Swalwell: "We're Gonna Bury [Republicans} Below The Capitol"

 

Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) went completely off the rails during a recent appearance on CNN Newsroom. Speaking about President Trump’s decision to send the National Guard to Washington, D.C., the erstwhile Fangbanger said of Republicans, “When they go low, we’re gonna bury them below the Capitol. That’s what we’re gonna do, because this is about protecting democracy.” Will Swalwell and the Democrats dig so deep that they’ll make it to China?

So, we have the former head of the FBI posting “86 47” on Instagram earlier this summer-- and now Swalwell threatening to bury Republicans under the Capitol. Speaking of going low. Really low. Incredible chutzpah and hypocrisy. Then again, many of today’s Democrats seem utterly unaware of how their own actions and words appear, juxtaposed to those of their political opponents. And reality.

What if Trump had put the message “86 44” on social media, perhaps Truth Social? Might the mainstream media have gone bananas? You think? What if a Republican representative had gone on television to state that Republicans were going to bury Democrats under the Capitol? I’m guessing the mainstream media might have given the story more than a passing mention.

There can never be equal justice until there is real accountability for Democrats’ increasingly unhinged and hostile words and actions. There can never be true confidence in, and respect for, the rule of law-- and indeed America herself—if BLM and Antifa are allowed to lay waste to our cities and Trump supporters aren’t even allowed to wear MAGA hats in public without being harassed.

There are still some decent, if misguided, folks out there who vote for Democrats. I don’t like to brand all of them as “deplorables.” I know some who are very fine people. But many of the party’s leaders—and many of those in the hyper-progressive groups that now form the party’s base—are deranged and dangerous lunatics bent on destruction. Destruction of Trump and his supporters…and indeed all political opposition. Destruction of traditional mores. Destruction of cities, history, and personal responsibility. Destruction of our inherent freedoms. Destruction of the Judeo-Christian work ethic. Destruction of Capitalism. Destruction of the Constitution… and societal bonds. Destruction of America.

All of this is the opposite of “preserving democracy.” And they know it. Which makes it even more sinister.

Democrats still hold up “Jan. 6” as one of the darkest days in American history, a day when Trump supporters dared to stroll through the Capitol in protest of an election they firmly beloved was stolen. (One might even say they believed they were doing this to preserve democracy.)

And now Democrats like Swalwell want to bury them under it.

Soviet leader Nikita Khruschev once stated (of the relationship between communist nations and capitalist ones): “We will bury you!”

How did that work out for him, Swalwell?

If there is a God in heaven, Swalwell and his ilk will be left to molder in the dustbin of history.

James Comey Puts Up Unhinged Instagram Post Targeting trump

 

Disgraced former FBI Director James Comey recently trashed President Trump in a 5-minute rant posted to his Substack account. In it, Comey bizarrely stated that pop singer Taylor Swift helps him deal with the mean old Orange Man. A few excerpts from the lengthy and unhinged diatribe:

Taylor Swift has grown up with my family and provided us a soundtrack, really, as we’ve grown ourselves and learned and adapted and dealt with adversity and celebration. She had songs for all of it.”

“I don’t want us to become like Trump and his followers. There are far more decent, honest, kind people in America than there are mean jerks.”

“There’s a stunning coarseness and ugliness in the Republican Party today. It’s upsetting, but it’s also a minority of America. On the whole, we aren’t like that, and we don’t like that.” 

“And last year, she urged Americans not to make the serious mistake of electing him. Of course, we’re now living with the consequences of that mistake.”

“At my second Taylor Swift concert in Hartford, Connecticut, 14 years ago this summer, she sang a song about this topic, asking: Why you gotta be so mean?”

Comey is not a deep thinker. Based on this immature harangue, he seems more like an ill-informed and star-struck teenager than a former head of the FBI. One who has it in for a more accomplished peer.

The Comey-led FBI let several known radicals and thugs go, including the Boston Bomber. It spied on innocent Americans and allowed Hillary Clinton and her aides to destroy their laptops even as it granted them immunity despite her egregious handling of classified material. Comey has long been a crazed never-Trumper.

And Comey posted a picture on Instagram of “86 47” written in shells on a beach, an obvious wish for President Trump to be assassinated, accompanied by the words, “Cool shell formation on my beach walk.” There is a far greater chance that a monkey with a typewriter could, given enough time, accidentally produce “Hamlet,” or “War and Peace” in their entirety than that a bunch of seashells should wash up on shore and create a perfectly formed “86 47” message, consistently gapped with a space between 86 and 47. (86 means eliminate or kill, Trump 2.0 is the 47th president. There is no other possible meaning.)

Comey is a mentally ill monster who should be in counseling, treatment, or jail —likely all of the above.

The following is my rant against Comey, utilizing numerous Taylor Swift song titles. See how many you can name!  

Here’s hoping it’s a Cruel Summer for Comey. As the allegations against him mount, he should not be allowed to just Shake it Off. His rant is So High School, his Love Story with Swift was never going to come to fruition in his Wildest Dreams. Comey is an Anti-Hero and Karma is a bitch.

Comey, I Knew You Were Trouble when you exhibited Bad Blood towards President Trump. I knew it All Too Well. But it’s August, and You Need to Calm Down. Your legal troubles may be a Delicate matter that could go Down Bad, but that has nothing to do with ME! I know you were Enchanted with Peter Strzok and Lisa Page, but Don’t Blame Me. Blame that Blank Space where your Brain and soul should be.

(18 Swift song titles were embedded in the previous two paragraphs for those of you keeping score.)

Perhaps Comey is just shell-shocked.

More "Pride" Months Needed ASAP!

 

With the end of Pride Month (June, for those of you who just returned from a different planet), we turn to the next major month-long celebration seemingly acknowledged by every nation, group, organization, and person on the face of the earth…and find that there isn’t one. That must quickly be rectified, though perhaps not in the manner of which you may be thinking.

I propose that August should henceforth be PROUD! of our PRIDE! Month, as a significant percentage of the LGBTQ Community seems to be inordinately, in-your-face proud of both their sexual proclivities and their pride as regards same. No other group, no matter their beliefs or deeds, seems to be anywhere near as proud of themselves as gays, lesbians, and transgenders. (“August: so proud it’s overflowing.”)

Why is it that just those in the LGBTQ community get to show off their prodigious pride? What about the rest of us? Might not the entirety of, say, September be set aside to worship those who are proud of their greed? We could celebrate those in Congress making about $175,000 a year who have multiple houses and a net worth of tens-- or hundreds-- of millions of dollars……and an insatiable hunger for power. What about the rest of the year? Let’s have a look, shall we?

October: Wrath Month. A whole month of reveling in all things angry and violent!

November: Lust Month. Take pride in your lasciviousness. Crave another? Violence? A bong hit? This month is for you!

December: Envy Month. Ever felt that you’ve been wronged because you don’t own a Lamborghini Countach and a seaside mansion and beach house? Even though you don’t have a job and play Grand Theft Auto V all day and night while clad in your pajamas? Covet your neighbor’s wife, manservant, or sprinkler system? This is your time! And those of you who didn’t get the Christmas present you wanted-- and so richly deserved-- can play along, too.

January: Gluttony Month. Do you supersize your fast-food orders on a daily basis? Do you ask for fries with your salad or daily multi-vitamin? Do you think “Big Gulp” soft drinks are small beverages? Do you smoke so much “weed” that you’ve forgotten to get up from the couch for days on end? 31 days in tribute to you!

February: Sloth Month. Are you too lazy to change the channel? With the remote? Or change your clothes every week? Did you plan to take a shower last month but didn’t get around to it? Let’s use the shortest month for lauding everything you don’t do! For four straight weeks! You deserve it, baby!

That leaves March, April, and May. Some might think that such things as prudence, justice, temperance, courage, faith, hope, or charity might be honored, but they’d be mistaken. Those things—and the backward prudes who believe in them—are, like, sooo yesterday!

March: It’s Albino Eskimo Month!

April: Dedicated to celebrating pedophilic mulatto Pacific Islanders!

May: Is all about touting Capricorn accountants who were born on Thursdays! It is your month—and your world…we just live in it.

The rest of us fervently hope you are half as proud of yourselves as we are of you!

Happy Pride! everyone!

{The particularly astute among you may have noticed that July was omitted from this list. Some of us would like to have that month reserved for celebrating and honoring our pride in America. But we know that progressives would find that controversial, “problematic,” or offensive. So we’ll keep that our little secret. Until it’s safe to come out of the closet.]

"Democrat" Becoming Synonymous With Criminality, Anti-Americanism

 

There is no other way to say it: today’s Democrats have a love-affair with criminals, violence, and vulgarity. Thus they clearly favor illegal immigrants over citizens, criminals over the law-abiding, and chaos over the Constitution. The examples are legion, inexhaustible. To wit:

The man charged with assaulting a U.S. Customs and Border Protection agent with a Subway sandwich is now a former DOJ employee, an ex-Swamp dweller.

Hunter Biden recently claimed that Melania Trump met her husband through Jeffrey Epstein. Hunter dismissed First Lady Melania Trump’s demand for an apology for his statements linking the former super model to Jeffrey Epstein. Melania’s lawyers promptly persuaded the Daily Beast, who published the accusation, to post a retraction. Her attorneys also threatened Hunter Biden with a $1 billion defamation lawsuit if he did not retract his statements linking her to the notorious pedophile. When one of the First Lady’s attorneys demanded that Hunter retract the statement and apologize, the smartest man Joe Biden ever knew replied: “F*ck that! That’s not gonna happen” on a Channel 5 YouTube video.

Speaking of Daily Beasts, WCBD reported that 53-year-old William “Mullins” McLeod, a Democrat candidate for governor of South Carolina, was arrested on May 15 after he was found “yelling at the top of his lungs” while walking in downtown Charleston. Wearing only underwear and shoes. The Charleston Police Department recently released a remarkable one-hour-long video of the arrest, in which McLeod states, “I’m one of the most just humans to ever walk this soil,” and adds, “I’m Superman, godd*mn it!” Delusions of adequacy mindful of a slew of Democrats, from Barack Hussein Obama to Corey “Spartacus” Booker. McLeod even threatened current and former South Carolina GOP politicians, at one point yelling of South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson, “I’m gonna kick your f**king teeth in!” (It’s extremely likely that McLeod was under the influence of a narcotic or other drug, but that does nothing to excuse his actions.) That perfectly sums up many in today’s Democrat party: expletive-spewing would-be pseudo-gods. More proof that what is called “liberalism” today is a mental illness.

Speaking of mental illness, many in the ever-so-tolerant Left also wigged out after a CNN story on controversial pastor Doug Wilson, of Christ Church in Moscow, Idaho. Pastor Wilson spoke of the story-- and its aftermath-- on a video recently posted on YouTube. The church has views that many of us would find old-fashioned at best, but the vitriol subsequently directed at Wilson and his church was stunning. The pastor himself was gracious in his remarks on the CNN story itself, while chronicling the over-the-top hatred of its viewers. Wilson stated that “They filled up comment threads with vitriol. They swarmed the phone lines to give our church secretary a boatload of obscene messages to delete. They subscribed us to porn sites.” Care to speculate on the “commenters” political persuasion? Talk about Christianophobia! In his YouTube video, Wilson stated of the progressive left: “When they say ‘democracy,’ they mean ‘tyranny.’ When they say ‘love,’ they mean ‘coercion.’ When they say ‘liberty,’ we can hear the clanking of the chains. When they say ‘dialogue,’ they mean for us to shut up. When they say ‘free your spirit,’ what they really mean is ‘obey the demons.’” I must say, that seems to me a reasonably accurate summation.

On the eve of President Trump meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin to try to foster a deal to finally end the bloody Russia-Ukraine War, California Gov. Gavin Newsome took to social media to state, “Donald Trump is about to have a very bad day”-- pertaining to Newsome’s vow to further redistrict his state to favor Democrats.

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., recently posted a picture of himself holding a baseball bat and promising to push back against Trump’s "big, beautiful bill." What was Hakeem threatening to do with that bat?

Newly declassified FBI records have pointed to Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA), and Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA), as likely conduits for damaging leaks aimed at undermining President Donald Trump. Many of us have suspected this for a long time now. The inimitably repulsive Swalwell was the victim of a Chinese honey-trap, yet has faced no consequences for his incredibly irresponsible actions. And, rather than address the charges, he recently tweeted, “Come get me, Kash,” a taunting reference to FBI Director Kash Patel. Schiff, i.e. “Pencil Neck,” is facing allegations of mortgage fraud as well as what many would consider treason. Talk about a demented duo! Swalwell, Schiff, Pelosi, Harris… oh my! California has come a long way from Ronald Reagan! Down a road that ought not have been travelled.

I would normally say “And I could go on…” about now, but that would be an understatement. I have barely scratched the surface of Democrat’s lawlessness, thuggery, vulgarity, perfidy, and insanity. And yes, anti-Americanism. Nearly all of the aforementioned events occurred in just the past few days.

Mind-bending. Some of the Democrat Party’s leaders are (allegedly) criminals themselves, so perhaps it shouldn’t be surprising that they have such an affinity for others of their ilk.

Of Democrats And Gerrymandering-- A Primer On Projection

 

California Gov. Gavin “French Laundry” Newsome and other prominent progressive politicians recently gathered in support of an aggressive “new” gerrymandering campaign. If voters subsequently approve the proposed new political map, half a dozen California Republicans would be thrown out of office.

This endeavor is supposedly to “combat” redistricting in Texas that would see several Democrats lose their seats. But nothing could be further from the truth. Democrats have redistricted and gerrymandered much of the United States, to the point that states like New jersey, New York, and California itself have significantly more Democrats in Congress than would comport with the actual statewide percentage of folks who vote Democrat. In fact, Democrats have historically been the ones gerrymandering, incessantly and preposterously, to increase their representation over what it otherwise would—and probably should—be.

With a straight face Newsome stated: “We can’t stand back and watch this democracy disappear, district by district, all across this country.” Others said much the same thing in support of the Golden State’s gerrymander campaign. Which is hard to do given the fact that many Blue States’ congressional district maps look like they were drawn by Kamala Harris after closing time on 2-for-1 night at the local bar.

Gerrymandering makes fewer districts competitive, whether done by Democrats or Republicans…and tends to drive both parties towards the fringes/extremes. Yet, once again, it is the staggering hypocrisy, gaslighting, and projection of Democrats that is objectively repulsive.

Gavin Newsome’s name should be Gerry Mander! He is all over the map, whether it be redistricting or as regards policy prescriptions. The Democrat Party either needs to change its name or at least have the decency to put an asterisk and/or disclaimer after it to comply with truth-in-advertising laws. The party blathers on about “saving democracy” while they do everything conceivable to destroy it. Democrats lie, cheat, steal, wish to pack the court, embrace lawfare and hoaxes, dismiss the rule of law, foster judicial tyranny, eschew the Constitution, disregard citizen’s rights but welcome illegals, and utterly reject the wishes of the majority.

“Autocrats” would be a more accurate term for them. Or perhaps “Despotcrats.”

“Nastycrats?” The “Prevaricator Party?” “Corruptocrats?” “Asshatocrats?”

I’m sure readers can come up with their own updated terms for the erstwhile DFL. I might even reference the best one or two in a future column.

Democrats Revealing Themselves Yet Again

 

As others have already written, Beto O’Rourke recently spoke to a crowd in Texas stating, “There are no refs in this game. F**k the rules! We are going to win whatever it takes.” Talk about stating the obvious. Democrats have never cottoned to been bound by the rules, although this may be the first time a prominent one said “F**k the rules” to an audience. Then again, as much as they’ve all been cussing lately, maybe not.

One thing is clear: Democrats have sworn off American citizens in favor of, well, anybody and everybody else. O’Rourke spoke of redoubling Democrats’ efforts at gerrymandering and vowed that when Democrats regain power, they will immediately grant amnesty to illegals. Knock me over with a feather. In short, O’Rourke told the 200+ people packing the Ridglea Theater that Democrats will do whatever it takes to regain power. Yes, and the sun sets in the west. Now tell me something I don’t know. Democrats always do whatever it takes to retain, augment, or regain power. Always. Hence the Russia-Collusion Hoax, the Plandemic and consequent mail-in voting, impeachments, lawfare, etc., etc., etc.

O’Rourke also claimed of Democrats: “In Texas, our knees do not bend.” I, well, [fill in your own joke here.] He further opined, that illegal aliens do the back-breaking work “that makes this country so Goddamned great in the first place.”

No, those who came here legally in the past…intending to become Americans in every way…made this country God-blessed great in the first place. There is an enormous difference between the two. The difference between a society based on limited government and the rule of law that respects the rights individuals have been granted by their Creator and one in which intersectionality, entitlement, and criminality necessitates a massive government and leads to a two-tier “justice” system that eschews individuals in favor of…favored groups.

We have always known Democrats will do anything—anything at all—to further their own power. (See also Tammany Hall, slavery, secession, the Civil War, Richard Daley, the Clintons, Adam Schiff, etc., etc.)

John Adams famously stated: "Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious People.”

Today’s Democrats favor unfettered immigration, abortion until the moment of birth, the mutilation of children’s genitals, the conflating of man and woman, medical assistance in dying (MAID), and a dozen other insane policies that—coincidentally of course—line the pockets of their benefactors and themselves.

Moral and religious people? Most of today’s Democrats are the polar opposite of that. Does that make them unconstitutional?

Certain Canadian Leaders Need To Take A Hike

 

Nova Scotia Premier Tim Houston and New Brunswick Premier Susan Holt recently apparently decided that global warming/climate change has gotten so bad that even walking in the woods could cause spontaneous conflagrations. So no hiking! Holt subsequently went on record as saying the directive to avoid walking amongst trees was not, in fact, due to the risk of more fires, but due to the risk that hikers themselves could possibly get hurt while strolling through the forest at a time when EMTs and emergency vehicles and apparatus are dedicated to fighting fires. In other words, their fellow Canadians will not be allowed to take the risk that they could get a booboo and the government wouldn’t be there to help them out. But Houston, we have a problem. (And I bet no Holts will be barred from any activity.) If everybody and everything is spread out across Canada fighting fires, you could say the same thing about fishing, playing tennis…or any other activity. What’s more, by far the most dangerous activity of all, with a 100% chance of impacting any and everyone, is breathing in the effing toxic smoke from the fires themselves. Fires with which Canada’s dedicated fire-fighting assets have been entirely unable to contain for the entirety of the summer thus far.

Are today’s Canadians this willing to allow their government to tell them they can’t walk in the effing woods? Which means they can’t walk in almost any part of Canada, except perhaps the most urban areas where help might be more quickly available or above the tree line. And, sadly, the former is now particularly dangerous due to the literally countless numbers of undocumented “guests” the country has let in, the latter because it truly is an extraordinarily harsh environment and exceedingly remote. So, perhaps Canucks should just stay in their homes and wait for the fires to burn themselves out naturally, in, say, 2032. If they (and we) are lucky.

Are Nova Scotians and New Brunswickers experiencing a bit of Déjà vu? It's almost like The Plandemic all over again, isn’t it? “Stay inside and be safe! That’s an order! Sit-up! Roll-over! Play dead!” These Maritime Canucks should tell Houston and Holt to go lay by their dishes. Or are many Canadians this docile now? This afraid?

What became of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, lumberjacks, and rough and tumble hockey players? What has become of the country that once fought valiantly in World War II and whose troops stormed Juno Beach?

Today its citizens seem unable to push back effectively against forest fires and the abusive actions of their leaders in government.

Maybe those leaders need to “take a hike.”

Smarter Phones, Dumber People

 

My generation grew up without cell or “smart” phones. After lunch, on days we didn’t have school, we’d head outside and our parents (there were almost always two) would say, “Supper is at 6, be back by then.” That would be inconceivable to most modern parents, and I understand that. Kinda scary. Where are they and what are they doing? What if they should get hurt? How will I know and how will they get help? Legitimate questions all.

However:

The vast majority of us in my generation grew up to be relatively healthy and productive individuals. Unfortunately, as even surveys show, the same cannot be said of far too many of those raised with mobile phones and 24/7 internet access. Might there be a connection?

And then there is the A.I. chatbot that told a teenager that self-harm “felt good,” and that it sympathized with kids who killed their parents. With A.I. platforms like that, who needs the devil?

Even apart from extreme examples like that, modern technology is problematic at best for folks of all ages…and devastating to the healthy development of children.

Take the smart phone for instance. Please. Even for a few brief moments. Most of us are far more terrified of being separated from them for a day or two than we are of being separated from our wife and children. Most of us would admit that. This alone is not a good sign…to put it mildly. We walk bent over, staring into the mini-machines that entrap us, rarely looking up. Often unaware of our surroundings. And fellow human beings. There is talk about bent neck syndrome or other future genetic abnormalities arising from our obsession with smart phones. But the real problem will be the damage done to our psyches, our humanity. There are those who would rather see their significant other immolated in a house fire than get a crack in their smart phone’s screen, let alone see their smart phone immolated in a house fire. It is an understatement to say this is not good.

Many young folks can’t tell time on an analog clock…or do the simple math required to count back change from, say, an $18.47 purchase if a twenty-dollar bill was handed to them. A great many no longer like to deal with live human beings at all. And no longer know how to properly and effectively do so.

Even if in the immediate vicinity of another person or family member, many choose to text them instead of looking them in the eye and talking to them. You can see this in a dentist office’s lobby, a hospital waiting room…or at the family dinner table. It is a sad sight, indeed.

Moreover, communication skills have deteriorated to such an extent that many youngsters can only communicate by prefacing every statement with “I feel like,” and/or using emojis to convey their meaning. Acronyms and a sort of grunting have essentially replaced many words and phrases. Devolution is the order of the day.

Artificial intelligence is advancing rapidly, even as human intelligence, capability, and decency are declining. That cannot possibly be a good thing…or end well. It is anything but smart. We are writing ourselves out of our own story…and, yet again, cheapening what it means to be human.

Smokescreens (An Exclusive Opinion)

 

According to Newsweek, “Thousands of people living across a swath of southern California have been urged to avoid grilling, burning incense and using gasoline-powered garden tools by the National Weather Service (NWS) amid a series of air quality alerts for fine particle pollution.”

So, due to wildfire smoke-- caused largely by liberal man’s dumb-ass policies-- from fires consuming tens or hundreds of thousands of acres or more, the National Weather Service or some such agency gets to tell us not to grill…or burn incense? Are there millions of folks incessantly burning incense of which I’m unaware? If so, they’re likely Lefties, too. No government entity should be able to tell us we can’t grill a burger, light a match, or till our gardens because there are fires raging somewhere else. Fires that have been raging for months and months, in Canada’s case.

In Minnesota, during the frequent periods when toxic Canadian wildfire smoke has invaded the state, there are highway signs everywhere saying, “Air Quality Alert—Consider Reducing Trips.” No! You don’t get to tell us that, you asshats! Our cars have absolutely nothing to do with the fact that the area is choked with dense smoke, to the ground, and the fact that we can’t see more than half a mile ahead of us. It is toxic smoke from massive and long out-of-control conflagrations in northern and western Canada. What of that do you clowns not understand?! We shouldn’t have to consider not going in to work because the progressive morons in control of Canada (or California) can’t—or won’t—douse their bleeping fires, citizens and neighbors alike be damned.

A more accurate and effective sign would be placed on the Canadian border facing north and state: “Consider putting out your bleeping fires…or risk being annexed by the United States.”

Or perhaps: “Consider moving to Texas or Florida if you’d like to keep your health and avoid lung cancer.”

Or even: “Consider taking up smoking. It’s really not going to make a difference anymore.”

But don’t blow smoke up our asses. And don’t tell us we can’t drive, grill, or even tend our garden or meditate. It’s beginning to look like COVID-1984 all over again.

Let’s pray all this smoke goes away soon.

Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Canadian Prime Minister Eschews Free Speech, Embraces Tyranny

 

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney utilized an August 5 press conference in British Columbia to summarily dismiss concerns over Liberal legislation (Bill C-18) preventing news outlets from sharing news on social media, particularly during emergencies. The Canadian Commie globalist didn’t just refuse to rescind the aforementioned Bill C-18. No siree, he also urged his fellow Canucks to rely on government-funded CBC News for fair and unbiased information.

In light of the fact that heads of government steadfastly refuse to tell the truth, I have taken it upon myself to translate Carney’s statement to more accurately reflect his actual meaning and beliefs:

“Comrades, trust me, the CBC is a reliable and highly credible news source that is as honest as our glorious revolution is long. And remember, unfettered free speech is the hallmark of a depraved and chaotic society, and invites input from those that don’t value the revolution above all.”

This despite the fact that many objective observers deem the CBC to be a propaganda arm of the Liberal Party, from which it receives the vast majority of its funding. Similar to the mainstream media’s relationship to the Democrat Party in the United States.

But quashing free speech and association isn’t enough for the Carney government. Perish the thought! The ruling Liberal Party is also encouraging “LGBTQI+” refugees to move to Canada by offering them taxpayer-funded income for up to 12 months in addition to various other programs. Turns out, the Babylon Bee’s allegedly satiric post referencing President Trump’s desire to annex Canada and label it “Gay North Dakota” was spot-on. (Corollary: it’s shocking how many “conspiracy theories” have turned out to be facts.)

So, once again, you have a Western nation trashing its own citizens and traditions in favor of foreigners, especially those with sexual kinks. The Great Replacement Theory is not a theory, but an ongoing plan that is nearing fruition in some areas.

Whoa, Canada!

No, Canada!

Woe, Canada.

Nice place to visit. Wouldn’t want to live there.

The West At Twilight

 

According to a report in The Christian Post,

British police are facing heavy scrutiny after they threatened to arrest a Christian preacher after a group of Muslims heard him preach and threatened to stab him and punch his wife. The incident occurred in Bristol when Pastor Dia Moodley was preaching in the city center. Moodley was talking about the differences between Islam and Christianity and was holding a Quran as he did so. In response, he says a Muslim bystander threatened to stab him, while another tried to punch his wife. Moodley said he was then pinned to the ground by the Muslims who tried to steal his Quran on the grounds that it was their book rather than his.”

By that logic, the pastor could have replied that Bristol was his city, not the Muslim bystanders.

The report went on to note, “when the police appeared, they did nothing to reprimand the Muslims, and the man who made the stabbing threats allegedly continued to threaten him in the presence of the police.” Worse yet, police officers reportedly told Moodley—on two occasions-- that he could be arrested for “public order offences.”

On the positive side, the threatened stabbing of Pastor Moodley and the attempted assault on his wife made the difference between Islam and Christianity quite clear.

This is what happens when speech is policed and crime isn’t.

This is what happens when leftists have power. This is what’s happening to Europe and Canada…and in several large American cities. And it is both a “moral inversion” (as Melanie Phillips has so aptly termed it) and a logical perversion. It is also a moral perversion and logical inversion.

And so you get British wanker coppers (as Mark Steyn often refers to them) essentially saying things like, “Stop using your torso to assault the Muslim man’s knife!”

In this Depraved New World, fictitious reports like the following are becoming all-too real:

*Police recently arrested a 16-year-old English woman who was resisting her Middle Eastern rapist. The woman unconscionably refused to let the 25-year-old Pakistani serially rape, abuse, and torture her. The would-be rapist, a London resident and devoted husband and family man, said that his intended victim’s actions made him feel “marginalized, unwelcome and unseen.” Representatives of the Starmer government promptly decried the young women’s actions and reached out to the man in support. Several United States Democrats did the same, with at least two of them offering to take the sadly traumatized Pakistani out for dinner and drinks, the latter non-alcoholic of course.

Most Americans-- perhaps especially Christians-- treat others as individuals, no matter their religion, race, or whatever. Whereas Islam teaches its adherents to treat all non-Muslims as “infidels” who must be converted, enslaved, or killed.

For those properly surveying the passing scene, the only question left is this one: will Europe (Old World) and America (New World) wake up in time to stop their respective slides into the twin despotisms/horrors of radical secularism and militant Islam, or will they devolve into chaos, destitution and depravity? In other words, will the West surrender without a fight…or will there be a Devolutionary War, hopefully a cold one?

Most of Europe seems to be on the very brink, in its 11th hour, whereas the United States under President Trump appears in a bit better shape. That said, true Marxists and/or radical Islamists are potentially on the verge of becoming mayors of big cities such as New York, Minneapolis, and Seattle.

As Steyn often says, “demography is destiny.”

As I often say, “you get what you tolerate.”

What will happen? Where does this end? I’m not Nostradamus.

I’m not optimistic, either.

For the simple fact that almost all governments are utterly corrupt. And the bigger they are, the more corrupt. There are virtually no historical examples to refute this claim. If the people are to prevail, power must be returned to local governments and entities. The only viable—sustainable, moral, and fruitful—way forward is to eschew globalism and “one world government.” And to return to limited government…of, by, and for the people.

Where have I heard that before?

Man In France Imprisoned For Burning A Qur'an

 

This past June, a Turkish dissident in Britain was fined for burning a Qur’an. And now French-language CNews has reported that “a man was sentenced this Wednesday by the Lyon Criminal Court to one year in prison for burning a Quran in front of a mosque in Villeurbanne (Rhône) last June.” One full year in prison for burning a book.

You see, there is a corollary to the two-tier justice system that prevails in much of the West these days: a two-tier torching system. Some things you can burn, and some things you can’t. Well, actually, there is only one thing you can’t burn.

In the U.S.-- and most of the West-- you can burn off steam, burn through your money, get burned out or burned to a crisp, burn something up, burn something down, burn someone in effigy, or burn rubber. You can experience a slow burn, burn the midnight oil, or burn the candle at both ends.

You can burn your bra, the American flag, your draft card, and even bridges, cities, and Bibles.

But you can’t burn a Qur’an-- at least without facing fines, imprisonment…or death.

Because, unlike the Bible, which instructs us to “love your neighbor as yourself,” the Qur’an instructs Muslims to convert, enslave, or kill infidels.

And too many in the West willfully misconstrue both messages. Christians and the hyper-secular alike tend to not only tolerate, but venerate, those that would destroy them and their societies.

We have been woke. But now it’s time to wake up.

Canadian Wildfires May Be Impossible To Extinguish

The Albany Times Union headline read, “Not so easy: Dousing the Canadian wildfires may not be possible.”

It may not be possible to put out the Canadian wildfires?! Humans learned how to fly. Americans and Canadians have won two World Wars. Mankind has been to the moon and sent unmanned craft around the solar system-- and beyond. And Canada can’t put out a fire? Humans invented fire—or the planned use of it—around 800,000 years ago. Almost concurrently, they learned how to extinguish it. No matter the scope and location of today’s fires, it is surpassingly strange that we can’t put them out 800,000 years later.

The Times Union article went on to sanguinely note: “There is apparently little that can be done to stop or prevent the out-of-control wildfires tearing through much of northwest Canada - some engulfing over 250,000 acres. These fires can’t be stopped…or even prevented?!

Apparently, there are no roads or infrastructure in many of the remote areas where these fires are burning. And, according to Paige Fischer, an associate professor at the University of Michigan School of Environment and Sustainability, "There aren't areas where people are actively managing forests."

So there clearly are things that could be done to extinguish and even prevent the fires: construct the necessary infrastructure and actively manage the forests. Imagine that!

Fischer added that almost two-thirds of the fires in Canada are ignited by lightning-- and that those fires tend to be by far the most destructive. She also noted that Canadian forests include the Black Spruce tree “which is a flammable species.” She further stated that the presence of lighting and flammable species is outside the country's control and thus complex to manage.

Guess what? We have Black Spruce trees in the U.S., from Minnesota to the New England states. And more lightning strikes per square mile annually in much of the country, as well. So we have wildfires, too. We just don’t say “there is absolutely no way we can put them out.” And we do manage forests in order to prevent massive, endless conflagrations.

Moreover, the Times Union piece noted that N.Y. state Department of Environmental Conservation Commissioner Amanda Lefton recently said that she is unaware of any Canadian requests for assistance in fighting the more than 700 Canuck wildfires, while also noting that the state has deployed firefighting resources to other states in the U.S. Guess they asked for help.

Of course, numerous authorities and experts have cited the allegedly increasingly hot and dry summers due to climate change as another reason for prolonged wildfires. I thought global warming was supposed to lead to increasingly wet weather. Oh well, whatever.

Memo to authorities and experts: If the temperature in northern Saskatchewan is, say, 77 degrees Fahrenheit instead of 75 degrees Fahrenheit, due to man-caused global warming, that doesn’t make a fire any more likely, nor any more aggressive. Anyone who is an aficionado of bonfires can tell you that. (And don’t try to tell me that the allegedly 1.4 degree Fahrenheit increase in average global temperature in the past 145 years has resulted in significantly more lightning strikes over Canada.)

Some of the Canadian wildfires are man-caused, as they are deliberately set by arsonists. And they are man-caused in other ways, too, but not because of global warming/climate change/any change in the weather is due to man’s actions. They are man-caused because Canada will not take the steps necessary to douse them…or prevent them. Period.

As a result, the United States—extremely unusually-- has recently had some of the world’s worst air quality.

Like a good bad neighbor, Canada is there.

A Two-Tier Injustice System

 

According to LifeSiteNews: “A Christian doctor in Australia was found guilty of professional misconduct, not for substandard patient care, but because he had previously shared social media posts critical of abortion, LGBT ideology, and COVID-19 policies. Dr. Jereth Kok was suspended over six years ago and lost his career.” 

His suspension was recently upheld by something called ‘the Victorian Civil and Administration Tribunal’ (VCAT), which decided that many of his online social media posts over a 12-year period were examples of “misconduct” under the National Law. Not fond of the mass murder of the unborn? What kind of ‘doctor’ are you? That’s misconduct! Remember doctors’ creed: “first, do grievous harm!” Wait, that might not be it. Anyway, I think it is summed up in the Hypocritical Hippocratic Oath, whatever that is.

Question: do we really think the good doctor would have been suspended for lauding Obama Care or criticizing President Trump? Trump’s tariffs? Would he have lost his career if he had used social media to, say, pick a bone with Christians?

In a similar vein, Michael Weitzel, a Trump supporter, was recently made to leave a professional soccer game in St. Louis due to his "Make America Great Again" baseball cap. You see, the venue touts itself as “nonpolitical” and supposedly eschews political messages of any kind. At the time, the stadium was flying gay pride flags.

Would Weitzel-- or anyone else-- have been booted from the stadium for wearing an “I’m with her” tee-shirt? For sporting a “Biden 2024” button? Or even for wearing a hat stating, “Globalize the intifada?” (Perhaps in PRIDE! colors!) Odds are there was a Palestinian flag or two in the crowd, as well.

A two-tier justice system sadly prevails in the U.S. today. Meaning there is often no justice for those on the bottom tier: whites, males, heterosexuals, Christians, conservatives. Check all of those boxes? You are obviously a fascist…and proud of it. And probably wear American Eagle jeans. Intersectionality!

Speaking of the so-called ‘justice’ system, federal district court judges continue to rule against the Trump administration’s agenda—and, ironically and hypocritically, in stark defiance of United States Supreme Court orders. This is nothing short of illogical, and lawless, tyranny.

The founders were deeply concerned about the possibility of judicial tyranny. Thomas Jefferson stated: "The opinion which gives to the judges the right to decide what laws are constitutional and what not, not only for themselves in their own sphere of action, but for the legislative and executive also in their spheres, would make the judiciary a despotic branch.”

Jefferson also noted that "…judges should be withdrawn from the bench whose erroneous biases are leading to dissolution. It may, indeed, injure them in fame or fortune; but it saves the Republic…"

Indeed.

The ICC Threatens Hungary For Not Arresting Benjamin Netanyahu

 

According to the Associated Press, “A panel of judges at the International Criminal Court (ICC) reported Hungary to the court’s oversight organization for failing to arrest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu when he visited Budapest in April, saying the move undercut the court’s ability to bring suspects to justice.”

Hungary withdrew from the ICC in April, making it the only European Union nation not currently swearing fealty to the leftist international tribunal…and simultaneously making it the only sane country in the EU.

The ICC is located in The Hague, which is, coincidentally or not, also the capital of the EU. This makes The Hague arguably on par with Washington, DC, as bastions of global government thought…and dens of iniquity.

Essentially, the ICC thinks it can arrest anyone it doesn’t care for. That’s unilateralism. That’s globalism in its ugliest form. Who among us is safe? That is the opposite of democracy.

Israel is the ultimate David. It is a barely noticeable speck on a map, surrounded by a number of vast Muslim states. Israel is smaller than Vermont or New Hampshire. And it just suffered its greatest ever loss on October 7, 2023, when thousands of innocent Israelis were killed, injured, or tortured at a music festival.

If the ICC wants to flout its power by trying individuals for genocide, war crimes, crimes against humanity, or aggression, it should start with members of Hamas. Or the Ayatollah Khomeini. Or perhaps Hillary Clinton, John Brennan, James Clapper, Peter Strzok, James Comey, Robert Mueller, Alejandro Mayorkas, and Barack Obama. There can’t be any greater crime against humanity than immediately and incessantly trying to overturn the will of the people of the United States and aggressively framing the sitting president via outright lies and preposterous falsehoods.

If the ICC was around during World War II, would it have tried and convicted, say, Winston Churchill or George Patton? FDR? Monty? Ike? If so, the ICC itself would have been responsible for countless deaths, suffering, and the spread of totalitarianism.

The ICC, in its current iteration, favors Hamas over Israel, radical Democrats over President Trump, and terror-sponsoring nations over the United States. In a truly just world, members of the ICC itself would be threatened with arrests, trials and convictions.

Local government, education, and beer are all better than national versions. Just sayin’.

CNN's Erin Burnett Engages In "Possibly Yellow" Journalism

 

According to reports, a man recently entered NFL headquarters in New York City and killed one NYPD officer and three civilians in cold blood…before taking his own life. The man, Shane Tamura, 27, left behind a suicide note in which he blamed the NFL for an allegedly football-related brain injury — despite the fact that he had not played football since high school. The note stated, “Please study brain for CTE. I’m sorry. The league knowingly concealed the dangers to our brains to maximize profits. They failed us.”

Of course, the media did what the media does, and blamed gun culture and football (toxic masculinity!) for the deadly attack. The media was as off-target as Tamura, who was an office over from NFL headquarters when he perpetrated his crime.

In a truly egregious act of rank speculation (and hope), CNN reporter Erin Burnett originally posited, on air, that the perpetrator was “possibly white.” Double check those sources. Nail the facts down before commenting. No bias here, only solid and ethical ‘journalism’ for the mainstream media, right? Ready. FIRE! Aim. “Possibly white?” If you don’t know the facts, the perp could’ve “possibly” been black, green, Hindu, trans, Pisces…or identified as a mollusk. What the hell?! It is quite apparent that Burnett wanted the murderer to be white, in the same way that some in the media get visibly aroused when Democrats get elected or bad things happen to conservatives. (See also: Chris Matthews says Obama speech gave him a “thrill up his leg.”)

Frankly, I’m surprised Burnett didn’t also say-- before knowing anything-- that the gunman was, “Likely a toxically masculine, heterosexual Christian who probably watches Fox News and Newsmax. And who almost certainly likes J.K. Rowling and has a ‘My Pillow.’”

Is it just me, or does it appear that there many instances of grievous brain damage amongst members of the mainstream media? Or is it just cowardice, a craven unwillingness to deviate from the Deep State’s agenda?

In either case, we need to tackle this problem head-on. No helmets or pads, and no excuses.

Minnesota: Not So Nice Anymore

               “Minnesota: come for the high taxes, stay for the road construction!”

In case you can’t tell, I am working on a new tourism slogan for the North Star State. Another one: “Minnesota: come for the mosquitoes and zebra mussels, stay for the insane leftist policies!” No? How about: “Minnesota: come for the deer ticks/Lyme disease, stay for the incredibly bad weather!” That doesn’t float your boat, either?

Speaking of boats, Minnesota has a ton of them, atop many of its 10,000 (actually 11,842) lakes. It is a physically diverse and beautiful state. Some of its vistas are breathtaking. The air used to be clean-- prior to the toxic Canadian wildfire smoke that is now ubiquitous-- and the fishing is great. And yet…

It now appears possible, if not likely, that a radical Muslim Marxist will soon be mayor of Minneapolis, the state’s biggest city. The once vibrant town that was called “The City of Lakes” is now “The City of Leftists.” The Twin Cities area is host to a large and growing population of Muslims. Yet it also sports one of the largest LGBTQ communities in the United States. Something will have to give there, sometime. And now the always liberal city seems to be on its way to being overrun with Marxists. Is it not bad enough that it sparked the George Floyd riots?

Minnesota was once the land of “Minnesota Nice,” where people could live “the good life” as per a Time Magazine cover with the then governor Wendel Anderson pictured in a boat holding up a northern pike.

And now it is known for Rep. Ilhan Omar and Gov. ‘Tampon’ Timmy Walz. Moreover, it is an abortion sanctuary, a transgender sanctuary, and an illegal alien sanctuary. That is an immoral trifecta if I’ve ever seen one.

So speaking of zebra mussels—and in keeping with the hyper-inclusive ‘sanctuary’ theme-- I propose the governor officially and proudly pronounce the state to be an ‘invasive species sanctuary.’

“Minnesota: come for the Eurasian milfoil and round goby, stay for Omar Fateh and Ilhan Omar!”

Now that’s nice, comrade!

U.S. Representative Says Her Priority Is Developing "Our Country Of Somalia"

 

Rep. Deqa Dhalac (D-ME), a Somali immigrant, recently stated that her priority is developing “our country of Somalia.” Say what?!

Our country of Somalia?!” Yes, forget about serving the American citizens who pay your salary…or at least put their interests on the back burner. What really matters is that you focus on Somalia. Is that even Constitutional? I thought government Representatives were supposed to support and defend the (American) Constitution, not commit themselves to helping out the nations from which they hail.

Dhalac routinely refers to Somalia as “our country,” and is deeply involved in far-left politics, often advocating for policies that are anathema to conservatives and that undermine American values. Unsurprisingly, she is vehemently anti-border enforcement. Moreover, she pushed to create Maine’s “Office of New Americans,” which was founded to expand resources for immigrants and non-citizens—and, like Dhalac, is funded by taxpayers. In short, there doesn’t appear to be a progressive or far-left cause she does not support, especially those involving “undocumented migrants.”

Many folks speak of the “Uniparty” when frustrated that campaign promises were broken, or that typically spineless Republicans have once again compromised with Democrats to the nation’s detriment. Or when it appears that there is a two-tiered justice system, one for members of the Uniparty, and one for the rest of us. I have often done so myself. But, in this case, there is a distinct difference between the vast majority of Republicans and the vast majority of Democrats—or at least between conservatives and “progressives” or “Democratic-Socialists.” The former groups want to make America great again, while the latter ones seem far more focused on making, say, Somalia or Palestine great for the first time. American citizens be damned. Since Democrats singular motivation is their desire to attain and enhance their own power, we must posit that they believe undocumented immigrants and non-citizens will soon be the voting block that guarantees them perpetual rule.

This is why I.C.E deportations and the Trump administration’s border and immigration policies drive them absolutely batsh*t crazy. I am far from the first to state that the West is at a pivot point. An existential crossroads. We are poised on the edge of an abyss, a Rubicon we mustn’t cross. The great Mark Steyn has been warning us about this for years. And still is.

The natives (of the U.S., England, Denmark, and other nations), as they say, are finally getting restless. They are tired of paying for those non-natives who too often don’t want to assimilate-- and too often commit crimes. It seems like a battle is looming. Let’s hope it is a figurative one.

In any case, it is one that must be won. Else we will one day wake up and find we are living in “our country of Somalia.” Or “our country of Syria”-- Guatemala, Kosovo, Eritrea, Nigeria, etc.

Toxic Smoke From Canadian Wildfires A Serious Threat To Millions Of Americans

 

I did not intend to write about Canada again, but I live in Minnesota. Or am trying to. If you are rolling your eyes reading this, you don’t live in Minnesota. The toxic smoke from the never-ending Canadian wildfires has, yet again, settled over the North Star State, so thick it is smothering. Visibility is reduced. The horizon is a whitish-gray. At times the smoke makes it all the way to the ground and becomes impossible not to inhale and consume directly.

From where I sit, Canada may as well be one giant, well-used ashtray.

Canada’s flames appear to be eternal, like its government’s idiocy. The toxic smoke they are producing repeatedly sits over Minnesota, as well as several other northern-tier states. This is causing many Americans to stay inside, cancel vacation plans, get sick, and in some cases die. You would think such a hyper-woke country would give a crap about the human cost its refusal to put out its fires is taking on its neighbors, but you would be wrong. If there were outdoor smoke detectors across Minnesota, every single one of them would be going off right now-- and possibly in perpetuity, in keeping with the everlasting Canadian wildfires.

This is akin to your next-door neighbor burning massive piles of wet leaves 24 hours a day, 7 days a week…with the prevailing wind direction blowing the heavy smoke right into your yard, windows, and home. And that neighbor knowing that you have an asthmatic child and an elderly relative on oxygen residing in your home with you. (And so much for the rest of your family coming to visit.)

I have had fish fries in my home when my smoke detectors went off due to far less visible and obnoxious smoke then is outdoors over Minnesota right now. Either we have to go up there and put out the fires ourselves, or we should light everything on fire up there that isn't currently burning, so that-- at least eventually-- there could be an end to the madness when there is nothing left to burn.

What about equity? “Unfair” Doesn't begin to describe this travesty. Maybe we could reciprocate and send them something to repay the favor. Or perhaps we should simply annex Canada, put out the damn fires, and keep Alberta and Saskatchewan while returning the rest of the provinces after the fires are finally extinguished.

I have heard more than one Canuck authority say that sometimes the “right thing to do” is let natural fires burn themselves out. (Easy for them to say, when many of these conflagrations occur where no one lives.) My response? First off, many of these fires aren’t “natural,” but were set deliberately. That means they were man-caused! Gasp! But Canada seems just as uninterested in dealing with these arsonists as it is with punishing any other criminal…with the exception of those who criticize its government or preach the Christian gospel, of course. Death is natural, too, but no moral person would let their fellow human beings die unnecessarily.

Canada may be woke, but it needs to wake up. Once again, the smoke level in Minnesota is considered “unhealthy for all groups.” Unhealthy for everyone. And it is predicted to be at this level for four consecutive days. Just like it has been several times already this summer. (And likely will be again and again until late fall.) Like it was in the summer of 2024. And the summer of 2023. Detecting a pattern?

Certain acts committed by one nation that cause misery and death to those in other nations may be considered acts of war. What to make of Canada’s deliberate inactions in this case? (As Rush Limbaugh might say, “for those of you in Rio Linda” I am not advocating going to war with Canada. I would, however, like the American government to take this more seriously.)
