferences than actually making clear statements. He often phrases his opinions as “Why can’t we just ask…,” as opposed to Levin, who clearly and cogently expresses his opinions not as questions but as facts.

The men are very different both as human beings and as commentators. Levin was heavily involved in actual politics prior to becoming a commentator, having worked in President Ronald Reagan’s administration as well as serving as chief of staff for Attorney General Edwin Meese. He is the former president of the Landmark Legal Foundation, an author of seven bestselling books, and, since 2015, editor-in-chief of the Conservative Review. From the time that Donald Trump got the presidential nomination in 2016, Levin has been an ardent and consistent Trump supporter. In April 2025, President Trump appointed Levin to become a member of the Homeland Security Advisory Council. Throughout his career, his opinions have been consistent. He’s condemned “Republicans in Name Only,” supported Israel as the first line of defense in the Islamic war against Western Civilization, and exposed the deep state coalition between Democrats and the media.

Tucker Carlson is almost the exact opposite type of human being in every way, having spent his entire career in media, first as a writer before moving into other media. His shows on X and the Tucker Carlson Network have made him one of the largest media personalities in the world, with almost four times as many followers on X as Levin. He has changed his public opinions on many issues multiple times. Formerly an economic libertarian, he now supports protectionism. Although originally supportive of the Iraq war, in 2004 he renounced his initial support for the war and now opposes U.S. foreign interventions. From 2000-2005 he was the “conservative” voice on CNN, NPR, and MSNBC. He was on Fox New until he was fired in 2023; he then started his own media company. Whereas Levin has always been a Republican since his graduation from college at the age of 19, Carlson was registered as a Democrat from 2006 to 2020, and even claimed to have voted for Kanye West over Trump in the 2020 election. Tucker was a supporter of John McCain; claims to be against abortion (more on that in a moment); and, at different times, has supported authoritarian regimes like Putin in Russia and Assad in Syria. Carlson has waffled over the years between supporting Trump and castigating him (in a 2023 court filing, Carlson’s text messages were exposed, in which he wrote that he hated Trump “passionately”); and most recently has come into conflict with the president regarding Israel, foreign policy, and a number of other issues.

Worth reading in full, I’d say, unless you care even less about Tucker Carlson’s bizarre collapse into the Jew-fetishism of the Crackpot Right than I do, which quite frankly would be very hard to do without spraining something. That said, i somehow managed to read the whole thing nevertheless and enjoyed it, so perhaps you might also.

Time to start shooting muthafuckiz yet?

I say oh HELLZ muthafuckin’ yeah, but could be that’s just me. I tend to be ornery like that sometimes, see.


Stupid Democreep Congresscritter don’t know fuck-all about the Founding Fathers, the US Constitution, the UCMJ, or actual by-God treason, so probably ought to shut her fat yap about such arcane matters with a quickness, before some more intelligent, less patient type shuts it for her.

Update! Oh crap, forgot my usual “Show more…” end-run. Here t’is:

Oh, lady, many millions of us who’ve actually served and sworn that oath, know both the constitution and the UCMJ intimately. Because we’ve had to decide many thousands of times if we were in accordance with each and both, before we shed blood, our own and others, for and in accordance with both.

As someone whose been in direct combat on behalf of our people in adherence to both the Constitution and the UCMJ. Here’s my rebuttal:

US Constitution on insurrection: Art. I §8 cl.15 empowers Congress to call forth militia to suppress insurrections; Art. III §3 treats levying war (incl. insurrection) as treason; 14th Amend. §3 disqualifies from office any prior oath-taker who thereafter engages in insurrection or rebellion against the United States.

UCMJ: No standalone “insurrection” article, but Art. 94(a)(2) punishes sedition—creating revolt/violence against lawful civil authority with intent to overthrow it—as severely as mutiny (up to death); related charges fall under Arts. 104, 134, or assimilated 18 USC §2383.

And, in my less than polite, yet no less erudite, enlisted man manner and verbiage. Go fuck yourself!

Bang, zoom, you tell ’em EM! Nice work, buddy.

Updated update! More buck-nekkid sedition, incitement to mutiny, and yes, flat-out treason, from you’ll never guess who.

The “resistance” continues against President Donald Trump by the spiritually and morally bankrupt folks who brought you the massacre at Benghazi, the bug out from Afghanistan, attacks on Elon Musk, ICE “protests,” and the disastrous foreign policy from the Joe Biden administration.

This time, these resistors want the U.S. military to disobey all those illegal orders that Secretary of War Pete Hegseth and Commander in Chief Donald Trump have been issuing, of which there have been exactly zero.

The point, however, is to leave the nagging, unspoken, and unsubstantiated questions lingering in the ether to treat President Trump’s use of the military with disdain and mistrust.

He must be doing something illegal!

By now, you know the ad campaign of which I speak. It’s the commercial made by Sens. Elissa Slotkin (D-Mich.) and Mark Kelly (D-Ariz.) and Reps. Chris Deluzio (D-Pa.), Chrissy Houlihan (D-Pa.), and Jake Sullivan’s wife, Maggie Goodlander, a congresslady from New Hampshire.

Hold on. That Jake Sullivan? Hillary Clinton’s sidekick in her Russia collusion fraud? That Jake Sullivan, who covered for Hillary’s use of a personal server on which she conducted state department business? Sullivan was Joe Biden’s National Security aide. That Jake Sullivan, who helped “plan” —to the extent there were any plans — the bug-out from Afghanistan? That guy who was so damnable that President Trump stripped away his security clearance? That guy? Yes, that guy.

Sullivan may not have his security clearance anymore, but that’s not stopping him from fulfilling his job duties at the Harvard Kennedy School as the inaugural Henry “Kissinger Professor of the Practice of Statecraft and World Order.” You can’t make this stuff up.

Happily, as long as we allow D卐M☭CRATs to live and carry on as they do, we won’t ever need to make anything up.

Oh, for the love of…

Just put a sock in it already, whiny-ass nigger bitch.

Would you believe that in the entirety of human history, no one has been oppressed as much as Michelle Obama? It’s true. Whenever she gets in front of a microphone, she can’t help but complain about how unfairly she’s been treated, how terrible white people are, or how racist our country is. She paints herself as chronically oppressed, endlessly scrutinized, and forever burdened by a country that never treated her fairly. I know it must not be easy having fame, fortune, a bunch of multimillion-dollar homes, and all that. It must be really, really brutal. The routine has become predictable, and her latest appearances only reinforce the sense that she carries a deep resentment toward white America, while insisting she’s the one who never got a fair shake.

Last month, in an interview with ABC’s Robin Roberts to promote her new book, she literally had the gall to claim that people unfairly scrutinized her while she was in the White House. Roberts began by quoting Michelle’s own words.

“You said, ‘We were all too aware that as the first black couple, we couldn’t afford any missteps.’ And you also say that as a black woman, ‘I was under a particularly white hot glare.’ Did you feel that?”

“For sure,” Michelle replied. “You can’t afford to get anything wrong because you didn’t get the, and at least until the country got to know us, we didn’t get the grace that I think some other families have gotten.”

Anyone who lived through the Obama years remembers the media environment. The media swooned over Barack’s speeches and treated Michelle like a cross between a fashion icon and a national therapist. Editors placed them on magazine covers every time they could justify it. Journalists fawned over Barack’s wardrobe, his aura, and even the crease in his pants, all while ignoring scandal after scandal after scandal. But, yeah, sure, let’s talk about how they were held to some fantasy standard that no first couple ever had to meet before or since.

Michelle Obama doesn’t know what unfair scrutiny is. She wouldn’t be able to tolerate a fraction of the scrutiny that the Trump family had to endure daily. Reporters attacked Melania for everything from her shoes to her accent. They smeared Trump’s children for no reason beyond their last name. Even the Bush family took heat, including the teenage daughters who never sought public attention. Those families took incoming fire every hour of every day.

Yet Michelle keeps insisting she lived through hardship that no other first family could possibly understand. Cry me a river. That narrative has become her brand.

Matt’s closing ‘graph is a killer.

Here’s a reality check, Michelle: You’re not a victim. You never were. The left canonized you the second you hit the national stage, and you’ve spent every moment since trashing America and demonizing white people — enough with the performative oppression routine. You’ve built an obscenely lucrative post-White House empire selling a completely fabricated narrative of “constant struggle” while swimming in wealth, worshipful media coverage, and cultural influence that 99.9% of Americans will never experience. Your sycophantic media allies breathlessly amplify every manufactured grievance as gospel, but your own venomous words keep exposing what this really is: barely concealed contempt and racism wrapped in designer victimhood.

So let’s tot it all up, then:

  • Not just one but three (3) palatial mansions in tony, exclusive locales;
  • A no-show job back in Chicago, arranged for her by her “husband” the Senator, which paid 350k/year;
  • 24/7 Secret Service protection for the rest of her useless life;
  • More money than she can ever possibly spend even if she just started lighting handfuls of it on fire and throwing it into the street to burn;
  • Anything and everything she could want, hers merely for the asking;
  • A large staff of hairdressers, makeup artists, chefs, maids, chauffeurs, personal attendants, and miscellaneous go-fers, knob-polishers, and rumpswabs for whom her every word is their command

This is a woman who, for most of her adult life, has never wanted for anything whatsoever, has never known need or hunger or poverty or lack. A spacious, lovely home, designer clothes, shoes, jewelry, and purses—all hers, without her ever even having to go fetch any of it—she has “people” to send out on such lowly, menial tasks, see. She travels in the most rarified circles, keeps the most exalted company, rubs elbows with the rich and famous..

The fanciest restaurants, the finest wines, the best seats in the theater, the concert hall, or the arena…and all she has to do to get them is simply nod her head at the right time, in the right place, to the right person. Nothing more taxing or obsequious than that. The people in charge of these amenities WANT her to have them, for no more complex or justifiable reason than that she is who she is, knows who she knows, and hangs out with all the right people. Her taste, in everything from sports cars to cashmere sweaters, is beyond reproach; an approving word for a product, a service, or a facility murmured into the right ears can keep a business humming busily along for a year…as a negative assessment can shut one down forever.

All this finery, this pampering, this sycophancy, flattery, and preferential treatment, this carefree, luxurious lifestyle—no part of it either earned or, really, deserved, but all of it hers nonetheless, most of it free of charge—yet STILL this ingrate bitches, she whines, she moans, she kvetches about how terribly, terribly HARRRUD De Wite Mayne has made life for her.

Meanwhile, for all her claimed victimization by Rayciss!© White Debbil oppressors, she could search arduously every minute of the rest of her life and never find one single ghetto-blighted soul who wouldn’t jump at the chance to exchange places with her, the blind, self-obsessed cretin.

What must life be like with one so bitter, so unswervingly determined to be unhappy always, so intently focused on the black storm clouds in the far distance that she’s totally incapable of seeing the silver lining right in front of her nose? How could ANY normal, sane person live with such a bleak, cheerless sort? For that matter, how does such a morose person live with herself?

I never imagined it could be so, but it would seem that Big Mike is an even more annoying, insufferable twatwaffle than his/her/its light-in-the-loafers “husband” is.

To make her shit at all worth putting up with, she’d have to be funnier than Dave Chappelle; smarter and more eloquent than Thomas Sowell; more talented than Wynton Marsalis; more graceful than the Nicholas brothers; better-looking than Billy Dee Williams at 32; and more personable than Louis Armstrong. Alas for poor Moochelle, she comes up way, WAY short in every category.

Just once,  just ONE. FUCKING. TIME in her miserable, oxygen-thieving existence, I wish I could see some burly, ill-tempered, and yes, WHITE project foreman hand her a shovel, direct her precious ass into a deep, muddy ditch, and command her to start digging and to go on digging until he specifically tells her to STOP. OH, what a beautiful sight that would be.

Handsome is as handsome does

And, y’know, does NOT.

Conservatives Run to Fetterman’s Defense After Fall As Liberals Sharpen Their Knives
While we don’t need more evidence that leftists behave like immoral, bloodthirsty ghouls — just look at their response to the assassination of Charlie Kirk for Exhibit A — it’s still important to highlight how quickly these psychopaths turn on their own. Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.) has no doubt discovered this after the reaction to his ventricular fibrillation and subsequent fall.

As soon as the news broke, conservatives across the country flooded social media with well-wishes, while the ghoulish left stormed Bluesky to make fun of him and lament that he survived. And they wonder why more and more Americans are embracing right-wing politics and values? Most Americans possess at least a teeny, tiny bit of human decency. The left appears completely bankrupt of that trait.

The Ghoulish Left. I like that one, gonna have to remember it for future use around h’yar.

Fetterman’s team announced that the senator experienced a “ventricular fibrillation flare-up” and then fell after feeling lightheaded. Keep in mind that this kind of heart condition can become fatal if doctors don’t treat it quickly. It’s far more serious than his team made it sound. Fetterman also sustained minor facial injuries and is expected to make a full recovery.

The Pennsylvania Democrat stayed in good enough spirits to crack a joke, saying, “If you thought my face looked bad before, wait until you see it now!” Steve Guest, a conservative commentator, exposed the true face of the demonic left by posting screenshots of several BlueSky comments from liberals, many of whom mocked him and wished he hadn’t gotten up again.

So it appears that Fetterman 1) doesn’t take himself too seriously; 2) has a thoughtful, mature perspective on most things; and 3) possesses a light, self-deprecating sense of humor also? Could somebody please explain to me exactly why the hell this guy is in the D卐M☭CRAT criminal organization masquerading as a political party? Or how he even wound up a “liberal” in the first place?

Oh, before I forget: I know it’s kind of A Thing nowadays to lean hard into the Ghoulish Left’s fat, hanging curve balls re: the Kirk-murder response and blast those big meatballs way out into the cheap seats, but let’s please all remember that their hydrophobic reaction was only a slight bit more foamy, frothy, and repellent than usual whenever one of Ours passes. No courtesy; no somber restraint; no trace of respect, grace, dignity, or sympathy for the living will ever be found to our Left. They expect—nay, DEMAND—all those things and much more when one of theirs shuffles on off this mortal coil, but they’d rather gargle diarrhea than extend the same courtesies and considerations to us.

Admittedly, the fact that they not only reveled in Kirk’s wanton slaying—gulping down huge punch-bowls’ worth of the pain and suffering inflicted on his family, friends; and associates; disrupting Kirk memorial gatherings and menacing those in attendance; trampling flower arrangements, knocking over tables and/or chairs, defacing. stealing, or otherwise vandallzing signs, and just generally demolishing impromptu displays expressing love, sympathy, and support wherever and whenever they see them; cavorting madly like horny teenagers high on Ecstasy in celebration of the atrocity—but also incited, promoted, and in every possible way participated in the murder themselves this time is something we haven’t seen a lot of to date. Still, the unseemly and insensitive after-party, the orgiastic glee over the violent death of a hated dissenter, the indecent, purposely hurtful savaging of the deceased as some kind of twisted monster, are all performative grotesqueries we’ve witnessed time and again over the last cpl-three decades at least.

IN SUM: don’t let’s anybody be thinking of the ongoing Charlie Kirk shitfling as any kind of departure from normal; above all, those who DO carry on as if the Kirk outburst represent an unlooked-for escalation or New Low should be called on it, firmly and unequivocally. This, like so much else, is simply who they are, it’s what they do.

Update! Via Insty, I give you Exhibit A for the prosecution.

A candidate for the Democratic nomination in a competitive congressional district celebrated the assassination of Charlie Kirk and said the United States deserved the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attack.

Samuel Smeltzer, an IT specialist who identifies as a honey badger and goes by the name “Elyon Badger,” has a history of violent posts on BlueSky, a left-leaning competitor to X, the Washington Free Beacon reported. He is running for the House of Representatives in Michigan’s Seventh Congressional District, currently represented by Republican Rep. Tom Barrett, according to the outlet.

Smeltzer, who has also praised the assassinations of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk and United HealthCare CEO Brian Thompson, once posted to BlueSky about being banned from X for saying the U.S. deserved the 9/11 attacks carried out by the Islamic group al-Qaeda.

The maniac raves on and on from there—ever more irrationally, offensively, and tiresomely, until by the end he’s just…well, frankly, he’s just blibbering. I cannot in good faith recommend that anybody read the rest of it, sorry.

You don’t hate them NEARLY enough

At the risk of sounding like the most boring old broken record on Earth: just when you think you’ve heard the absolute worst about the Enemedia you could ever possibly hear, along comes some shite like this.

The BBC’s Treason In The Falklands War At The Battle of Goose Green
The Battle of Goose Green in 1982 was part of the Falklands War between Britain and Argentina. It was especially notable for two things – the high casualty rate and how the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) committed treason.

Hyperbole? Overstatement? Just a typical attempt at rabble-rousing? Ahh, would that it were so, laddie-buck.

To understand this, here is a quick history lesson. Various European nations claimed them until Britain came along in 1690 and said, “Mine!” Spain did the same in 1713, but to make a long story short, their empire collapsed.

Among the territories they lost was Argentina. Though no longer Spanish, Argentines believe they are the successors of Spain’s claim. They were content to let things be till 1982. So why then?

It was because their military government needed a distraction. The country’s economy sucked. Ditto with its human rights record.

Solution? Distract the people with patriotism and do so before the upcoming so-called elections. But how? Hola, Falklands War!

While Britain was no push-over, the Argentine government gambled on three things: the islands have no strategic value; they have virtually no resources, and they are home to only a tiny population of mostly Brits.

The government also considered the British economy. It was not doing too well in the early 1980s, so the hope was that the Brits would be too distracted and too tight-fisted to do anything about an invasion.

Sure, they would scream and stamp their feet, but that would be it.

The Argentines were not at all worried about the UN. The country was constantly being targeted for its human rights violations, so what was another ding from the international community? People would simply get used to it – just like they did with Tibet.

It did not turn out that way, of course. Britain responded quickly with amphibious landings in San Carlos Water on East Falkland on May 21.

Enter Brigadier Julian Howard Atherden Thompson, commander of 3 Commander Brigade. His job was to take on the Argentines around Goose Green and Darwin.

The area was protected by Task Force Mercedes under Lieutenant-Colonel Ítalo Ángel Piaggi, made up of the 12th Infantry Regiment (IR12) and 3rd Company. Defended by 20 mm Rheinmetalls, two radar-guided Oerlikon 35 mm anti-aircraft guns, and a battery of three OTO Melara Mod 56 105 mm pack Howitzers, Thompson’s job would not be easy.

To make it even more challenging, his men could not be flown in. Most of their helicopters had been aboard the Atlantic Conveyor – which was destroyed by Argentine missiles on May 25.

The plan, therefore, was to land troops at San Carlos Bay and have them walk for two days until they reached Goose Green.

On May 26, the 2nd Battalion of the Parachute Regiment (2 Para) under Lieutenant-Colonel Herbert Jones started to do just that. The Argentines were in for a surprise!

Or so Jones thought until he turned on his radio.

He had tuned into the BBC World Service, which was happily telling the world that the 2nd Para was poised to launch a surprise attack on Goose Green. So much for surprises!

Of course, the treasonous-Left wretches at the Beeb never did face the music for their act of high treason, and the whole sorry affair has been largely forgotten by now—having been eclipsed by more and far worse perfidies over the intervening years. So much so, in fact, that I doubt any of us, either in Once-Great Britain or Amerika v2.0, would even bat an eye at Enemedia staging an encore presentation today.

I and plenty of others have written again and again about the indispensible necessity of keeping the politicians scared half out of their wits of We The People, which injunction remains as relevant now as it ever was. We should also remember, though, that the same necessity obtains for Enemedia “journalists” as well, perhaps even moreso.

In the almost certainly apocryphal words of Thos Jefferson, Samuel Adams, Thomas Paine, and George Washington: When the government fears the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny. Whoever said them, wherever they came from originally, the essential truth of those wise words cannot be gainsaid. Let the government, the ProPols, and the Enemedia Hell-kites all quake in terror of us then, as should always and forever be.

Straight talk

In case you’ve forgotten, this is what a heroine looks (and sounds) like.


PREACH it, baybee!

It’s just plain good sense

What the hell, it’s about as much so as anything else is these days.

Ladies: You need to get yourselves under control.

A leading indicator of this age is the unprecedented rise of “women” raping other women, “women” exposing themselves on buses, “women” taking out their penises and masturbating in public, “women” touching female children in public bathrooms, etc.

Starting around, oh, 2018, the rates of “women” committing gross sexual offenses previously the domain of mentally-ill men absolutely skyrocketed.

It was unprecedented — and yet not a single “expert” in the field of policing or criminality offered any explanation for it. Not a single study, not a single white-paper report.

Equality, bigots. It’s called equity. Women can take out their penises and rub them against women standing in front of them on the subway, too.

And yes I started that sentence saying it’s “equality” and then stealth-changed the term to “equity” and you know that means? It means you’re a transphobic racist for noticing the change in terminology.

Or are you saying women aren’t ALLOWED to excel in male areas of achievement, bigot?!

Heh. Oh Lord no, far be it from me to ever say such an awful thing.

Memezapoppin’!

Welcome to this week’s installment of our Wednesday meme feature, folks. Links to the “found via” sources will be attached to the specific MiQ’s (Memes in Question) whenever I can remember them, which likely won’t be very often. Only the first two memes will appear above the fold to save on bandwidth usage, since I assume not everybody who shows up at this here websty will want to see all of them. This intro will appear at the top of each week’s Memezapoppin’! post. Enjoy, funny-pitcher lovers…

"America is at that awkward stage. It's too late to work within the system, but too early to shoot the bastards."
Claire Wolfe, 101 Things to Do 'Til the Revolution

Claire's Cabal—The Freedom Forums

FREEDOM!!!

"There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
Daniel Webster

“When I was young I was depressed all the time. But suicide no longer seemed a possibility in my life. At my age there was very little left to kill.”
Charles Bukowski

“A slave is one who waits for someone to come and free him.”
Ezra Pound

“The illusion of freedom will continue as long as it’s profitable to continue the illusion. At the point where the illusion becomes too expensive to maintain, they will just take down the scenery, they will pull back the curtains, they will move the tables and chairs out of the way and you will see the brick wall at the back of the theater.”
Frank Zappa

“The right of a nation to kill a tyrant in case of necessity can no more be doubted than to hang a robber, or kill a flea.”
John Adams

"A society of sheep must in time beget a government of wolves."
Bertrand de Jouvenel

"It is terrible to contemplate how few politicians are hanged."
GK Chesterton

"I predict that the Bush administration will be seen by freedom-wishing Americans a generation or two hence as the hinge on the cell door locking up our freedom. When my children are my age, they will not be free in any recognizably traditional American meaning of the word. I’d tell them to emigrate, but there’s nowhere left to go. I am left with nauseating near-conviction that I am a member of the last generation in the history of the world that is minimally truly free."
Donald Sensing

"The only way to live free is to live unobserved."
Etienne de la Boiete

"History does not long entrust the care of freedom to the weak or the timid."
Dwight D. Eisenhower

"To put it simply, the Left is the stupid and the insane, led by the evil. You can’t persuade the stupid or the insane and you had damn well better fight the evil."
Skeptic

"There is no better way to stamp your power on people than through the dead hand of bureaucracy. You cannot reason with paperwork."
David Black, from Turn Left For Gibraltar

"If the laws of God and men, are therefore of no effect, when the magistracy is left at liberty to break them; and if the lusts of those who are too strong for the tribunals of justice, cannot be otherwise restrained than by sedition, tumults and war, those seditions, tumults and wars, are justified by the laws of God and man."
John Adams

"The limits of tyranny are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppress."
Frederick Douglass

"Give me the media and I will make of any nation a herd of swine."
Joseph Goebbels

“I hope we once again have reminded people that man is not free unless government is limited. There’s a clear cause and effect here that is as neat and predictable as a law of physics: As government expands, liberty contracts.”
Ronald Reagan

"Ain't no misunderstanding this war. They want to rule us and aim to do it. We aim not to allow it. All there is to it."
NC Reed, from Parno's Peril

"I just want a government that fits in the box it originally came in."
Bill Whittle
