Civics primer

Posted on November 29, 2025 by Mike

A civics lesson in movie-review mufti.

Constitutional purists, in the main, adhere to the judicial philosophy of ‘originalism.’ That is, they do not believe the Constitution and its Amendments are evolving or subject to change in meaning based on the mood of the times. They try to understand the contemporaneous intent of the words by those who wrote them.

Those of us of a certain age will likely think this just too durned obvious for words, while for most of you young whelps out there it will probably come as real news.

Another civics lesson, complete with obligatory CF-style digression, that’s been languishing in the “Local Drafts” folder for a goodish while now, presented in full below the fold.

A Thanksgiving to remember

Posted on November 28, 2025November 29, 2025 by Mike

Poor guy won’t be forgetting THIS one anytime soon.

On a day to give thanks for all the blessings of America, it fell to Gary Beckstrom to announce to the world the death of his twenty-year-old daughter, Sarah. That will taint Thanksgiving every year for the rest of Mr Beckstrom’s life – in part because his child’s blood is on the hands not just of her killer but of the public policy that enabled the murderer to be on the streets of what passes for the national capital. Thanks, America!

The Democrats are in favour of admitting the killer of the next Sarah Beckstrom, and non-Trump Republicans are happy to string along. Here is the famously rock-ribbed “conservative” Bill Kristol, a few weeks after the fall of Kabul:

Follows, a particularly obnoxious Tweet/X from the loathsome Kristol asserting, to wit:

Almost every Afghan refugee will turn out to be so much better an American than Charlie Kirk. https://t.co/CdKZCCm2BO

— Bill Kristol (@BillKristol)

August 16, 2021

Is Mr Steyn done, you ask? No, Mr Steyn most certainly is NOT done; in fact, Mr Steyn is just getting started.

Mr Kristol was the most prominent cheerleader for the two-decade unwon wars that made the supposed hyperpower a global laughingstock. After spending so long urging Americans to die for Jalalabad, he should surely have picked up along the way an actual fact or two about the joint. Otherwise, he risks appearing a shallow, parochial bleepwit whose “Project for the New American Century” looks more like a Project for a No American Century.

Facts? For starters, as I wrote in The National Post of Canada twenty-four sodding years ago, in Afghanistan it is forbidden by law for women to feel sunlight on their faces. Perhaps Bill Kristol could impose similar strictures on his own womenfolk and let us know how it goes.

To take him more seriously than he deserves, presumably Kristol believes that Charlie Kirk’s claims to Americanness rest on outmoded concepts such as being born in America to American parents and being raised in American institutions such as the Presbyterian Church and the Boy Scouts. Whereas to the Wanker Right America is nothing so vulgar and restrictive but is instead an “idea”, whereby simply by getting off the boat at Ellis Island and setting foot on American soil one imbibes the principles of life, liberty and the pursuit of nine-year-old child brides from the next village. Whoops, sorry, I mean the pursuit of happiness.

Had it right the first time, Mark, but what the hey.

Loads more to this one yet, of which you should definitely read the all, it being Steyn and all. For my own part, I’d like to ask a question if I may: Has there ever, in all of recorded history, been any other single person who has been so spectacularly wrong so many times as Bill Effing Kristol? Take your time with that answer, gang, no rush. Really, when you get right down to it, this could well be another instance of the type of question which, as they say, to ask is to answer.

Posted on November 25, 2025 by SteveF

The Indian concept of “izzat” has been in the news lately. It’s similar to the Chinese concept of “face”: concern with how an individual’s actions reflect on the group. These are sometimes called “shame cultures”. Most Asian cultures are shame cultures.

“Guilt cultures”, roughly speaking, dominates where Christianity dominated, and most strongly where Protestantism dominated. Guilt cultures look inward, focusing on individual failings and the need for improvement.

In a shame culture, self-improvement to overcome the shame does not seem to be a factor. Instead, the group needs to hide itself away for a while, or extirpate the shame by killing or ejecting or purifying the offender, or killing anyone who witnessed the shame.

Guilt cultures and shame cultures do not understand each other.

Guilt cultures and shame cultures are fundamentally incompatible and should not be mixed.

Day by day, it looks more and more like the JooJooJooJooJOOOOO-hatin’ Crackpot Right might very well be right about Britain having fought on the wrong side in WW2 after all.

The British Jews who have gone to show there should be no places unsafe for Jews in the UK have been escorted to a ‘Jew pen’ by the police.

Kudos and much respect to that brave, defiant handful, but the awful fact is that Once-Great Britain is gone. Which means that those valiant Aston Villa fans who dared to confront the foul Muzzrats are standing up for a cause that was lost long ago—so utterly lost is said cause that now, their own government, police, and all other British authorities are brazenly, unashamedly against them, waging war against native Brits instead of the vicious, unassimilable barbarian hordes brought in by their own fucking government against their wishes.

All in all, the situation in the former UK is disgusting, intolerable, and damned near beyond belief. But none of us on this side of the Pond needs to be feeling any too smug about the Anglishters’ awful plight: after all, our own Federal goobermint spent the last several years doing the exact same thing over here. Although Didact (Via WRSA) points out a few salient aspects:

Britain today is Exhibit A of Steve Sailer’s dictum that, if you invade the Third World, you then invite the Third World, and you eventually become the Third World. Modern Britain is well on the way to doing so. And, unlike the FUSA, where there is a colossal problem with illegal immigration – there might be as many as 50 million illegals in the US, no one knows the true number – the problem in Britain is with legal immigration, particularly from Shitholistans like India, Pakistan, and Nigeria.

In my view, that’s in effect a distinction without a difference. Can Americans straight-facedly tell ourselves that our problem is “illegal immigration,” when for years our own federal government has been distributing fliers and running ads in Central American shitrapies urging the immivaders to come right on in and bring the whole fam damiiy; America is eager to welcome them. Once over the border there will be no further pursuit of them by Border Patrol, ICE, local police, K9 teams, or any other law-enforcement entity. Better yet, the USG will fly them gratis into the interior, find them housing, and issue them a FederalGovCo ATM card preloaded with up to $5000 to spend however they wish. Moslems, sundry flavors of Hispanic, espionage-trained Chinese males of military age—Come one, come all! Alls you gotta do is get here, and you’re on Easy Street, baby!

Technically, I guess they ARE “illegal immigrants,” but when the central government has taken it upon itself to fling open the borders, issue blanket invitations to prospective “newcomers,” assist them in getting signed up for all available assistance programs, health care benefits, andjust basically see that their every need is met courtesy of Uncle Sam, no strings attached, it becomes kinda tough to think of them as “illegals,” no?

Here’s the depressing bit.

The proportional level of repatriation that will be required to restore Britain to its old ways, seems far higher and much more disruptive than what it would take in the FUSA – where it might take the mass expulsion of over 100 million people just to get things to calm the hell down. Yet there seems to be no real political stomach or appetite among the British people to force the issue.

I have never, ever, met a sadder or more apathetic bunch of losers than the modern Anglo-Saxons, who once created the greatest empire the world has ever known, and who brought light and civilisation to the most savage places on Earth. Almost none of them are willing to say what needs to be said. Almost none are willing to tell the truth about the immense damage done to their country by immigration, by Jewish financial and media control, and by the unworkable construct of postmodern globalism-liberalism.

*sigh* Just HAD to throw in that JooJooJooJOOOOZ© jab, dinchya? I very much doubt that British Pyrsnnz of JOOO are terribly thrilled about importing the selfsame yodeling, goat-humping jihadis so fanatically devoted to killing as many Jews as they can get their hands on. Now, LIBERAL Jews are another thing completely. It’s like I always say, the problem ain’t with the Judaism, it’s with the Left/liberalism. Eyes on the ball, people, eyes on the ball. We got problems aplenty to worry about as it is; no need to make up new ones to go with them.

As for that “repatriation” business, it simply is never going to happen. Things have gone way too far by now; Britain is beyond fixing at this point, even if sufficient will existed to take a stab at it, as Didact explains. To even begin dealing effectively with the plague f Moslem locusts w9uld requre a national effort almost as massive as D-Day, and it’s painfully clear that today’s British subject just doesn’t have it in him. Te agonized shrieks emanating from British liberals the instant the very first Muzzrat kiddie-diddler gets put on a bus for the nearest airport is an awesome thing to contemplate. All caring, compassionate, enlightened subjects of His Majesty’s Government would sooner set themselves on fire than to be so beastly to their new neighbors, don’tchaknow.

The rest of what Didact says in the two ‘graphs immediately above is 100% factual, fair, and accurate. I descry no credible argument to be made against ’em. Which is a damnable shame when you think about it; would that none of it were so, alas!. But…well, here we all are.

As I already said, no Yank needs to feel all prideful and superior about our own situation. Where Bad-Off Blighty now is, the US soon will be, unless steps are taken without further ado. We’re on the exact same road they are, and they’re not as far ahead of us as we like to think either. For years I’ve read that, to see where mainstream American will be in five years culturally and/or socially, just look at what’s happening in California at present. To know where we’ll be politically in ten years, look to our British cousins. According to my own observations, that precept has held up FAR more often than it hasn’t.

We’re sill two very different countries, two very different peoples, so don’t expect the resemblance to be exact—it won’t be. The divide between Over Here and Over There is probably least stark, least marked, in London, and even at that I can tell you that any Amercan on his first trip to London will think he woke up on an alien planet until he’s had a few days to settle down and get into the London groove. Some more profoundly old-school British villages like, say, Great Yarmouth or Hawkshead might as well BE on another planet. That said, though, we’re close enough nonetheless—too close for comfort these days, in fact.

No, sadly, tragically, Great Britain is lost, never to be brought back again—one of the verymost spectacular national self-immolations in human history. If we don’t pull our heads out of our asses and reacquaint ourselves with certain harsh truths tout de suite, we will soon be joining them.

No more “investigations,” no more “inquiries,” no more “blue-ribbon panels”

Posted on October 26, 2025October 26, 2025 by Mike

As Steyn says, we already know what it’s REALLY all about. And as always with ProPols and the crooked, venal tyrannies they build, maintain, and control, it definitely is NOT what they try to convince us it is.

The “national inquiry” Keir Starmer got bounced into announcing is now falling apart. Five victims of the “Asian” “groomers” have now quit the panel because they objected to both candidates for chairman – a choice between a social worker or a police officer, members in good standing of the two professions that most enthusiastically enabled the rapists. So, naturally, the only angle that interests the UK’s grisly media is whether the relevant minister, Jess Phillips, will now be forced to resign for calling the gang-raped girls “liars”.

We don’t need an “inquiry”. Because it’s all been known for years…What exactly is there to “inquire” into? We know who’s raping the girls. We know who’s colluding with them. We know it goes up to the Home Office, the House of Lords and at least two prime ministers. I suppose we don’t know the full story of why the “establishment” is covering for Ahmed and Mohammed, but we aren’t going to get it from Jess Phillips, are we? What can be deduced, even from my short monologue above, is that every English town covers up in the exact same way – whether northern and gritty or southern and leafy, or indeed midland and ambivalent. So it would not be unreasonable to posit that the cookie-cutter cover-ups are at the direction of headquarters in a Home Office now wholly hollowed out by Islam.

So it’s not a whodunnit, it’s a we-all-know-whodunnit-but-we-can-never-say-it. Why? Because the root cause of clan-based child-sodomy is the foundational myth of the post-war west – that Diversity is our Strength. No fifth-rate baroness for hire is going to go anywhere near that. That is also why, to the progressive mind, there is no acceptable rationale on which one can reject as mayor a Ugandan twelver who only thought to apply for US citizenship when he got into New York electoral politics. Old-school Tammany gladhanding wardheelers like the wretched Cuomo might still be willing to raise an objection or two, but he’s up against a culture that a generation ago decided the enlightened response to Islamic supremacism was to double the rate of Muslim immigration to the west.

The chilling conclusion:
The freedom to speak honestly about Islam would be more powerful than all the Cruise missiles lobbed at Afghanistan since 2002. But, if you’re indifferent to little Charlene Downes being fed into a kebab mincer, why get hot and bothered about the most powerful mayor in America being palsy-walsy with co-conspirators of the first World Trade Center bombing?

Across the west, the crisis is moving beyond politics.

Said a mouthful there, Mark; the crisis is doing precisely that. In fact, I might go so far as to say that it has already done precisely that…while tout le Western monde looked on langorously, sans even a whimper of protest. In any event, I think it safe enough to say that there are no satisfactory resolutions of the multitudinous crises, challenges, and dilemmas before the West to be found in the realm of politics. So far beyond politics has the crisis moved, in fact, that in my considered opinion a political solution is no longer possible. Furthermore, given how comprehensively our politics have been degraded, defiled, and discredited, a politics-based resolution to this or any other crisis might not even be desirable.

As alarming as that surely is, worse yet is that nobody, but nobody, has the slightest idea as to how this business might shake out, nor of what shape the West vs Pisslam struggle might take once the fog of war has cleared and the casualty lists have been compiled. Just because the jihadists are ascendant at present doesn’t mean this will always be so, after all. Although I’m not confident enough about that assertion to place any big-money bets against the yodeling fucktards, in light of A) the single-minded Moslem commitment to total, uncompromising world domination; and B) Western indolence, irresolution, and obstinate refusal to face facts.

It’s all too tempting to take putative Western global supremacy as read, a permanent and unalterable state of affairs. This unfounded predilection could in its turn persuade us to drop our guard, stack arms, and relax into the comforting embrace of the ubiquitous delusion that all is well, that things will carry on pretty much as they have done since time immemorial. In the words of Mrs Mather Grouse, an indeiiably memorable character from Richard Russo’s terrific novel Mohawk: everything is going to be just fine.

As every good Western Whypeepuh knows (or thinks he knows), there is no reason for anxiety, alarm, or undue fuss. Such things are indulgences, not imperatives. Neither is there an implacable horde of primordial savages we must wrangle with and overcome, no existential threat marching as to war against us. In addition, no American is intent on murdering his fellow Americans, either one at a time or en bloc It’s a crying shame, really, how so many of us have come to believe, based on nothing whatever, that their fellow Americans are crazed, violent thugs bent on destroying everything normal, sane folks hold dear. Stuff and nonsense, i say! Pure poppycock!

Despite unambiguous, gizzard-freezing declarations of their eternal ambition to earn the favor of Allah (piss be upon Him), via slaughtering decadent Western infidels to the last man Jack of them, our Moslem partners in peace (FACT: I have it from unimpeachably authoritative sources that the word Islam means peace, so there) are just human beings not at all different from you or I. A family; a nice home; democracy; stability, a decent job which pays well enough to cover expenses in full and on time, perhaps with a little left over at the end of the month—get my point? It’s plain to see that our Moslem friends want the same things as the rest of us do.

Many Americans might be astonished to learn how conciliatory, easygoing, and warm-hearted they are. The Moslem peoples are unfailingly polite, trustworthy, kind, broad-minded, and affable. Their integrity is a byword, their loyalty beyond question, their open-handed generosity unstinting, their culture and traditions as rich and varied as they are beautiful.

Their love of music, their dedication to the fair treatment, respect, and equality of/for women, their placid, untroubled mindset, their inborn jocularity, irreverence, and adaptability—all these qualities and many more are hallmarks of the Moslem world.

All in all, Moslems are just as America as we are. No really, they are. Stop laughing, you guys!

Okay, okay, enough with the sarcasm awready, Kiddio. In truth, Ye Aulde Bloggehoste is still having a tough time wrapping his head around the credulity-straining notion that NYC—being the selfsame NYC where the Muzzies struck a blow on 9/11/01 so ferociously injurious that Western Civ entire is reeling from it still; the place where the long, deep, and ugly scar slashed into the face of the Earth that black September morn remains visible at Ground Zero—now a popular tourist attraction featuring mobile beer/liquor/hot dog/falafel carts, shopping outlets, food trucks, live bands, a Tilt-A-Whirl, and a nightly fireworks display—is about to hand over the keys to the City, in both the figurative and quite literal senses, to not just a Moslem but a fucking Communist, terrorist-friendly Moslem, no less.

Not 25 years after the 9/11/01 atrocities, THIS is what it’s come to? SRSLY, New York???

The repellent Mayor Momdani scenario feels like some kind of crazy dream or something—one of those extravagantly baroque ones from which you jolt awake quaking with fear, the cold sweat soaking you, your pajamas, the sheets, et al, In fact, this dream was so bad, so mind-bendingly terrifying, as to leave you groping desperately in search of the switch on the little bedside lamp so’s you can get a little fucking LIGHT up in here, dammit! Because let’s face it: a pitch-dark, spooky, graveyard-quiet back bedroom is no place you want to be in all by your lonesome at such a fraught moment. Not after what you’ve just been through with that hellish dream and all, it ain’t.

in the wake of such an intense scream-dream (night terrors, the shrinks call ‘em, as dear, kindly old Dr Rankin explained to me in his Lucky Strike-roughened growl during yet another 3AM house call way back when; as a child, I was sorely beset by such-like dreadful visitations) is when the grim reallization floods over you in the manner of the famous poet’s blood-dimmed tide—before your jackhammering heart has had time to ease down, slow its frenetic pace, and resume a more survivable rhythm—that this dream will be hanging around in your sub-conscious mind for a long time, nagging at you, haunting you. Much as you’d like to forget the foul thing, to wash its accursed memory from your imagination like the lather of fear-sweat it brought forth on your corporeal self, you damned well know you won’t. That, in fact, you can’t.

So tell me true, then: am I the one that’s lost my marbles here? Or is it THEM?!? What the actual fucking FUCK is the deal, New Yorkers? Has the time finally come to surround The Big City with that 20-feet wall, topped with great looping lengths of razor wire (electrified, natch), augmented by guard towers manned 24-7 by armed security personnel with across-the-board deadly-force authorizaton and blanket prosecutorial immunity, upon completion of which the self-blighted shithole is declared, by proper adjudicative process held in a court of law, to be finis non habemus for any and everyone not currently sentenced to do hard time inside The Wall.

Bondi, Noem forcefully criticize Democratic plan to launch ICE tracker
WASHINGTON — White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said a Democratic plan to launch a “master ICE tracker” would amount to “actively putting the lives of ICE agents at risk” after Attorney General Pam Bondi and Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem forcefully hit back against the push to monitor activity of Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers in communities.

Leavitt’s comment at Thursday’s White House press briefing, in which she also criticized other ICE tracker apps that “left-wing activists have created,” came after Noem took to X to warn against the proposal, announced this week by Rep. Robert Garcia, D-Calif.

“Let’s call this what it is: a pipeline that will funnel information on American law enforcement directly into the hands of anarchists, domestic terrorists, and cartel members,” Noem claimed in her post.

The post included a clip of Garcia at a news conference alongside Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass on Monday in which he announced the plan for Democrats on the House Oversight Committee to launch such a tracker on its website.

“Over the course of the next couple of weeks, the Oversight Committee will be launching on their website a master ICE tracker where we are going to be essentially tracking every single instance that we can verify that the community will be able to send us information on,” the California Democrat said. “And it will be all available in one central place.”

If I’ve said it once I’ve said it a thousand times, and I’m gonna keep right on sayhing it: The criminal organization masquerading as a political partty known as the D卐M☭CRAT Party should be disbanded, dismantled, and formally outlawed by the US Congress. Yesterday wouldn’t be too soon.

Update! Daniel says it straight up, no chaser.

The political, regulatory, lawfare and street assaults on ICE are a multi-front war to protect a form of organized crime, human trafficking and illegal border invasion, that the Democrats disproportionately benefit from. And California and Oregon Dems are testing out strategies that will be copied by their colleagues across the country as part of a campaign of insurrection.

The anti-ICE violence is not random, it’s not extremist, it’s coming from the top down. It’s a coordinated insurrection and it should be treated like one.

Seconded, with all my might.

A message to our Jewish “friends”

Posted on October 6, 2025October 6, 2025 by Mike

Figure it out, chowderheads.

For years I clung to the belief that, despite the rise in hostility to the Jewish community, we could still build lives here. I had watched from abroad during Jeremy Corbyn’s leadership of the Labour Party from 2015 to 2020, when Jew-hate poisoned the party and seeped into wider politics. Yet, despite my deep disappointment, I still believed in this country enough to move back from Hong Kong in 2022. I wanted to believe the Jewish story here still had a future, and I was determined to be a part of it.

October 7, 2023, changed everything. Hamas carried out the deadliest attack on Jews since the Holocaust, and instead of residents recoiling in horror, Britain’s streets filled with marches that celebrated it. Even after two Jews were massacred in Manchester yesterday, on Yom Kippur, the marches continued.

Jew-hatred has become mainstream here. It has been excused by leaders. It has been embedded in a culture where terrorism is justified and Jewish suffering denied.
Your main problem is right up there in that first sentence, that “for years I clung to the belief” business.

CLUE TO THE CLUELESS: For many deca∂es, Once-Great Britain was run by “liberals.” Now, it is run by Moslems. Moslems hate Jews with a passion as burning-hot as the Sun. So do “liberals.” Period, full stop, end of story. Figure it the fuck or die; there is no “Third Way” here.

Another Culture-Enriching Success Story in France
If you follow the European cultural enrichment news closely (which I have been doing for almost twenty years), you’ll notice the frequency of stories about a bizarre and sickening custom practiced by third-world migrants, usually Muslims: the rape of octogenarians, or even nonagenarians. The victims are usually women, but not always: I remember at least one report (I think it was in Germany) of the nursing-home rape of a man in his nineties.

But, hey, it’s just cultural differences, you know? It’s no big deal; no reason for outrage.

Bold mine, because Tarzan on a big red scooter, dude.

We do not need them, we do not want them, our society is completely incompatible with their Stone Age belief system, yet Western governments go right on bringing them in to live among civilized people regardless.

I repeat: explain it to me, please. Assuming there even IS an explanation, beyond just sheer bloody-mindedness and nothing more.

(Via WRSA)

Update! Just had to share with y’all where that weird reference to Tarzan and big red scooters came from. It happens to be one of my all-time favorite lines from one of my all-time favorite Raymond Chandler novels, The Long Goodbye, an insult lobbed by gangster Mendy Menendez at all the world’s most beloved private dick, the formidable Philip Marlowe. A lengthier passage:

He looked me over unhurriedly. “Tarzan on a big red scooter,” he said.

“What?”

“You. Marlowe. Tarzan on a big red scooter. They rough you up much?”

“Here and there. What makes it your business?”

“After Allbright talked to Gregorius?”

“No. Not after that.”

He nodded shortly. “You got a crust asking Allbright to use ammunition on that slob.”

“I asked you what made it your business. Incidentally I don’t know Commissioner Allbright and I didn’t ask him to do anything. Why would he do anything for me?”

He stared at me morosely. He stood up slowly, graceful as a panther. He walked across the room and looked into my office. He jerked his head at me and went in. He was a guy who owned the place where he happened to be. I went in after him and shut the door. He stood by the desk looking around, amused.

“You’re small time,” he said. “Very small time.”

I went behind my desk and waited.

“How much you make in a month, Marlowe?”

I let it ride, and lit my pipe.

“Seven-fifty would be tops,” he said.

I dropped a burnt match into a tray and puffed tobacco smoke.

“You’re a piker, Marlowe. You’re a peanut grifter. You’re so little it takes a magnifying glass to see you.”

I didn’t say anything at all.

“You got cheap emotions. You’re cheap all over. You pal around with a guy, eat a few drinks, talk a few gags, slip him a little dough when he’s strapped, and you’re sold out to him. Just like some school kid that read Frank Merriwell. You got no guts, no brains, no connections, no savvy, so you throw out a phony attitude and expect people to cry over you. Tarzan on a big red scooter.” He smiled a small weary smile. “In my book you’re a nickel’s worth of nothing.”

He leaned across the desk and flicked me across the face back-handed, casually and contemptuously, not meaning to hurt me, and the small smile stayed on his face. Then when I didn’t even move for that he sat down slowly and leaned an elbow on the desk and cupped his brown chin in his brown hand. The bird-bright eyes stared at me without anything in them but brightness.

“Know who I am, cheapie?”

“Your name’s Menendez. The boys call you Mendy. You operate on the Strip.”

“Yeah? How did I get so big?’

“I wouldn’t know. You probably started out as a pimp in a Mexican whorehouse.”

He took a gold cigarette case out of his pocket and lit a brown cigarette with a gold lighter. He blew acrid smoke and nodded. He put the gold cigarette case on the desk and caressed it with his fingertips.

“I’m a big bad man, Marlowe. I make lots of dough. I got to make lots of dough to juice the guys I got to juice in order to make lots of dough to juice the guys I got to juice. I got a place in Bel-Air that cost ninety grand and I already spent more than that to fix it up. I got a lovely platinum-blond wife and two kids in private schools back east. My wife’s got a hundred and fifty grand in rocks and another seventy-five in furs and clothes. I got a butler, two maids, a cook, a chauffeur, not counting the monkey that walks behind me. Everywhere I go I’m a darling. The best of everything, the best food, the best drinks, the best hotel suites. I got a place in Florida and a seagoing yacht with a crew of five men. I got a Bentley, two Cadillacs, a Chrysler station wagon, and an MG for my boy. Couple of years my girl gets one too. What you got?”

“Not much,” I said. “This year I have a house to live in—all to myself.”

“No woman?”

“Just me. In addition to that I have what you see here and twelve hundred dollars in the bank and a few thousand in bonds. That answer your question?”

Madness, or method?

Posted on September 5, 2025September 5, 2025 by Mike

Oh, I dunno; I think maybe “diabolical stratagem” might actually be more the mots juste, with “Satanic plot” overtopping all comers to take the prize for accuracy, honesty, clarity, and forthrightness. Regarding the UK’s arrest of decidedly non-Woke comedian Graham Linehan for the heinous crime of Aggravated DoublePlusUngoodthink W/ Intent to Poke Fun at Pyrsynzz Of “Transgender,” Steyn opines:

I was glad to see Rupert Lowe post this:

I stand with Linehan.

Arrested for a social media post.

This is MADNESS.

— Rupert Lowe MP (@RupertLowe10)

September 2, 2025

However, I disagree that it is “MADNESS”. It is not. It is conscious strategy – because even any residual culture of free speech is incompatible with what they’re planning to do to you.

Which is why I don’t think “politics”, at least as it has been traditionally understood, will be much help to us. Have you been following the German municipal elections? Headline from Bild:

Parteien verpflichten sich, nur positiv über Migration zu sprechen

Which means:

Parties commit to speaking positively about migration

Hang on, that must be some sort of typing error, right? But no:

The CDU, the SPD, the Greens, FDP, the Left Party, and Volt have agreed, at the initiative of the Cologne Round Table for Integration, not to speak negatively about migration during the campaign. This so-called ‘Fairness Agreement’ by all the parties except the AfD (which was not even asked) stipulates that ‘migrants and refugees must not be held responsible for negative social developments such as unemployment or threats to internal security’. In principle, the parties have agreed ‘not to conduct the election campaign at the expense of people living among us with a migrant background.’

So all the parties but one have agreed to talk only positively about mass migration. This in a city, Cologne, where migrants marked New Year’s Eve a few years back with an orgy of mass rape that “mainstream” media declined to report, and in a country where only the other day an “asylum seeker” threw a sixteen-year-old girl under a train.

The dead girl is from Ukraine. She would have been safer in a war zone – as would this Ukrainian lady in North Carolina. If you wanted to incentivise revolutionary uprising, you would do as the German establishment did and sign a “fairness agreement” confirming that electoral politics is just a massive diversion for the rubes. Oh, but don’t worry: the political class is still free to have vigorous disagreements on the Shopping Mall Parking Lot Expansion bill.

The tyrannies of Europe really ought to rethink just what it is they’re incentivizing here, lest their Oaf Class subjects get themselves a bellyful of being abused by their own governments and decide it’s high time they started doing a little “incentivizing” of their own.

Unappealing update! CHERCHEZ LE “TRANNY”!!!

Graham Linehan accuser ‘is disgraced transgender police officer’
A disgraced transgender police officer is believed to have reported Graham Linehan, the gender-critic Father Ted creator, to the police over his social media posts.

Former Pc Lynsay Watson, who was born Alex Horwood, was sacked by Leicestershire Police for gross misconduct in 2023 after allegedly harassing a free speech campaigner and critic of gender ideology.

An anonymous social media account, believed to be linked to Watson, boasted in April this year of reporting Linehan to the police over several social media posts he made about transgender issues. The account encouraged other transgender activists to do the same.

Watson has a well-documented history of calling on police forces to pursue criminal investigations of campaigners who are sceptical of the belief that self-identification, and not biological sex, determines what a man or woman is.

Just when you thought the story couldn’t possibly get more off-putting than it was already…

Gee whiz, how did THAT happen?

If We Duh Peepul could ever get to the bottom of this sort of thing and then put an end to it, we’d be a long way toward fixing most of what’s wrong with this benighted country.

Rep. Ilhan Omar’s net worth skyrockets to as much as $30 million – months after denying she was a millionaire
Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) reported a net worth of up to $30 million in her latest financial disclosure — a document filed just months after the congresswoman dismissed claims she was a millionaire as “ridiculous” and “categorically false.”

The disclosure, filed in May, shows the far-left “Squad” lawmaker and her husband, Tim Mynett, experienced a roughly 3,500% increase in net worth last year, compared to 2023.

The surge in the couple’s wealth was first reported by the Washington Free Beacon on Monday.

Now in fairness, there does seem to be a reasonable explanation for the sudden explosion in the wealth of this particular ProPol which doesn’t indicate the usual bribery, influence-peddling, or general corruption. To wit

The financial gains came from Mynett’s two businesses, a Santa Rosa, Calif.-based winery and a venture capital firm headquartered in Washington, DC.

Omar valued the winery’s assets at between $1,000,000 and $5,000,000 in her latest disclosure. By comparison, the winery, eStCru LLC, was only worth between $15,000 and $50,000 in Omar’s previous financial disclosure.

More dramatic was the explosion in growth experienced by Mynett’s venture capital firm, Rose Lake Capital LLC.

Rose Lake Capital’s assets were valued at between $5,000,000 and $25,000,000 by the end of 2024. The company had less than $1,000 in assets the previous year.

Okay, I’ll allow it. Now do all the other Congresscritters who wind up loaded to the bejeezus bells after only a cpl-three terms, please.

Perhaps Omar/Nur didn’t straightaway get to grifting and grafting with all hands and feet the moment she took office, but she still shouldn’t be allowed in the US Congress except as a tourist just the same, simply by virtue of having publicly declared that she considered herself a representative NOT of the citizens of her state or district but of her native country of Somalia and intended to conduct herself accordingly, thereby rendering the oath of office she took “freely, without…purpose of evasion”—in which she solemnly swore that 1) she would to the best of her ability “preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States” and 2) that she would “bear true faith and allegiance to the same”—nothing but an obscene joke.

Also in fairness, she’d hardly be the first ProPol to take said oath with fingers and toes crossed, more’s the pity.

Once-Great Britain: it’s even worse than we thought

Posted on August 31, 2025 by Mike

Incroyable. Also shocking, contemptible, and beyond belief.

The British establishment pushes back against the Scottish lass narrative UPDATED
The story of the Scottish lass arrested for brandishing a knife and axe in the face of a migrant who was apparently threatening and taunting her swept through the West. This bold young woman symbolized the fighting spirit of those who are sick and tired of having their governments flood their countries with hostile Muslim migrants who act like conquerors, entitled to lodging, food, and rape. After a day or so of stunned silence, though, the British establishment has struck back with a story of an innocent Bulgarian couple threatened and taunted by a crazed teen.

The question, then, is where does the truth lie? For those who have seen the British government’s hostility to the Britons, the answer seems clear.

Seeing that video, people understood the following: a group of very young teenage girls in a rundown part of the Scottish city of Dundee were being harassed by a foreign man. They were urging him to stay away, but when he kept stalking them with his phone, one of them displayed her weapons to let him know that the girls weren’t helpless.

If the man were a decent person, he would never have been stalking them with a phone. Instead, he encouraged her to show the knives, knowing that the girl would be arrested, while he, being a foreigner (and possibly a Muslim), would get a pass for what was, at a minimum, harassment with a pedophilic edge.

That narrative tied in perfectly with a nation that had the Grooming Gang scandal, which saw Muslim men abuse thousands of British girls (and some boys), while the authorities turned a blind eye, and that’s been flooded with aggressive Muslim immigrants who have caused the rape rate to soar. Thus, in the whole of 2014, before Germany’s Angela Merkel opened Europe’s borders to the Muslim world, the UK had 26,703 reported rapes. Last year, in just the first three quarters of 2024, Britain had 69,958 reported rapes.

An X user yclept “Aesthetica” says she spoke with the girls’ mom and got the real skinny, which is as follow:

“I spoke with the mom of one of the girls (Mayah) and got the entire story that the media is covering up and lying about.

So first of all, the reporting got the names of the girls mixed up. There were 3 girls who were there who were accosted and attacked by the migrants.

Lola – Lola is the hero from the video. She’s the one with the axe defending her sister from the migrant attackers

Ruby – Lola’s older sister who was attacked and hospitalized

Mayah – Ruby’s best friend who was with them and went to call the police after Ruby was attacked by the migrants

Here’s the summary of what happened from Mayah’s mother:

“Yes. So what happened was the girls where out just walking and the man in the picture made comments to lola(the younger girl) calling her sexy and other sexual remarks then the girls started to tell this man to leave them alone and stop following them and making sexual remarks to them. After that the man’s sister (also in the picture) came around the corner and physically attacked ruby(the older sister) she grabbed her hair dragged her to the floor started to punch her then both the man and woman where kicking her in head while she was on the floor. At this point my daughter (mayah) called the police so my daughters account after that is all abit blurry. But that is when lola had the weapons she pulled them out to protect ruby. After that the man came back at lola recording her making sure she showed the weapons to the camera and antagonising her. Ruby was hospitalised after the attack with a severe concussion a tennis ball sized lump to the back of her head as well as lots of bruises.”

Naturally, this is when the utterly despicable British government springs into action.

In response to commenters questioning why the girls were well-armed, Aesthetica explained that this wasn’t the first time migrants “attacked and accosted” them. The GiveSendGo that Aesthetica has established has already raised £73,614 ($99,415).

Of course, there’s no way to know whether Aesthetica’s version of events is true or if the GiveSendGo is legitimate. There is nothing to augment this report, including information about a girl sent to the hospital with a concussion. It’s currently unverified hearsay.

What’s interesting, though, is that the establishment is pushing back with a counternarrative that paints the girls as youthful thugs who attacked a helpless and pure Bulgarian couple.

Thus, under a BBC photo showing not only the girl’s face but also her scary weapons blurred out, the BBC reports that Scottish police are fighting back against “misinformation.” The truth, per the police and the BBC, comes with minimal details: “The force said a Bulgarian couple – a man and a woman – were approached by youths in St Ann Lane, Lochee, at about 19:40 on Saturday.”

The Daily Mail, which used to be a vaguely conservative (by British standards) rag, but is now virulently anti-Trump, purports to tell “the truth” about the innocent Bulgarian man and to show “how wrong rabble rousers Elon Musk and Tommy Robinson were.”

According to the Daily Mail,

…the man being threatened is a family man who has been living in the UK for four years – and who was accompanied by his wife on the way to the shops when the incident occurred.

Far from being fresh off a cross-channel small inflatable, as implied by Robinson and Musk, Fatos Ali Dumana, 21, says he came to Britain legally from Bulgaria and he and his wife have an eight-month-old baby.

[snip]

‘I never touched her. I didn’t hit her, I swear on my life, I have a baby now. I would never hurt someone.

‘If she’s only 12 why was she messing with me and having weapons?

‘I was going to the shop and she was stopping me going on my way. ‘If I did hurt the girl, why didn’t the police arrest me?

There are more protestations of innocence, with the most interesting being that there is CCTV camera footage (and Britain is the most heavily CCTV’d nation in the once-free world) proving his story. The police, however, won’t release any CCTV footage.

The Daily Mail adds that the story saw “former Scottish First Minister Humza Yousaf [a Muslim] state: ‘Who would have guessed the far right were full of bulls***.’”

How DARE they! The sheer nerve of these treacherous, treasonous pustules. Were these evil blaggards capable of shame, they’d have all died of it by now.

My recommendation to the Sod in the Street: overthrow the government, round up every shitweasel either employed by or in sympathy with the Fascist State and Enemedia, and then kill ALL the scumsuckers involved in this grotesque fiasco: the goat-humping rapefugees; the British/Scottish government officials/admins/Boss-heads/paper-pushers/shit shovelers/rumpswabs who have betrayed pretty much everybody they COULD betray in such an abominable fashion; the Enemedia propagandists who have been cheerleading right along; and the badged pigs who were all too happy to “just follow orders” and arrest not the loathsome “Asian” predators, but the young girls victimized by them.

Know the dead giveaway as to how thoroughly immured in unrighteousness the Brit authorities now are? Easy-peasy: clearly, they have no fear at all of burning in Hell for their sins, being atheists who don’t believe in the existence of Heaven, Hell, God, Satan, good, evil…or in much of anything else, really.

All in all, the whole affair—particularly the ass-backwards and wrongside-up official response to the plight of young Lola, Ruby, and Mayah—calls to mind the words of the ancient prophecy: Satan laughing spreads his wings…

Boy, Old Scratch must’ve cracked a few ribs, chipped a tooth, and collapsed a lung from laughing over the shit circus in Ole Blighty.

Thou Shalt Not Leave The Plantation!

Posted on August 7, 2025 by Francis W. Porretto

Republican mantra: “Thou shalt speak no ill of a fellow Republican.”
Democrat mantra: “Outside this church there is no salvation!”

I’m sure Cold Fury’s Gentle Readers have noticed that the Democrats have been expressing concern about Pennsylvania Senator John Fetterman’s mental state… now that he’s started to exhibit occasional flashes of rationality. Apparently his earlier quasi-schizophrenic behavior was quite all right with them. A similar case appears to be in progress in North Carolina:

     “As a social scientist reports, all cultures are not equal,” [Charlotte Representative Carla] Cunningham said. “Some immigrants come and believe they can function in isolation, refusing to adapt.”
     She added, “No country is going to allow people to come in and not acknowledge its constitution, legal systems and laws.”
     Several Democratic lawmakers spoke out against Cunningham’s remarks, including Charlotte State Senator Caleb Theodros.
     “This idea that, the comment was that there are some cultures beneath others, I’m paraphrasing here, I think is antithetical to everything we teach our kids,” he said.
     Theodros did not say Cunningham should be replaced in her district, but he did say representatives need to speak out against, what he calls, “bad policy.”
     “To see that come from Democrats is disheartening,” he said. “Roughly 600,000 people are set to lose their healthcare in the next few years unless we do anything. That has nothing to do with the number of immigrants or a certain culture that’s superior to another.”

Apparently the Democrats feel that the gospel of multiculturalism – a premise embedded in the foundation of Democrats’ marriage to “Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion” – must be maintained at all costs. As long as the costs fall on private citizens and not legislators, that is.

The linked article contains no information about felony crimes attributable to illegal aliens in North Carolina, but if the patterns observable in the rest of the nation apply to the Tarheel State, we may assume that ridding itself of illegals will reduce the burden on law enforcement as well as other public services. The Democrats can’t have that, either. Anything that helps a state function to… well… function is anathema to them; it weakens their case for more spending.

I normally don’t pay much attention to politics in the Carolinas. Perhaps I should start.

Have people had a bellyful of it yet?

Posted on July 17, 2025 by Mike

Looks like the Spaniards may have, some of them at any rate. Heartfelt kudos to those cake-eating civilians for at last r’aring up on their hind legs, angrily screaming “ENOUGH already!!” Next comes the traditional raising of the Middle Digit Of Hate© in the general direction of Established Officialdom at every level, closely followed by aggrieved Serf Class knaves taking matters into their own (unwashed) hands.

Hopefully, it’s not already way too late for the Spanish Peasant Uprising of 2025 to be of much help in the way of significant sociopolitical change, beyond affording the local yokels a fleeting sense of pride, bravery, and honor reclaimed—both personal and national varieties in one fell swoop, as they say.

Big Trouble in Torre Pacheco
For the last few days there has been widespread unrest in the region of Murcia in southeastern Spain. The trouble began last weekend in Torre Pacheco, when a 68-year-old was attacked and wounded by what he said were Moroccan culture-enrichers. Angry groups of native Spaniards then took to the streets looking for Moroccan culprits, and from there the unrest spread to other Murcian cities. There have been multiple reports on the ructions in recent news feeds (see, for example, The Daily Mail, GBNews, Blue News, Brussels Signal, and European Conservative).

The following article from the Spanish public broadcaster RTVE, also translated by Gary Fouse, describes recent events in Torre Pacheco:

6 arrests for attacks, damages, and altercations in the unrest in Torre Pacheco (Murcia)
Six persons have been arrested — five Spaniards and one Maghrebian — for assaults, damages, and altercations in a police operation deployed in Torre Pacheco, Murcia, as Mariola Guevara, the government delegate in the community, reported tonight.

Thus, during Sunday, the forces and agencies of state security have arrested another five persons, all of Spanish nationality, in addition to the Maghrebian arrested on Saturday.

Three of those were arrested were for attacking a Moroccan minor and for causing damage to a journalist’s sound equipment; two others were arrested as they were walking around in a group on a public street wearing bicycle helmets in a suspicious manner.

Hmph. SO, then, let’s recap:

Violent retribution against randomly selected Muzzrat immivaders
Trashing the (pricey) gear of purveyors of Europropaganda
Carrying out a surveillance and intel-gathering mission, as well as intimidating, confusing, and antagonizing the enemy via large groups dressing and conducting themselves “in a suspicious manner,” which sounds like all-purpose legal bafflegab whose meaning is adjustable according to the circumstances; the aspect which pisses off the Spanish Stasi most of all is how the RAYCISS!© thugs evinced not the least concern at the prospect of arrest, jail, fines, and presumably, execution by keelhauling

I dunno; sounds to me as if those Spanish ReichWingNaziDeathBeasts© have their heads screwed on straight—clearly, their hearts are in the right place, and they’ve got their priorities in order. Some regularly-scheduled range time—let’s say, a bare minimum of two (2) hours, thrice weekly—could well be indicated here, before Spanish Leftwits completely outlaw all such terrifying, deadly, and barbaric places and pursuits.
