Misery

Thy name is “shitlib.”


DT piles on:

Imagine the hours of fun. All that tutting and disapproval.

Yeppers…and the weeping, and the wailing, and the gnashing of teeth too. But then, as with their Mooselimb allies of convenience, that’s the only kind of “fun” Leftards truly grok.

A great American

In a pig’s eye.



Still boggles my mind, that the slippery, slimery scuzzbucket somehow managed to wriggle out from under a load of baggage like that and make a comeback the way he did. Props for that, I suppose.

The long and the short of it

Former Commie creep-o Peter Hitchens tells it like it is.


The longer version:


Yes, this revelation comes as no big surprise; sensible, sane sorts have known all along what the immivasion kerfuffle was really about. Still, it never hurts to be reminded now and then, so we can annoy the Left by dropping another Truth Bomb on their empty heads.

“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’.

It’s not that the Crackpot Right don’t know anything

It’s that so much of what they think they know just isn’t so.

The Paleosimian population has grown? Not too shabby for a people that doesn’t actually, y’know, exist, and never really did.

Update! Just had to throw in the money quote from the above-linked JPost article.

With the help of the media and Israel’s foes, the Palestinians’ claims to the Land of Israel became amplified and even accepted by a large number of people around the world – many, if not most, of whom do not know the first thing about the Middle East.

Yeppers. Then again, that’s true of damned near all of the Goosesteppin’ Left’s agenda, in every context.

In response to…

This lackwit drivel.


Is Joe Huffman’s no-bull blast of plain common sense.

Your “horrifying if you believe in the First Amendment” drivel is the exact cognitive blind spot these cells exploit…weaponizing free speech as a get-out-of-consequences card for those who piss on it with bullets and bombs.

Brandenburg v. Ohio carved it out decades ago:

protected speech stops cold at incitement to imminent lawless action that actually happens. They didn’t just talk; they executed.

The Constitution doesn’t shield arsonists, shooters, or terror enablers any more than it shields Al-Qaeda sympathizers handing out bomb manuals.

This verdict isn’t chilling dissent; it’s lethal accountability, the kind that deters the next cell of ideologically poisoned fuckwits from turning public facilities into kill zones.

So spare me your performative horror, you fucking idiot.

The jury saw the pathology for what it was. The FBI built the case on it. And the law cut them down.

Cry harder, sweetheart.

With this Parthian shot tacked on for good measure.

It is interesting this person believes the First Amendment protects the destruction of government property and shooting a police officer with an AR-15. They must have crap for brains. With that broad of scope for the First Amendment, just imagine what the Second Amendment must protect. Why, it must protect the use of artillery dropping HE on the U.S. Capital or some such thing.

Hey, I’m okay with that interpretation, myself.

They’re going to shit all over LOTR again

Gird your loins, John Ronald Reuel lovers.

If ‘Lord of the Rings’ Isn’t Quite Dead, This Guy Can Finish It Off
The Fellowship of the Ring — the opening chapter of Peter Jackson’s Lord of the Rings trilogy, one of the greatest achievements in movie history — turns 25 this December, and since then, Hollywood has inflicted one indignity after another on Tolkien’s masterpiece. The worst may be yet to come.

What’s it called when the greedy mining company takes the tailings from its strip mine and runs them through the smelter one more time with all the reckless abandon of Gollum diving after the One Ring into Mount Doom?

Ah, yes — it’s called The Lord of the Rings: Shadows of the Past, and lame-duck late-night host Stephen Colbert will co-write it with his son, screenwriter Peter McGee, for Jackson and Warner Bros, which now owns New Line. Variety reported late Tuesday that Colbert, “a vocal Tolkien fanatic,” and McGee will write a screenplay “from chapters of The Fellowship of the Ring that didn’t make it into Jackson’s 2001 adaptation.”

Or as the movie’s official logline put it, “Fourteen years after the passing of Frodo, Sam, Merry, and Pippin set out to retrace the first steps of their adventure. Meanwhile, Sam’s daughter, Elanor, has discovered a long-buried secret and is determined to uncover why the War of the Ring was very nearly lost before it even began.”

So Shadows of the Past won’t really take us back to 2001 and fill in the missing parts of Fellowship. It will take aging versions of Frodo, Sam, Merry, and Pippin and saddle them with an all-new girl-boss.

Fan reactions on X range from “I’d rather jump into the fires of Mount Doom” to “What is this need to mar great artistic works with slop fan fiction manglings?” Despite my best time-wasting efforts, I was unable to find a single positive response.

Maybe Colbert is a vocal enough Tolkien fan to make this work. Or maybe Jackson and his crew should do what Saruman couldn’t, and just leave the Shire alone.

A big, fat AAAAA-fargin’-MEN to that, Steve.

Update! Ace puts in his two cents:

Disaster! Warner Bros. Hires New Writer for Lord of the Rings Mid-quel: Steven Colbert
—Disinformation Expert Ace

Good heavens, what an absolute disaster.

We have the Hunt for Gollum coming up, directed by Andy Serkis, who just remade Animal Farm as a pro-socialism, anti-capitalism message movie.

And now Warner Bros. has hired this absolute assclown to write a draft of what is being called “The Shadow of the Past.” The concept of the movie is not terrible: A good part of Fellowship of the Ring was cut out of the Lord of the Rings movies because of time restrictions and also because it contains the character Tom Bombadil, who is just a big ball of plot questions. Like, given that he has godlike power that makes even Gandalf and Elrond envious, why doesn’t he just take the ring? (Tolkien’s lame answer: Because he’s flighty and would eventually just forget about the ring and let it go back to Sauron.)

The reason this section of the book is worth possibly making a movie about is the creepy, scary encounter with the Barrow Wights. If you know, you know.

So Colbert, I guess, pitched the idea of doing these four chapters of LOTR as a stand-alone mid-quel movie.

Couldn’t they just have said “Yes that’s an okay idea, here’s $20,000 as a finder’s fee, now fuck off”?

Sure they could’ve. But being shitlibs, they’d have never, ever, dreamed of doing such a thing, thereby offering tacit insult to one of their most iconic Trump-deranged heroes.

Being themselves

Just “liberal” asswarts, doing what they do best.

It Gets Much Worse: Code Pink’s Cuban Commie Vacation Hits a New Low
On Sunday, I wrote about how Code Pink and a bunch of other worthless commies went to Cuba after they put together the “Nuestra América Convoy,” which describes itself as a humanitarian group but is really just some sort of anti-Trump, pro-Cuban regime operation. Cuba’s “president,” Miguel Díaz-Canel, rolled out the red carpet at a convention center, and then the group stayed in a five-star well-lit hotel. I say “well-lit’ because no one else on the island has power, yet oddly this hotel and convention center do.

The convoy also threw themselves a little concert — again, with plenty of electricity to go around — but this wasn’t some sort of opportunity for them to raise money for the Cuban people they claimed they were heading down to support or anything. It was an opportunity to shout things like “F*ck Trump” and “Free Palestine.” I have no data on this, but I’m guessing most Cubans don’t give two cents about Palestine at the moment. They just want electricity so they can eat, study, have water, and keep their sick relatives alive in hospitals.

Call it poverty porn. Call it a communist safari or theme park. Call it the poor people petting zoo. I’ve heard every name under the sun from the Cuban exile community here in the United States. The only thing I can think to call it is one of the most grotesque, exploitative spectacles I’ve ever witnessed.

First up is this guy Hasan Piker. I was not familiar with him until he decided to show up in Cuba and not only exploit the situation on the ground there, but broadcast his little podcast or livestream or whatever it is he does from the fancy hotel where he’s staying. I have since learned more about him and not just the fact that if you look up the term “punchable face,” you’ll probably find his picture somewhere.

The Marxist Piker was born in New Jersey to Turkish parents, but raised as a Muslim in Turkey. He’s 34 years old, he’s a far left influencer, and he has one of the most subscribed-to channels on Twitch. He’s a big Bernie Sanders fan, yet, like his idol, he’s worth millions and just wants socialism for everyone else. He was literally wearing a $700 shirt while he walked the streets. It would take the average working Cuban years to buy something like that.

He also apparently abuses his dog.

So, as I said, this dude decided to waste power by broadcasting from his Cuban hotel on Sunday and letting us all know that the Cuban people simply love having no food or power.

Allow me to share with you one of the most ignorant, privileged quotes I’ve ever heard come out of someone’s mouth:

And he does that thing, too. He’s spot-on as well when he says this Piker twatwaffle has the most eminently punchable face EVAR.


See? Pluperfect weedy, scraggly-ass cuntface, desperately in need of a solid right cross, woontchasay? The article carries on from there, and it’s as thorough a chronicle of douchebag “liberal” cluelessness, arrogance, and self-serving, entitled nastiness as you’ll ever see.

Update! Having approvingly mentioned Churchill earlier and all, I must note that Glenn has put the cherry on top:

“Socialism,” the great Winston Churchill said, “is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy.”

“Its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.”

In that last part, the prime minster got it wrong.

There’s misery aplenty in any socialist system, but in no sense is that misery shared equally.

Quite the contrary: Members of the ruling class in places like Cuba, North Korea or the old Soviet Union live wildly privileged lives compared to the “workers and peasants” over whom they rule.

That was illustrated this weekend — partly as tragedy, partly as farce — when a delegation of leftists from the anti-American Code Pink and other groups visited Havana to support Cuba’s totalitarian regime.

Plenty more yet, every word of it barbed like a porcupine’s back, and rightly so. Sad thing is, these shitlib drooltards will remain utterly oblivious to their own despicable patronization of Their Inferiors till their dying day, never once imagining themselves as anything other than courageous, generous heroes giving freely of themselves so as to help out the Little Guy. If somebody DID give that Piker twerp a well-deserved poke in the snoot one fine day, he’d never stop being flummoxed at why anybody would want to do such a thing to a swell guy like himself.

The final, fatal plunge

T’uqr takes the last step, goes full Nazi.

Tucker Carlson calls pro-Hitler Oswald Mosley one of Britain’s ‘great war heroes’
Mosley’s only crime, Carlson claimed, was being the leader of the ‘opposition party’ to Churchill

Controversial US podcaster Tucker Carlson has described Oswald Mosley, the pro-Hitler leader of Britain’s short-lived fascist party during the Second World War, as one of the country’s “great war heroes”.

Carlson further claimed this week that Mosley’s “only crime was being the opposition” to Winston Churchill, and that was why he was arrested.

Churchill, according to Carlson, was a person we are “required to deify”, but in fact was a figure who “presided over the imprisonment of his opposition party during the entire length of the war, and their families, and their wives.”

About Mosley and his party, he continued: “Their crime was being the opposition party and being disloyal and unpatriotic, they weren’t.”

Speaking in a video interspersed with images of Mosley doing fascist salutes, Carlson said: “The opposition party was led by a First World War war hero who fought not just as you know, a pilot in the sky but and in the trenches. [He was] one of the great war heroes, former member of parliament, the country ever produced. And he and his compatriots and their wives were interned without charges by Winston Churchill for the duration of the war.”

Mosley was not fact the then-leader of the opposition but founder of the British Union of Fascists (BUF), a minor party that never performed well in elections even at its height in the mid 1930s, and never won a seat in Parliament.

As per usual, T’uqr gets his timelines all jumbled up, commits several patent errors of fact without offering to correct himself, and just generally stomps around beclowning himself in most spectacular fashion.

Mosley was a hapless fascist boob; Churchill was a masterful orator, a bit too much the political animal for my tastes, but ultimately and incontrovertibly (however strenuously the Crackpot Right might wish it were otherwise) a great wartime Prime Minister who held Britain together and saw the England he so deeply loved through its darkest, most desperate hours.

As for T’uqr, he badly needs to do himself a YUUUUGE favor and just keep his mouth shut.

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.

Islamophobia is real

And, at least according to the theory propounded by the always-insightful Robert Spencer, that’s a good thing (bold mine, needless to say).

After Four Jihad Attacks in Two Weeks, Guess What It’s the International Day to Combat
Sunday, March 15 is the International Day to Combat Islamophobia, and the day couldn’t possibly have come at a better time. It looks as if it was planned this year specifically in order to demonstrate the fact that “Islamophobia” is a spurious propaganda concept designed to intimidate people into thinking it’s wrong to stand against jihad violence and Sharia oppression of women.

It’s the best possible time because there have been four jihad attacks in the U.S. in the last two weeks, demonstrating in the most vivid and indelible way possible that criticism of Islam is not only not a manifestation of “hatred” or “bigotry,” much less “racism,” but a healthy manifestation of a society’s will to survive.

Ladies and chunnelmens, those bells, horns, and wildly flashing lights mean that we have ourselves a WINNAH! Onwards.

The latest lessons in the dangers of “Islamophobia” propaganda came on March 1, when a Muslim migrant opened fire in a bar in Austin, Texas, killing three people and injuring 13 others. Then on March 7, two pro-ISIS Muslims screaming “Allah akbar” threw a homemade shrapnel bomb at a crowd of pro-freedom protesters in New York City. Five days after that came two jihad attacks in one day, when a Muslim crashed his car into a Michigan synagogue and opened fire, while another Muslim started shooting at Old Dominion University, murdering one person and injuring two others.

After all this, UN Secretary-General António Guterres wrote late on Saturday evening, “Islamophobia” Day Eve: “Muslims worldwide often face institutional discrimination, socio-economic exclusion, biased immigration policies & unwarranted surveillance & profiling. This International Day to Combat Islamophobia, let’s re-commit to the equality, human rights & dignity of every person, no matter their faith.”

Guterres’ statement was more noteworthy for what it didn’t say than for what it did. He had nary a word to say about the four recent jihad attacks in the U.S., or about any jihad attacks anywhere. In fact, for Guterres and other “Islamophobia” propagandists, there are no jihad attacks. Those who commit jihad attacks are by the very act of doing so rendered non-Muslim.

And so New York Gov. Kathy Hochul wrote on Sunday, barely more than a week after a couple of Islamic State jihadis tried to commit mass murder for Allah in New York City: “On this International Day to Combat Islamophobia, and at a time when fear and division are rising in many places, New York stands firm: Hate has no home here. Muslim New Yorkers strengthen our communities every day, and we will always stand together against Islamophobia.

Oh, I’m sure. Too bad you don’t seem to give much of a shit about standing together against Pisslamic terrorism—not even in NYC, which says nothing whatsoever flattering about the mouthbreathing chowderheads who persist in residing in the crumbling hellhole.

Update! Absotively, posilutely related, from the incomparable Mark Steyn.

The Ground We Surrendered
Alas, very few people are really “conservative”, which is why so little has been conserved – up to and including, ultimately, the continuing existence of the nation-states of the west. The killer of Brandon Shah checks all Senator Simpleton’s boxes – as, indeed, the killer of those poor Southport schoolgirls checks all Nigel Farage’s. Mohamed Jalloh emigrated from Sierra Leone and became a naturalised US citizen. An alumnus of Old Dominion, he subsequently joined the Virginia National Guard, so he’s not only a brother-in-arms of Colonel Shah but also one of those “seventy-two Virginians” we used to hear so much about.

Unfortunately, Mr Jalloh was “compelled to leave the US military” after he was discovered to be a big fan of Anwar al-Awlaki, the late “spiritual advisor” to the Fort Hood killer, three of the 9/11 hijackers and many others – oh, and also the author of the popular book Forty-Four Ways to Support Jihad. Mr Jalloh expressed his desire to pull off his own Fort Hood-style mass murder, and shared his admiration for the 2015 Chattanooga attack, when a gunperson killed four Marines and a sailor.

So the US military gave him an “honorable” discharge, rather than – as healthier societies would – a blindfold and cigarette. Like Ted (Cruz, in a Xweet Steyn embedded, but I did not—M) says: “Legal? Good. Illegal? Bad.” The senator is, in my limited experience, a pleasant enough fellow, but an unserious man who will cost you your country.

Thus, the year after departing the National Guard – 2016 – the legal and good Honorable Mr Jalloh was arrested for attempting to provide material support to Isis. In 2017 the prosecution agreed a plea bargain and asked for twenty years – so that would be 2037, right? But the Bush-appointed judge sentenced him to eleven, plus five years “supervised release” – which would bring us to …2033, is it? Also he was ordered to participate in a “computer monitoring program”.

But Mr Jalloh was out in 2024 and fortunately the federal probation office that supervised his “supervised release” supervises with such a light touch that Mr Jalloh was free to stroll into Colonel Shah’s classroom and kill him. Even the “computer monitoring program” does not – surprise! – appear to have worked.

Lest we forget, it was Steyn who encapsulated the bottom-line issue with the Pussified West’s supine (non-)response to jihadi terrorism, saying in essence: Why must it always be US who is expected to adjust OUR behavior, OUR lifestyles, even our physical environment, to accommodate these bloodthirsty troglodytes? THEY are the ones stabbing, bombing, gang-raping, and mass-murdering their way through contemporary Western Civ; THEY are the ones who steadfastly refuse to depart from their 10th-century beliefs and embrace modernity; THEY are the ones who have successfully overrun most of what once was the UK and Western Europe, remaking entire nations and/or cultures to suit their own ideology of conquest, brutality, and what was referred to in A Clockwork Orange as a bit of the old ultra-violence. Doesn’t all this sorta suggest that THEY’RE the ones who ought to be adjusting themselves to accommodate the rest of US?!?

Updated update! Bless their hearts, the Maori ain’t having any, thanks.


PREACH it, brothers!

Yet another epic fail

From what I like to call the Crackpot Right.

“Better be at the front of the etc”? DUDE, hate to have to tell ya and all, but as the primary and preferred target of fanatical Mooselimb murderers everywhere, the Jews have been at the front of your notional “line” ever since the genesis of Pisslam in the late 6th century (!!)—nonstop, without hope of surcease, unless and until the Muzzrats are finally, firmly, and irrevocably brought to heel.

Now go toddle on off someplace else and boohoohoo about the loss of your beloved Ayatollah Khamenei, whydon’tcha.

The hobgoblin of little minds

Not “a foolish consistency,” as Emerson would have it, but good old-fashioned cognitive dissonance.

THE COMPLETE (AND GROWING) LIST OF THINGS THE LEFT SIMULTANEOUSLY BELIEVES
I am a science teacher. In science, I teach my students that a hypothesis that contradicts itself is invalid.

So I made a list.

THE COMPLETE (AND GROWING) LIST OF THINGS THE LEFT SIMULTANEOUSLY BELIEVES

Buckle up. This one is going to take a minute.

  1. “My body, my choice”… but you MUST get a vaccine or lose your job, your ability to travel, and your right to eat inside a restaurant. Both things. At the same time.
  2. “Believe all women”… unless the woman is Tara Reade, Juanita Broaddrick, or Paula Jones. Those women apparently came with an asterisk nobody mentioned.
  3. “Tax the rich”… said by a woman worth $120 million (Pelosi), a man worth $9 million (Schumer), and a senator who owns three houses (Bernie) — all while their stock portfolios grow on insider access the rest of us will never have.
  4. They are outraged — OUTRAGED — about billionaires having too much power… and then accept $1.6 billion from George Soros without blinking. Quinn’s Law #7: it is different when you are a Democrat.
  5. “Defund the police”… and then hire private security for themselves. I am not making that up. Multiple city council members who voted to defund their police departments had private, taxpayer-funded security at the same time. You literally cannot invent this.
  6. “No one is above the law”… until a federal judge in Wisconsin helped a criminal evade ICE agents and half the party defended her. Judge Hannah Dugan. Look it up. Suddenly “no one is above the law” had an exemption for people who agree with them.
  7. “Science is real”… but a biological male who identifies as a woman is medically, biologically, and athletically identical to a biological female. Just go ahead and ignore the entire fields of endocrinology, genetics, and sports medicine while you are at it.
  8. “We support the working class”… and then they vote AGAINST no tax on tips. And no tax on overtime. Every. Single. Democrat. Voted against the One Big Beautiful Bill. The party of workers apparently does not want workers keeping their own money.
  9. “We need more gun control to stop violence”… but releasing violent criminals back onto the street with zero bail is compassion. The criminal is not the problem. The gun on the shelf of the law-abiding citizen is the problem. I need someone to explain that logic to me using small words.
  10. They want a $20 minimum wage to help the poor worker… and then they celebrate the illegal immigration system that lets employers pay $6 an hour in cash with zero benefits to people who cannot say anything without being deported. That is not progressive. That is the economic model of the antebellum South with extra steps.

Yep, “Extra steps” for sure…all of which of necessity will involve more government, less freedom, and higher taxes.

Lots, lots, LOTS more to this one yet. Go ye and read of it, for IT. IS. GOOD.

Punks pack it in

As predictable as yesterday’s sunrise, these twatwaffles.

Punk Fail? Rockers Cancel Festival Over Trump
Jello Biafra leads wave of rockers pulling out of tour over tepid Trump ties

Tolerance is the new counter-culture. And it’s in short supply in the current punk scene.

Now, a gaggle of punk bands planning to tour the country is calling it quits. The reason why is so very, very 2026.

It’s all about Trump Derangement Syndrome.

No, we can’t all get along, apparently, and the Punk in the Park tour’s demise has little to do with the bands in question.

Denver’s far-Left Westword shared the ugly reason for the cancellation – “continued fallout over the organizer’s recently exposed political leanings, particularly financially supporting Trump’s second presidential campaign…”

Cameron Collins is the owner of the tour’s parent company, the Dallas-based Brew Ha Ha Productions. Collins contributed to President Trump’s most recent presidential campaign.

That was enough to stop the tour cold.

Dropkick Murphys was among the acts to bail on the tour. The group’s anti-Trump bona fides are clear, and the members are planning to play an anti-ICE concert in Minneapolis on March 6.

The Dead Kennedys planned to keep some of its earlier tour commitments for fans who already bought tickets. They still vowed not to perform at future shows due to Collins’ contributions.

That wasn’t enough for its former lead signer, Jello Biafra. The punk rocker slammed his former bandmates for not dropping out of every tour event.

Period.

Gee, how very moral of these über-sanctimonious twerps. I’m quite impressed with their courageous, selfless stand against blackest E-ville™.

Via Stephen Green, who quips: GET OVER YOURSELVES.

SNEK!!!

According to Glenn, Trump just did it again.

Cutting Off the Head of the Snake
Or maybe the Gordian Knot

November 4, 1979 — almost 47 years ago — Iran seized the American embassy in Tehran and held its staff hostage. Ever since then, American presidents have struggled with what to do.

Jimmy Carter temporized for many months, even as ABC’s newly created Nightline — a nighttime news show created specially to cover the hostage crisis — opened every night with “America held hostage, day XXX.” His wife, First Lady Rosalynn Carter, finally prodded him to do something. The “something” turned out to be a shambolic rescue mission that ended in disaster.

President Reagan intimidated the mullahs a bit, but never seriously retaliated for the Beirut barracks bombing that killed over 200 Marines along with over a score of other service personnel. George H.W. Bush invaded Iraq but left the mullahs largely alone. Bill Clinton did nothing of substance. George W. Bush had a chance to bring the Iranians to heel after the conquest of Iraq, but inexplicably failed to press his advantage. Barack Obama was, basically, complicit in their nuclear program, to the point of famously sending them pallets of cash totaling over a billion dollars.

President Trump, on the other hand, killed General Soleimani and told other Iranian leaders that they could be next. And now they are next.

So what have we learned, and what’s likely to happen in the future?

Well, for one thing, we’ve learned that there is no atrocity so abominable, no adversary so bloodyminded and vicious, no act of war so blatant and brazen that the shitlib Left won’t leap in all a-frothing to scold the US about daring to react in any fashion more bellicose than rolling over, showing our (yellow) bellies, and pissing all over ourselves as we whimper piteously for mercy.

Additionally, we’ve learned that every attack launched by us Ugly Amerikkkan H8888rrzzs© in response to provocation, however dire, shall be decried as “unprovoked,” “disproportionate,” “dangerous,” and/or “destabilizing.”

In sum, then, we’ve learned that:

  • Amerikkka, come Hell or high water, is always and forever wrong
  • Amerikkka will always and forever be the bad guy, deserving of all blame no matter what; ie, we are the big, scary monster underneath every kid’s bed
  • The US should never be thought of as “the world’s policeman,” “the world’s breadbasket,” or “the defender of the Free World,” but rather as “the world’s whipping boy”
  • Likewise, the US is to be presumed guilty no matter what, in all situations and contexts
  • Words like “genocide,” “apartheid,” “greed,” and “oppressive” apply strictly and exclusively to the US alone, no one else

There. Not by any means comprehensive, mind, but enough to be going on with just the same. Taken for all in all, an addendum to Mike’s Iron Law #1,246 has been deemed necessary. “What’s likely to happen in the future?” More of the same, alas, for just as long as Real American Normals remain content to put up with this tired shit, and not a moment longer.

As time marches ever on, it begins to look as if it will take exterminating no fewer than half to two-thirds of them before the rest of the sewer rats get the message and back the fuck off, so emboldened have we allowed them to become.

Update! Too bad, so sad.


Cry me a river, Muzzrat swine. Happily, by assuming room temperature Khamenei has now become a good Ayatollah.

Updated update! France could use more Trump and a lot less Macron.

Cheese-Eating Surrender Monkeys Come Out for the Islamic Republic of Iran
After the U.S./Israeli strikes on the Islamic Republic of Iran began early Saturday morning, the far-left government of Canada offered tepid support for the strikes, while the government of Saudi Arabia, indignant after an Iranian strike against a U.S. base inside the kingdom, said that it would join in on striking Iran. So far, so good.

Emmanuel Macron’s France, however, had a markedly different reaction. Several hours after the strikes began, Macron wrote:

The outbreak of war between the United States, Israel, and Iran carries grave consequences for international peace and security.

Notice that he says nothing whatsoever about the yearning of the Iranian people for freedom after suffering 47 years of the Islamic regime’s bloodthirsty repression.

In this decisive moment, all measures are being taken to ensure the security of the national territory and that of our compatriots, as well as our interests in the Middle East.

France also stands ready to deploy the necessary resources to protect its closest partners at their request.

The ongoing escalation is dangerous for all. It must stop. The Iranian regime must understand that it no longer has any option but to engage in good-faith negotiations to end its nuclear and ballistic programs, as well as its actions of regional destabilization. This is absolutely essential to the security of all in the Middle East.

Macron here assumes that the Iranian Islamic regime will remain in power.

That’s because if it were up to his weak ass, it would—forever and ever, amen.

Nevertheless, he plows on:

The Iranian people must also be able to build their future freely. The massacres perpetrated by the Islamic regime disqualify it and require that the voice be given back to the people. The sooner, the better.

This is inconsistent, as he just called upon the Iranian regime to “engage in good-faith negotiations.” Now he says that it has been disqualified, and that he wants the Iranian people to have a voice. Great, but how does he envision their getting that voice, if he thinks that “the ongoing escalation is dangerous for all” and “must stop”? Macron offers no way forward. He is clearly just hoping that whichever side wins will think he was supporting it all along.

Well, of course he is. He’s the pluperfect ProPol: all things to all people at all times, no matter what. He talks a lot, but says nothing of any real import. When the final bell sounds, he’ll step up to the podium, beam a gleaming, toothy smile into the camera lenses, make a rousing little speech extolling his myriad virtues—foresightedness, courage, unswerving dedication to principle, plainspoken integrity, and so forth, none of which he possesses to any noticeable degree—shake the important hands, and then move on to the next Media Availability.

Overcome with disgust, Spencer spits:

None of this can be made to make sense. It is just the dissembling of a politician who wants to appear strong when he is weak, decisive when he cannot make up his mind, and on the side of his Western allies while not alienating his friends and business partners in Tehran.

Oh, it makes sense all right. It stinks to high Heaven; it’s self-serving as all Hell, sure. It’s despicable, certainly, and says nothing whatever complimentary about the people of France, that they would countenance such an obvious bargain-basement s’faccim as the “leader” of their once-proud Republic. But what it also happens to be is perfectly typical of his foul ilk.

As my biker friends used to say, Macron is so low he’d crawl over his dead sister to fuck his own mother. Which, y’know, is pretty dadgum low if you ask me.

Notable Quotes

"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
