 Ace asks: Do you want to take this kinetic? Because this is how you take this kinetic. Let me make this perfectly clear: YES. Yes, as a matter of fact I DO want to take this kinetic. As seriously awful as that prospect is, the scenario in which we just continue to sit supinely back and permit the Goosesteppin’ Left to destroy what little is left of America That Was is much, much worse.

Which means that all of the following people I sincerely wish to see shot in the face, guillotined, drawn and quartered, keelhauled, set upon by a pack of rabid hyenas, and hanged by the neck until they are dead, dead, DEAD. Before very much more time has elapsed, we have gone full-on Commie, and it’s too fucking late to put a stop to this arrant nonsense.

I mean it: kill them. Kill them all. No, I am not in any way kidding about this. They are oxygen thieves who are unfit to draw breath; merely by their unwanted presence in it do they befoul our God-graced nation. They should be removed, by any and all means necessary. Period fucking DOT.

Play for blood, remember shitlibs?

“How it works”

Mayor Mammyjammy says, like he has the least inkling.

Mamdani Unveils Innovative Plan to Tax New Yorkers to Pay for Their Low-Cost Groceries
Comrade Zohran Mamdani, the Communist Twelver-Shi’ite Mayor of New York, on Tuesday unveiled his plan for government-run grocery stores as if they were actually a good thing. Dear Mayor, who always has the best interests of The People at heart, has set aside $70 million for this foray into government-sanctioned theft and redistribution, and says that this exercise in vote-buying and making people dependents of the state will be operational in late 2027. So there’s something to look forward to, at least if you’re in the habit of collecting signposts on the highway to civilizational destruction.

In full socialist states, high walls and guards with machine guns keep the productive people from fleeing, and the threat of the gulag keeps them working. In Mamdani’s New York, the productive people will grow tired of paying for everyone’s groceries, and will leave the city. Unless Mamdani can figure out a way to tax everyone who has ever lived in New York City, his socialist grocery stores will fail.

Mamdani, however, is all for trying the socialist “experiment” again anyway, despite unanimously negative results. “New York City,” he said with grandiose ebullience, “it is time for a grand experiment once again, just as LaGuardia used government to respond to the challenges of the Great Depression, we will use government to respond to rising prices and unaffordable groceries.”

It’s time for the socialist experiment again? Really? Millions killed and millions more in the gulags weren’t enough? The killing fields of Democratic Kampuchea weren’t enough? The failed economies of the entire Soviet bloc weren’t enough? This is like doing a basic science experiment for the umpteenth time and wondering if it will come out differently this time: will the boiling water not become steam this time? No, the same thing will happen that happened all the other times. Socialism will fail again.

Mamdani explained: “Now, here’s how it works. The city will subsidize a core set of staples. A private operator will run the store, but the answer to the standards that the city will set these standards include requirements that at our stores, bread will be cheaper, eggs will be cheaper, grocery shopping will no longer be an unsolvable equation, and workers will be treated with dignity.”

That’s swell, but here is how it works also: The stores will quickly run out of the low-cost items, as the demand will far exceed the supply. After all, who doesn’t want free stuff? There will be long, long lines to get virtually anything at these stores, and after they run for a while, those who are paying for them will go broke or leave the city or both, and they will collapse. If you’re skeptical about this, note that this was exactly what happened to city-run grocery stores in Kansas City, and much of it happened also in New York City itself when a private firm ran a week-long experimental low-cost grocery store back in February.

Not one of these collectivist/authoritarian/totalitarian jackwagons ever seems to be at all interested in asking the most obvious, common-sensical questions of themselves as regards their proven-failure program. Why, one might almost conclude they’re frightened to death of the answers or sumpin’.

YOICKS!

ICE is large, in charge, and on the job

All the more reason for anti-American “liberals” to hate their guts, then.

Scott Jennings Shuts Down CNN Panelist’s Anti-ICE Rant With Single Question
(DCNF)—Salem Radio Network host Scott Jennings shut down former Department of Homeland Security Chief of Staff and “No Kings” agitator Miles Taylor Monday night by asking him one question about an arrest at San Francisco International Airport.

President Donald Trump on Saturday ordered United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents to assist Transportation Security Administration (TSA) officers who have been working without pay for over five weeks. Taylor complained about a Sunday arrest, which took place before Trump’s order took effect.

“Is there a single report today of something going awry with ICE agents… Maybe there is” Jenning asked before “CNN Newsnight” guest host Kasie Hunt responded, “Well, thank God, for 24 hours something didn’t happen.”

“There was. There was an ICE agent refusing to identify himself arresting a woman in an airport, freaking people out. They weren’t even sure. It was in San Francisco airport,” Taylor claimed, with Jennings responding, “Well, what kind of an interaction was it actually? Do you know the situation?”

ICE agents apprehended an illegal alien from Guatemala who tried to flee as the agency was trying to enforce a deportation order dating from 2019, according to a Monday post on X.

Bold mine, and entirely dispositive. I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again: if it weren’t for lying, shitlibs would have nothing to say at all.

Deport. Them. ALL. Reminds me of a minor hassle I had with a Hispanic Walmart delivery driver who couldn’t speak a lick of English. He couldn’t find my house even after I’d wasted nearly half a damned hour on the phone trying to walk the guy in turn by turn, finally ran across my place by sheer luck and/or actual magick. It was entirely obvious that the guy couldn’t read the street signs, and had no clue what I was saying.

Throughout this whole frustrating circle-jerk the halfwit kept asking me did I no hablar the español, until I finally got sick and tired of messing around with his dumb ass. I told him no, I most certainly did NOT hablar the español, that this was the United States of America, that we speak English in this country, and that if this was a problem for him he definitely needed to consider going back to wherever the hell he came from. After having had to deal with these immivaders dozens of times—screwed-up grocery orders, wrong and/or missing items, orders thrown out into the front yard of the wrong house several miles away, lather, rinse, repeat—I get where this FLA State Trooper is coming from.


Heh. THAT’S how you do it: shut ’em down; impound the truck so whoever hired this asshole for the driver job gets to share in the misery for a change; deport the driver; and throw the entire upper-level management of said corner-cutting trucking firm in prison for a 10 year stretch. Let the non-English-speaking trucker climb back into his rig with nothing more punitive than a citation written in a language he ain’t gonna understand, imposing a fine he ain’t gonna pay and setting a court date he ain’t gonna show up for, on the other hand, and soon enough Chico’s gonna kill a family of four when his (overweight, uninsured) tractor-trailer slams head-on into their subcompact struggle-buggy at 80MPH, whistling a peppy little conjunto tune as he motors happily along down the wrong side of the highway.

Invidious comparison

Posted on      by     

Feast your eyes on one of the smoking-hottest females ever to grace this Earth with her pulchritudinous presence: the stunning Ann-Margret.Ann Margret.

And now, try hard not to puke at the maggot-gagging sight of American Traitor Bitch Jane Fonda, mugging with her NVA pals and making goo-goo eyes at an enemy AAA battery.

Comparison? Ain’t none, if you ask me.

I remember reading someplace or other ages ago that somebody actually tracked down that same NVA flak battery some years after the Vietnam “conflict” had ground to an ignominious halt and established that one of the guns in the above pic had almost certainly brought down an American F105 “Thud” mere weeks before the Leftist tool Fonda mounted up, grinned lasciviously, and started humping the infernal thing, to the eternal delight of the camera-wielding press scoundrels nearby.

Thus was Hanoi Jane’s defining moment captured on celluloid, her disgrace enshrined indelibly, her reflexive hatred for America and everything it stood for placed well beyond the bounds of reasonable debate. Thus did a million zillion kajillion posters, T-shirts, bumper stickers, and patches come to be.

Ann-Margret Olsson was dubbed “the female Elvis” by their fellow cast and crew members when she and the King were co-starring in Viva Las Vegas; because of its aptness and unerring accuracy the nickname stuck.

Ann-Margret began recording for RCA Victor in 1961, first recording “Lost Love”. Her debut album And Here She Is…Ann-Margret was recorded in Hollywood, arranged and conducted by Marty Paich. Later albums were produced in Nashville with Chet Atkins on guitar, the Jordanaires (Elvis Presley’s backup singers), and the Anita Kerr Singers, with liner notes by mentor George Burns. She had a sexy, throaty contralto singing voice.

RCA Victor attempted to capitalize on the “female Elvis” comparison by having her record a version of “Heartbreak Hotel” and other songs stylistically similar to Presley’s. She scored a minor success with “I Just Don’t Understand” (from her second LP), which entered the Billboard Top 40 in August 1961 and stayed six weeks, peaking at number 17; the song was later performed by the Beatles in 1963. In 1962, Ann-Margret was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best New Artist.

Her only charting album was Beauty and the Beard (1964), on which she was accompanied by trumpeter Al Hirt. Other career highlights included appearing on The Jack Benny Program in 1961 and singing the Bachelor in Paradise theme at the 34th Academy Awards in 1962. Her contract with RCA Victor ended in 1966. In 1963, Life Magazine mentioned that her recordings had sold in excess of half a million units.

Ann-Margret was a far better dancer and/or actress than she ever was a singer, it must be admitted. But as a Female Elvis, she was not just the best ever, she was also the one and only.

Of course, Ann-Margret and Elvis Aron Presley embarked on a truly torrid love affair during the filming  of VLV which continued to smolder for quite a while afterward also. The Ultimate Celeb-U-Couple were the Toast of Tabloid-town until finally Ann-Margret faced up to certain hard realities: 1) that she would never be allowed to take Priscilla’s place; 2) that she was getting pretty bored with Elvis’s “helpless hermit of Graceland” schtick; and 3) that basically, there was no real future for her with Elvis beyond the unsatisfactory one she was already up to her comely clavicles in.

After doing the math, the incredible Ann-Margret strutted out of Elvis’s life and back into her own on those long, flawless gams of hers. Even so, the two maintained a solid, comfortable “just friends” relationship right up until the King’s August 1977 passing, making her one of the very few women in Elvis’s life to pull off that daunting feat other than Gladys “Satn’in” Presley and the redoubtable Ginger Alden, who first met Elvis when she was all of 5 years old, then at 20 dated him for two months before E popped the question and she responded in the affirmative. Margret also remained very close with her all-but-father-in-law Vernon, throughout the extended illness which plagued his last few years, until the heart attack which claimed his life in mid-1979.

Chumped!

Did Trump just play that dumbass Tucker Carlson like a cheap violin? Hmmmm, could be, could be.

New Theory Emerges: Was the Supreme Leader Set up by a Leaker Named… Tucker Carlson?
Hmm. So Carlson admits he was “talking to people in Iran before the war.”

To whom was he talking — and what was he talking about?

Because we know he spoke directly to the leadership of Iran. Less than a year ago, he bootlicked Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian in an astonishingly powder-puff “interview.” And when a journalist (or whatever Carlson is) has relationships like that, he tends to use ‘em.

It gives you a competitive advantage: Access is power.

Furthermore, before the Iran War began, we know Tucker Carlson made numerous trips to the White House. Multiple outlets reported that Carlson was attempting to convince President Trump not to go to war against Iran.

Yet once war broke out, Carlson insisted Israel must’ve somehow talked Trump into it.

It’s all very intriguing, because one of the biggest mysteries of this war is, why the heck were the Iranian mullahs and their “supreme leader” so careless and stupid to meet all together in broad daylight? It decapitated Iran’s government.

Anyone with half a brain would’ve known how dangerous that was!

And now, finally, an explanation emerges.

Perhaps the reason why the mullahs and their “supreme leader” were lulled into a false sense of security was because Tucker Carlson told them that the president was bluffing: There were no strikes coming, so there’s nothing to fear.

Full disclosure: I don’t know for sure if this theory is true. Just like Tucker Carlson, I’m “just asking questions.”

But as far as conspiracy theories go, you’ve gotta admit, the pieces fit quite nicely.

Don’t they just. You can just about hear Trump laughing his ass off from all the way over here.

Fret not, foks; that loud POP-POP-POPPITY-POP! sound you keep hearing is just “liberal” heads exploding, from sea to shining sea.

Rep. Ogles Proposes Amending the 22nd Amendment to Allow Trump to Serve a Third Term
WASHINGTON, DC – Congressman Andy Ogles introduced a House Joint Resolution to amend the Constitution of the United States to allow a President to be elected for up to but no more than three terms. The language of the proposed amendment reads as follows:

“No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than three times, nor be elected to any additional term after being elected to two consecutive terms, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice.”

“President Trump’s decisive leadership stands in stark contrast to the chaos, suffering, and economic decline Americans have endured over the past four years. He has proven himself to be the only figure in modern history capable of reversing our nation’s decay and restoring America to greatness, and he must be given the time necessary to accomplish that goal. To that end, I am proposing an amendment to the Constitution to revise the limitations imposed by the 22nd Amendment on presidential terms. This amendment would allow President Trump to serve three terms, ensuring that we can sustain the bold leadership our nation so desperately needs,” said Congressman Ogles.

Oh HELLS muhfuggin’ yeah! Though I’d guesstimate it has no chance whatsoever of passing, much less being implemented—which I’m sure Ogles knows as well as the rest of us do—I’m still one hunnert and umpteen percent on board with this move.

And bang, zoom! Just like that, Congressman Ogles’ über-canny political maneuver goes into the “Win” column—if only because of how delightfully it’s gonna get under The Enemy’s skin and just irk the everloving tar out of those clot-head pantywaists, and nothing else. Trust me, I am in no way, shape, or form joshing y’all about this: for shitlibs, Ogles’ Big Idear is gonna smart awhile.

Most likely, they’ll still be feigning shock and revulsion over this black-belt exhibition of Instructor-level Stunt-Politicking for years to come, as their Jurassic Media poodles blind-loyally take up their customary role with eagerness and aplomb, ferociously snapping, yapping, and growling, pretending they’re much more fearsome Guardians of Forbidden Knowledge than they in fact are.

Yes, this abominable Crime Against Duh Peepul amounts to beyond-reasonable-doubt confirmation of Our Side’s genetically-instilled penchant for duplicity, guile, perfidious anti-Superstate agitation, and E-ville Moste Foule™ in the “minds” of their loathsome ilk, which imagines Normal American Whypeepuh to be nothing more nor less than the final straw which broke the back of Our Sacred Democracy© past any hope of repair or restoration.

Mark the date, folks, and believeth Ye Humble Aulde Bloggehoste when he proclaimeth unto you: these pitiful Pearls will still be weeping, wailing, and gnashing their teeth over the mountebank Ogles’ deliberately provocative and reckless H88 Crime sixty/seventy years from now, perhaps much, much longer than, even. If this latest involuntary spasm of bargain-basement histrionics—quelle horreur, quel dommage!—turns out to be insufficient impetus to goad the slope-shouldered, sunken-chested, gender-indeterminate Lefty Loser Legions (ie, pAntifa, Black Lies Murder, the ASWP, Pink Rifles, to name but a few) into taking to the streets en masse and wreaking a grownup-size dose of Duh Peepuls “Justice” upon the severely dangerous, perilously imminent menace which all intelligent, compassionate, well-meaning Leftist-Americans acknowledge the aptly-named Basket of Deplorables to be, I haven’t the vaguest clue what might do the trick.

The legendary Yogi Berra gives us all a demonstration of what greatness really is.

More than a decade after New York Yankees legend Yogi Berra passed away, his family has announced a deeply moving decision: fulfilling his last wish – auctioning off his entire Hall of Fame collection, estimated to be worth around $8 million, to raise money for charity.

This news immediately stunned the MLB community. Not because of the $8 million figure, but because of the meaning behind it. According to family representatives, Yogi Berra clearly instructed in his will that his awards, championship rings, Hall of Fame medals, and other memorabilia associated with his illustrious career should not be kept as family property, but should be used to “help those in need of opportunity.” A family member shared in a statement: “He always said that the rings and trophies didn’t belong to him alone. They belonged to his teammates, his fans, and his community. He wanted them to continue creating value.”

Initial estimates suggest the total auction value could reach or exceed $8 million. All proceeds will be distributed to various charities, including veterans’ support, youth education, and medical research.

As Lakeside Joe notes, in addition to the fame he earned on the baseball diamond during his illustrious career behind the plate as catcher for the gottdamned Yankees (gag), Yogi was perhaps even better known for his malapropisms, self-contradictory sayings, and random nonsensical gibberish. To wit:

Here is a sampling of some of the most famous sayings that have been attributed to the Yankees icon.

Perhaps his most famous of all: “It ain’t over ’til it’s over.”

“Baseball is 90 percent mental. The other half is physical.”

On posterity: “I always thought that record would stand until it was broken.”

“You can observe a lot by watching.”

“If the world were perfect, it wouldn’t be.”

About a St. Louis restaurant: “No one goes there anymore. It’s too crowded.”

About the effect of the sun in left field in the old Yankee Stadium during late-season games: “It gets late early out there.”

About Bill Dickey: “He learned me all his experience.”

“If people don’t want to come to the ballpark, how are you going to stop them?”

“We made too many wrong mistakes.”

“Pie a la mode, with ice cream.”

“I wish I had an answer to that, because I’m tired of answering that question.”

“You tell the stupidest questions.”

“Never answer an anonymous letter.”

On the great Sandy Koufax: “I can see how he won 25 games. What I don’t understand is how he lost five.”

On lining up for a Spring Training drill: “Pair ’em up in threes.”

On the 1973 Mets: “We were overwhelming underdogs.”

The recording heard on the Yogi Berra Museum and Learning Center’s phone: “This message won’t be over ’til it’s done.”

“In baseball, you don’t know nothing.”

“I’m not going to buy my kids an encyclopedia. Let them walk to school like I did.”

“All pitchers are liars or crybabies.”

On his hitting approach: “I can’t think and hit at the same time.”

“He hits from both sides of the plate. He’s amphibious.”

“When you come to a fork in the road, take it.”

On economics: “A nickel ain’t worth a dime anymore.”

“Always go to other people’s funerals. Otherwise, they won’t come to yours.”

And last but certainly not least: “It’s deja vu all over again.”

Heh. THAT’S telling ’em, Yogi!

Just gotta append this great pic of Yogi from his Yankee days:

Taken during spring training in 1957, that one was. God bless you, Yogi Berra.

“Unprovoked”

Yeah right, you Jew-hating, Israel-baiting, Mullah-fellating dick with ears.

Trump Isn’t Starting a War, He’s Ending One
As of this writing, the United States and Israel have begun what I can only assume to be the first round of military strikes on Iran. I also assume that the eventual goal is regime change, effected by the United States, but driven by the Iranian people. And I’m not alone. Over the past few days, the so-called “think” tanks are falling all over themselves to be the first to prophesy a quagmire, a “trap,” a “forever war,” and Iraq 3.0.

The dregs at Foreign Policy took a break from clamoring for a post-American world order to demand we not bomb Iran precisely to more quickly usher in said order. At Powerline blog, John Hinderaker gleefully straddles the fence as only he can by declaring his hope that Trump bombs the mullahs with the goal of regime change… and in the same sentence, expresses doubt that this will be accomplished. And if you’re willing to waste the brain cells, you can guess what ol’ Tucker’s position on it is.

But the absolute worst take must be from John Daniel Davison over at The Federalist. John’s main point is that if we allegedly “obliterated” Iran’s nuclear abilities with Operation Midnight Hammer, than why do we need to now bomb Iran again to prevent them from acquiring nuclear capabilities?

Um, well, because Iran is trying to rebuild them. As we knew they would. And if we keep bombing only their nuclear facilities, they will simply keep rebuilding them until the next Democrat gets elected president and we stop sending bombs and start sending pallets of cash again. So there’s that.

John writes, “At a certain point, it begins to look like the Trump administration is fishing for a reason to strike Iran. Sorry, but that’s not good enough.”

Fishing for a reason?

I’ll give you a few reasons, John. You tell me if they’re “good enough.”

  1. On November 4, 1979, the Iranian government took 52 Americans hostage for 444 days.
  2. The Iranian government helped create, fund, and arm Hezbollah and Hamas.
  3. On April 18, 1983, Hezbollah bombed the American embassy in Beirut, killing 63 people.
  4. On October 23, 1983, Iranian-backed terrorists bombed the American and French barracks in Beirut, killing 307 people.
  5. Over the next decade, Iranian-backed terrorists hijacked several planes, including TWA flight 847, which resulted in the killing of an American sailor.
  6. On July 22, 1985, Hezbollah bombed a synagogue, a Jewish nursing home, and a kindergarten in Copenhagen.
  7. On March 17, 1992, Hezbollah bombed the Israeli embassy in Buenos Aires, killing 29 people.
  8. On July 18, 1994, Hezbollah bombed a Jewish community center in Buenos Aires, killing 85 people.
  9. On June 25, 1996, Iranian-backed terrorists bombed Khobar Towers, killing 19 American servicemen.
  10. Iran provided training and expertise to al-Qaeda to commit the 1998 embassy bombings

That’s just the first half; he has plenty more, all of ’em good. And even the full 20 the author lists are by no stretch all of ’em. Bottom line? Simply this.

To be sure, there is risk involved. To our soldiers. To the anti-regime Iranian civilians. To a postwar possibility that the regime survives intact. But there is greater risk in blowing this one golden opportunity to end this war once and for all, so that the next four generations of our soldiers don’t have to deal with it.

With our perfect hindsight, we can continue to fill our diapers with our unvanquishable anxieties about George Bush and Colin Powell and missing WMDs and losing the post-9/11 goodwill of the French and losing the hearts and minds of Afghan goatherds… and in the process, we would have given the ayatollahs another 47 years, with all the Democrat surrenders, pallets of cash, and worthless pieces of paper about nuclear disarmament that they will entail.

Trump chose not to do that. His decision is risky, but it carries the moral fortitude of being indisputably on the right side of history. The dice have been rolled. We can get behind our leader, our troops, and the fight for a world free from Islamic terrorism. Or we can go see what Michael Moore is up to.

In Trump’s decision to strike Iran, he hasn’t started a “forever war.” He’s attempting to end one. Nothing good would have c(o)me had we retreated. The Iranian-led war of terror against the West would have resume(d), more confident and more brazen. The world would be a worse place, and a lot more innocent people are going to die. That’s not an opinion. That’s an indisputable fact.

Indeed it is—ALL of it.

Update! Gratifying details.

Shanaka Anslem Perera ⚡ @shanaka86
They did not bomb Iran. They waited for Iran’s entire leadership to sit down in the same room and then they bombed Iran.

Months of intelligence. Thousands of hours of surveillance and signal intercepts. One variable: the moment the Supreme Leader, the President, and senior military command gathered in a single location at the same time.

That moment was 8:15 this morning. Daylight. Every previous Israeli strike on Iran came at night. June 2025 launched in darkness. October 2024 after midnight. Iran’s entire air defense doctrine is built around the assumption that Israel attacks in the dark. Israel attacked in broad daylight because the target was not infrastructure. The target was a meeting.

Reuters confirms strikes targeted Khamenei and Pezeshkian. CNN confirms months of joint US-Israeli planning. Israeli officials confirmed the strike hit the location where Iran’s top officials were gathered. Whether Khamenei was moved before the strike or extracted after is the most consequential unknown on the planet right now. If before, someone inside Tehran’s inner circle told Jerusalem when and where the meeting would happen. If after, the strikes hit the room and he survived. Both scenarios are catastrophic for the regime.

I’m all good wid dat.

By George, I think she’s got it!

The reliably-superb Titiana McGrath (that’s how she used to spell it way back when, it seems to have changed recently) lays some of her unique insight and wisdom on us dumbass plebes.

Communism is the only guarantee of human happiness. It has always worked wherever it has been tried. One need only consider the progressive reforms of Joseph Stalin in Russia in the mid-20th century. Those who refused to sign up to Stalin’s ideas tended to die young, which just proves that Communism saves lives.

Now that we’ve reached 2026, surely it’s time to try this system again. Our new era has already begun, with Zohran Mamdani taking over as Mayor of New York. For those who don’t know, Mamdani is a devout Muslim who has promised to make New York a “sanctuary city” for the LGBT+ community. It’s what the Prophet Mohammed would have wanted.

If it’s a choice between being warm or frigid, I know which I’d prefer

Some bigots have argued that homosexuality is incompatible with the Islamic faith. But in fact, homophobia is extremely rare in Muslim-majority countries. This is why there isn’t a single LGBT+ community centre in the whole of Afghanistan. Everyone is so tolerant that there is simply no need for them.

Communism is the philosophy of the masses. Whilst careerist right-wing politicians have wasted years studying for degrees in PPE at Oxford, all of the greatest left-wing leaders of history have been out there working in the real world. Nicolás Maduro was a bus driver. Nicolae Ceaușescu was a shoemaker’s apprentice. Mao Zedong was an assistant librarian. Zohran Mamdani was a rapper whose lyrics promoted intersectional social justice activism.

Who among us could possibly quibble with analysis as penetrating, as incandescently brilliant, as this?

Historical illiteracy: it’s a Thing

Okay, I gotta admit, this made me laugh.

Dunno if they’re supposed to resemble Zeros or not, but what they look more like to me is FW 190s, excepting the prop spinner. The accompanying textplanation:

Yes, it’s Bluto’s (John Belushi) now iconic gaffe in “Animal House” come true: “Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?” Those are German planes on the cover of Michael J. Clark’s history book for young readers about the sneak attack that brought the U.S. into World War II.

Just think about all of the careless, irresponsible boobs, including the author and the cover artist, who had to breach the ethical values of competence, diligence and respect for that book to be published and put on the market. How many must it have been? Then you can add to that List of Shame our pathetic, ruinous education system, which has produced such a nation of dolts that not even a humble secretary or passing clerk had the knowledge to point out, when they saw the book as it made its way through production, “Uh, aren’t those German planes?” Anyone who did, thus preventing this epic embarrassment, might have received a promotion or a bonus. Or at least someone would have bought him or her a nice lunch.

A history book? SRSLY?!? Just hilarity heaped upon hilarity, really, as far as the eye can see. I do believe this Clark feller’s cover artist probably needs to seek other employment for which he is better suited, lest all the pointing and laughing leave him disillusioned and depressed.

Sorry, but this isn’t nearly as impressive a qualification as she seems to think it is.

Democrat Oregon Governor Tina Kotek took to social media during Lesbian Visibility Week to tout her status as one of only two openly lesbian governors in U.S. history. In her message, Kotek praised Oregon’s “diversity” and identity politics-driven leadership, but it’s clear that her focus on identity over real issues highlights a growing trend in left-wing governance. While President Trump focused on policies that strengthen America, Kotek’s liberal agenda continues to prioritize divisive identity politics, leaving behind real solutions for her state.

Of course, and as usual. But hey, the important thing to remember here is that she’s a lesbian, amIright?

The 2020 “(s)election”: most fraudulent in world history?

Posted on      by     

Actually, it was so damned fraudulent there isn’t even a word in the English language—corrupt, crooked, fake, phony, bogus, bent, rigged, &c—strong enough to adequately describe how ridiculously fraudulent it was.

Providence has a nice sense of irony. Had Trump been president from 2021 to 2024, he could not have accomplished a scintilla of what he has already managed just a year into his second term. The four years he spent as a victim of the Biden administration’s round-the-clock deployment of lawfare – the preposterous indictments, the naked efforts to bankrupt and incarcerate him – all were “teachable moments” he would have missed had he not been made the focus of unhinged Democratic ire. I suspect that, when the dust settles, it will be shown that Trump did, in fact, win the 2020 election. But it is a good thing for the country that he had to wait four years before he took office.

To those who are impatient with this renewed attention to the 2020 election, I advert to the ending of my column here from November 5, 2025. Quoting the commentator Shipwreckedcrew, who posts on X and Substack under that username, I agreed that “the 47th President of the United States, now that he has the tools, has an obligation to examine the 2020 election with the Department of Justice if he concludes that the 46th President failed to do so out of the 46th President’s self-interest to not have his victory called into question.”

Trump, I noted, has so concluded. We are rapidly approaching the denouement of this drama.

Readers may also recall the scene from Hemingway’s The Sun Also Rises in which one character asks another how he went bankrupt. “Two ways,” was the answer. “Gradually, then suddenly.” I suspect that something similar is happening here.

A few days ago, the news from Fulton County was everywhere, but there was a certain nervousness or hesitation in the air. Hadn’t we already been here, done that? But then the floodgates started to open.

Why have Georgia election officials filed a court motion to take back the ballots seized by the FBI? No one wants to be called a “conspiracy theorist” or “election denier.” No one wants to be sued for libel, as was Rudy Giuliani. He raised questions about the election results in Georgia. He named names. That cost him $140-something million. I wonder whether that judgment will be revisited now?

Commenting on the tsunami of news crashing out from Georgia, the great Cleta Mitchell, who advised President Trump when he contested the Georgia election results, noted that on the morning of election day, November 4, 2020, Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger said Trump led by 103K votes with only 94K ballots left. “Four days later,” Mitchell noted:

[T]here were 300K more ballots, including 148K absentee ballots from Fulton County. That’s 25,535 more ballots than voters, more than double Biden’s margin. Over 133K ballot images were deleted. Zero of 148 Fulton County tabulators had the required tapes. Nearly 7K fictitious ballots remain certified, and no one investigated.

Then there is the news about Georgia Governor Brian Kemp. Grand jury testimony that was just unsealed revealed that Kemp told the chief of Georgia Bureau of Investigation not to investigation allegations of fraud in the 2020 election, Saying he was a “team player,” the official dropped the case.

The mask is being ripped off as I write. A Gestalt shift in The Narrative is underway. Wikipedia says that Cleta Mitchell “aided Donald Trump in his efforts to overturn the election results and pressure election officials to ‘find’ sufficient votes for him to win.” How long will it be before the site is forced to note instead that she aided the president in his efforts to get to the truth in Fulton County? What happened in Georgia is just one falling domino in the giant reversal that is taking place. A lot of reputedly “impossible” things are in the process of being revealed.

Yep, the formerly ubiquitous “Trump’s baseless charges” bleat is looking more and more like the absurd lie it always was, as time marches ever on. Unfortunately, the truth outing at last will be the only positive result; you can be absolutely certain that not one thing else will change a single iota, that after many encore performances, The Enemy (both Left and “Right”) will at last outdo even their 2020 “(s)election” dumbshow for sheer balls-out chutzpah.

You keep using that word, law-abiding

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."

—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
