Euthanasia On The Rise In The West

             According to reports, 37% more people were euthanized in New Zealand last year than the year before. Progress, right? Euthanizing older folks with allegedly terminal conditions is becoming more common in many Western nations. And, in some cases, those who aren’t elderly at all. And those who may just be really depressed. And, well you can see where this is headed. The New Zealand Ministry of Health’s Assisted Dying Service laid out the gruesome details in its annual report. Canada, too, is euthanizing more folks, through that country’s Medical Assistance In Dying program (MAiD).

On a lighter note, an article in Life Site News stated, “only 126 medical professionals were willing to participate in an assisted death in 2024, which indicates that most medical professionals are unwilling to kill their patients.”

              “Most medical professionals are unwilling to kill their patients?” Well, that’s nice. How did we get from, “First, do no harm” to “How many of you guys are willing to kill your patients?” (Apparently, some Muslim doctors and nurses are more than willing to let their Jewish patients die.)

The writing is on the wall. It seems likely that more doctors will be willing to euthanize their patients in the future, at least those in the “advanced” nations.

Life Site News noted that a journalist named Alexander Raikin published two separate reports last fall, positing that a quarter of all euthanasia practitioners in Ontario may have violated the Criminal Code of Canada. And then Raikin asked, “Does anyone care?” Apparently not. I mean, it’s not as if those medical practitioners misgendered someone, right?

New Zealand legalized euthanasia and assisted suicide in the fall of 2021. To be fair, most nations did likewise around that same time. (At least in the form of the Covid vaccines…badaboom!)

Of course, euthanasia activists, like all activists, are not satisfied with the status quo and are pushing for more. In fact, David Seymour, a sponsor of the “End of Life Choices” Act, now says that the legislation that was initially proffered to the public was a “political compromise,” not the end goal.

No doubt, countries like New Zealand and Canada will ultimately expand euthanasia to include all those who vote the wrong way.

Expanded euthanasia for citizens combined with an endless supply of illegal aliens undocumented migrants beloved guests. Now that is how you turn over your electorate in rapid fashion! The Great Replacement Theory writ large! Yay!

Progress, right?

 

Five Recent Stories That Tell The Tale Of Our Times (A.K.A. "Five With No Jive")-- A Blogger Exclusive!

*Canada has provided well over $100 million to the Communist Chinese government via “foreign aid” to promote “sustainable development,” such as gender equality, in recent years, according to a federal briefing note titled Assistance to China. In fact, Canada has contributed roughly $645 million to “key foreign policy priorities in China, including human rights, gender equality, sustainable development, and climate change” since 2003. Why? I mean, what the hell?! China needs this kind of help from Canada? Whose economy is larger? It’s Canada that needs help with sustainable development. This reeks of both virtue signaling and obsequiousness. Pathetic.

*California not only allows illegal aliens to vote in certain local elections, but in statewide elections citizenship is often “verified” through what amounts to an honor system. And now California Governor Gavin “Slick” Newsome has signed a bill into law that will allow illegal aliens to oversee elections. What could go wrong? Nothing, as far as Democrats are concerned. If Democrats had their druthers, they would allow this on a national scale. Total disenfranchisement of citizens and those who took the trouble to come here legally.

*Acting New Jersey Attorney General Angela Cai is pushing back on the recent announcement that the Justice Department would monitor polling sites in Passaic County, averring that there are “very limited circumstances” where federal authorities may enter a polling location, and that federal election monitors must seek authorization from a federal judge in order to observe election proceedings. Moreover, the AG’s office is telling counties that they are not obligated to permit the Justice Department access to polling sites. Cai stated: “As a matter of federal and state law, and absent a court order or agreement, DOJ monitors have no greater rights to enter or access polling sites than members of the public. If you have any questions on these matters, please do not hesitate to contact our office.” None of that makes any sense, but that may well be the point. Members of the public do have the right to enter polling places, or the polling places would serve no purpose. Yet, Cai is claiming that federal authorities don’t have the right to enter polling places in many cases. New Jersey, already a sanctuary state for illegal aliens, is, like California, clearly intent on making itself a sanctuary state for voter fraud, as well. No I.D. needed to vote? No monitors needed to oversee the vote…unless they themselves are illegal aliens and not federal authorities?! This is NOT being done to “make sure minorities can vote,” folks. It’s being done to make sure Democrats are never again a minority in terms of power. Period. They tried this kind of nullification once already in 1861. Let’s see how it goes this time.

*A British lawyer wearing a Star of David necklace near a pro-Palestinian protest outside the Israeli Embassy in London was arrested on August 29^th. British police said that the necklace “antagonized” pro-Palestinian protesters and that it could “cause offense.” Are you bleeping kidding me?! How about arresting the pro-Palestinian protesters for being in such close proximity to the Israeli Embassy?! Or for antagonizing sane Londoners? Or causing offense to countless British citizens? Maybe Scotland Yard should stop kowtowing to Muslims and start arresting them for wearing hijabs near Brits. Or for effectively breaking and entering into their country?

*Apparently, in some quarters, the “Dead Charlie Kirk Costume” is a thing. Really? Is our culture not degraded and depraved enough already? Were “Dead MLK Costumes” a thing? “Dead JFK Costumes?” Or “Dead Abraham Lincoln Costumes” back in the day? Sick.

 

Should Republican "Nazis" Turn The Table On Democrats?

 

Democrats, and those who aid and abet them in their crazed drive to destroy America, incessantly refer to President Trump as an “authoritarian,” a wannabe “king,” and even “Hitler.” They casually refer to Trump’s supporters as Nazis, white supremacists, racists, bigots, homophobes, transphobes, deplorables, clingers, etc. Whereas Trump drives them particularly mad, they said much the same about Nixon, Reagan, and George W. Bush, among others. And now some have already, in hyper-proactive mode, declared Vice-President J.D. Vance to be worse than Trump. Ergo, worse than Hitler. Which is odd, as Trump has done much for the Jewish people and the state of Israel…and hasn’t been responsible for killing countless other of his country’s citizens. Nor has he seen to the mass slaughter of blacks, gays, or disabled folks, either, some of whom serve in his administration, oddly enough. Moreover, he hasn’t appointed himself ruler for life, peaceably and promptly leaving office at the conclusion of his first presidency.

So, why the blatant lying and preposterous (and incredibly offensive) comparisons?

Several reasons. The willingness to baselessly smear one’s political opponents and simultaneously cheapen and dismiss the pain of actual victims of monsters such as Hitler requires both a total lack of moral character and integrity and a frightening desire for power. It often includes bald-faced lying, libel, slander, and a heaping helping of gaslighting and projection. And somewhere in this toxic mix of indecency, shame and jealousy likely play a part.

It is utterly different to call such people “bad” or “losers,” which Trump does, as it is usually-- self-evidently-- the case. But what if Republicans routinely utilized the same outlandish and extreme characterizations Democrats employ-- on prominent Democrats? It occurs to me, for example, that Gavin Newsome is in some ways a bit mindful of Caligula, and that J.B. Pritzker is three parts King Henry VIII, one part Genghis Khan.

Should Republicans start routinely using these sobriquets to describe them?

As for me, I will take the high road, as always. (Wink.) And leave the final decision up to you, dear reader.

And to Republicans.

No Kings? Vote Accordingly!

 

I hate bullies. Always have. Acted on it a few times when I was younger.

Why do I say this here and now? Two reasons: 1) Because there is no bigger bully than government. Period. Kings, dictators, assorted other tyrants, and massive Socialist/communist governments have proven this to be true throughout history. 2) President Trump is routinely accused of being a Nazi, dictator, tyrant, wannabe king. And this is ridiculous libel and slander.

Trump punches up. He takes on the Deep State, Big Education, Big Media (fake news), etc. And he does so on behalf of the people. By contrast, Democrats typically punch down, arresting individuals in kayaks alone on the ocean, or who defy orders to shelter in place. Don’t wish to accept an experimental mRNA vaccine into your body? Well, that is definitively not your choice. “Progressives” also attempt to harass and “cancel” folks for tweets and social media posts they don't like.

The United States was founded explicitly to protect individuals from bloated and abusive government that would usurp our natural rights granted to us by our Creator.

Antifa, BLM, anarchists-- and other subversive groups-- riot, attack law enforcement personnel, loot businesses small and large, and burn down portions of cities, albeit in a “mostly peaceful” way, according to the lamestream media. These groups cause untold suffering and billions of dollars in losses to cities, minority-owned businesses, and individuals alike. They run roughshod over others’ lives, because they can, and accept no blame. That’s the very definition of a bully…on a vast scale. President Trump seeks to cease and prevent this chaos and destruction. He is the anti-bully.

The real kings, the true authoritarians are, inarguably, Democrats and progressives. Trump fights for the littlest man possible: the individual. Democrats fight only to increase their own power. And they will employ any tactic, no matter the consequences, in their crazed pursuit of permanent power. Wanna “stick it to the man?” Vote for the likes of Trump and Vance, not Schumer, Newsome, Walz, or Pritzker, as they are the actual men who would be kings.

The phrase "the king has no clothes" refers to a situation where someone is pretending to be something they are not, and/or when a similar deception is revealed, and perhaps also to the inability of others to acknowledge the truth.  

That description demonstrably does not fit the man sitting in the Oval Office, but it perfectly applies to the likes of Schumer, Pelosi, and Omar….and their allies in “education” and the media.

Want to take part in a real “No Kings” rally? Go to your polling place and vote Republican in the Novembers to come.

 

Trump, The West, And Our Future

 

While the West slept, the end of the Enlightenment crept ever nearer.

A vociferous and unstable minority declared that there are an infinite number of genders, that a person is any one (or more) of these genders he/she/they says he/she/they is, that removing or adding body parts from/to young people is “gender-affirming care,” that abortion is “health care for women,” that Capitalism is bad and Marxism good despite the opposite being inarguably true for as long as both have existed, that unlimited and unvetted illegal migration enriches us, that diversity is our greatest strength, and that Islam is “a religion of peace.” Among other preposterous and existentially dangerous claims. (“The vaccines are safe and effective. As are facial masks. Stay at least six feet away from everyone else. Don’t go outside. COVID-19 came from a wet-market/bat/pangolin. China has been very helpful. Dr. Fauci is a saint.”)

And still, a great many of our elites and “authorities” cling to these ridiculous assertions. No one in power then has apologized. And they never will.

Enter Trump, 2.0. He has secured the border, beat back “wokeism,” fought the Deep State, and attempted to Make America Great Again, despite almost unimaginable attacks, figurative and literal, from his political opponents. No other modern president has ever had the courage to do what Trump has done. And that’s another reason why some of his political opponents want to kill him. You see, when he shows such temerity, character, courage, and resolve to get things done, it makes some of them feel inadequate. Shamed. Perhaps even guilty. In this way, Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) feeds itself. It’s a doom loop. And a dumb one.

Trump’s boldness and courage seem to have inspired a few leaders in countries such as Italy, Japan, and Argentina, and those who support them.

However, it is easier to sleep than to wake up. It requires far less effort and courage to continue to slumber rather than rise and face the slings and arrows of each newborn day.

Jesus was crucified. Lincoln was assassinated. Reagan nearly so. Trump was shot in the head. And yet he stands and leads. As does his republic, albeit sometimes shakily.

Rabid leftists stand, too. Ready to potentially assassinate Trump, his supporters…and the Constitutional republic they so despise.

Sorry if that offends you. But the truth is the truth, whether or not you and I wish to acknowledge it.

 

 

Democrats Prefer Nazi "Totenkopf" Symbol To Christian Ones

 

The self-same Democrats who went ballistic over now-Secretary of War Pete Hegseth’s Jerusalem Cross tattoo are now dead silent about a “progressive” Senate candidate who has a Nazi-style symbol tattooed to his chest. For example, Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass. (a.k.a. “Pocahontas”) and Sen. Tammy Duckworth, D-Ill., soundly criticized Hegseth for his tattoos, which also included one with the Latin phrase "Deus Vult," meaning “God wills it.” How dare he deface his body with such a disturbing phrase!

Democratic Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner, on the other hand, merely had a Nazi "Totenkopf” symbol tattooed to his chest. The Totenkopf, meaning “death’s head,” was adopted by the infamous S.S. as the unit’s insignia, and was found on many of the guards stationed at Nazi concentration camps. But, hey, at least Platner didn’t have a Jewish Cross adorning his body! That would be bad!

Democrats don’t really care if their candidate has a Nazi tattoo…or wishes for the death of his political opponent and his opponent’s children. All they care about is power. Over us. Period. Because, you know, they are anti-authoritarian and anti-fascist. Ergo, even if Platner-- who espouses essentially Communistic ideas-- happens to sport a Nazi tattoo, they are not upset, confused or conflicted.

Most of today’s Democrats are liars. They are gas-lighters. They are projectionists. Many suffer from extreme ignorance. Some are out-and-out evil. Sadly, it doesn’t always—or even often—preclude them from winning elections, as a significant percentage of the electorate mimics their ignorance and lack of character.

Yet, a juxtaposition such as this clearly shows that, despite their rhetoric, they detest Christians more than they despise fascists.

Much like they prefer illegal aliens to American citizens.

 

England Seeking To Censor Americans (Again)

 

Incredibly, the U.K. wants to enforce its draconian censorship laws in the United States. Take to the internet or social media to criticize the LGBTQ community or Islam? You may be paid a visit by the constabulary. Criticize the U.K.’s leaders? You might get to visit Scotland yard. Criticize gay, trans, or Muslim U.K. leaders? God help you. (Not that many people in formerly Jolly Olde England believe in the God of the Bible anymore. Which may explain the current state of affairs in Britain.)

It is utterly preposterous that any nation, let alone one as diminished yet allegedly tolerant as England, would seek to enforce and impose its own anti-speech, anti-freedom agenda on a foreign land. Talk about digital colonization and cultural imperialism! What chutzpah! Sadly—tragically-- this from a nation that not so long ago brought to the world numerous ideas and principles that led to greater justice, freedom, and recognition of inherent individual rights.

And now this nation is bullying many of its own citizens…and apparently hoping to bully us here in “the States,” as well.

Memo to the U.K. authorities: Bugger off, blokes! We beat you guys—twice-- already, specifically so we could have our freedoms—such as the right to free speech. You sure as hell are not going to take that right from us now. We don’t want to have to go all Andrew Jackson on your backsides, but we will (again) if necessary. So, unclench your knickers and pound sand. Perhaps you’ll question your actions 15 or 20 years from now…when you are ruled by Sharia law. You have completely misjudged what you should and shouldn’t tolerate, mates!

(I wrote this last paragraph in larger font…so the King, Prime Minister, and their henchmen can read it without their glasses. 😉)

 

 

Germany, Europe Under Siege

 

Per a recent report in (U.K.’s) The Telegraph:

“The Taliban has demanded that its flag fly over the Afghan embassy in Berlin. The regime wants to replace the Afghan national flag with its white flag with black writing, which is an Islamic declaration of faith.”

The Telegraph added, “In July, Germany struck an agreement with the Taliban to deport dozens of Afghans back to Kabul, including sex offenders, violent criminals and failed asylum seekers. But while in Berlin for discussions about the deal, Taliban envoys also made demands about the embassy, which put Germany in a difficult position, not least because of the flag’s association with extremist activity. Any pushback by Berlin could sabotage a deal that has made Germany one of the first European countries to deport Afghans and make progress towards addressing tensions around migration that have led to the rise of far-Right politicians.”

Here’s an idea for Germany: grow some bleeping balls and tell the Taliban “NO!” And also continue to deport illegal aliens, Afghans or not, regardless of what any foreign entity might say. Verstehen Sie? Meine liebe Gott in himmel, stop embarrassing yourself! Seek a little dignity!

Should the U.S. allow Antifa/BLM/white supremacists (if we could find any) to fly their flags over American embassies? (Sadly, the LGBTQ community already has previously been allowed to do so.) How about the Weather Underground? Communist Party USA? Another red flag? Freak flag? White flag?

Memo to all Western nations: you are not being “welcoming.” You are not being “open-minded.” You are not being “inclusive.” You are not being “tolerant.” You are being conquered.

Grow a spine and act accordingly. 

 

Canadians To Lose Their Homes To Small Band Of Semi-Nomadic "Indigenous" People?

 

Could some Canadian homeowners soon be evicted due to a recent controversial court ruling?

Apparently, it’s no longer enough to simply issue trite land acknowledgments thanking the descendants of Stone Age peoples "for allowing us to meet and learn together on their territory." Apparently, it is no longer enough to acknowledge that, say, “we stand here on stolen lands that originally belonged to the [insert your local indigenous peoples’ name here], who have made immeasurably great contributions to every facet of life in our [nation/region/province/state/community].”

Due to an August ruling by Justice Barbara Young of the B.C. Supreme Court, residents of Richmond, British Columbia, could conceivably have to give up their homes and hit the road. After an extraordinarily lengthy trial and hearings that spanned more than a decade, Young ruled that the Cowichan Tribes have aboriginal title to the land in question. According to The Blaze, the Cowichan Tribes, which consist of around 5,500 souls, “brought a legal action several years ago against the Canadian federal government, the Province of British Columbia, the City of Richmond, and other parties, seeking a declaration of aboriginal title to 1,846 acres of land in Richmond.” How consequential was this ruling? Dwight Newman, a professor of law at the University of Saskatchewan, stated of the tribes: "If the law from this decision were maintained, it would be possible for them to pursue a claim against private residents too. Private residents might have some different defenses, but we don't know how that plays out."

When asked what this could ultimately mean for non-Indian homeowners on the affected parcel of land, Newman added, "The fact I can't give you an answer with any certainty is maybe the most concerning part. This could all play out in various ways." Justice Young’s decision has been appealed by the province of British Columbia, the City of Richmond, and two other Indian tribes.

Only a “progressive” could demand that we welcome any and all illegal immigrants into the U.S. (or Canada, Western Europe, etc.), while at the same time demanding that we read stolen ‘land acknowledgement’ statements and apologize to an erstwhile semi-nomadic “indigenous” people for infringing on their territory.

 

 

Leftists Expect You To Die For Their Country

 

Abortion. Medical-assistance-in-dying (MAID). “Gender-affirming care” that leaves people impotent/infertile. Importing millions of military-age males from Muslim countries. Defunding the police. Cashless bail. Recidivism. Attempts to greatly constrict or repeal the Second Amendment rights of Americans that allow them to bear arms and defend themselves. Gun-free zones. The occasional assassination. Mandatory, yet experimental, mRNA “vaccines.” Lockdowns. Shelter in place, but don’t go outside. Islam is a religion of peace. Diversity is our strength. Tolerance is everything.

However, your country is bad. And you are a bigot, homophobe, transphobe, xenophobe, sexist, racist piece of deplorable trash. Fascist. Actually Hitler. Maybe worse. And there is no God.

 

James Bond (MAGA Republicans): “Do you expect me to talk?”

Goldfinger (Democrats): “No, Mr. Bond, I expect you to die!”

 

As do the “progressive” elitists, insofar as they essentially expect/encourage all of us who don’t agree with them to die, one way or another.

Ergo, we see mind-blowingly bizarre, crackpot, evil theories and ideas such as genetically engineering ticks to spread a disease making people violently ill if they eat red meat. Or the desire to dispense with emergency inhalers for asthmatics, people with pneumonia, and others with lung disease.

Do not doubt the fact that all of these things are connected. It is the only conceivable reason why the hyper-secular have joined with the invading Muslim hordes.

James Hodgkinson, Thomas Matthew Crooks, Ryan Routh, Luigi Mangione, Tyler Robinson, Jay Jones, and a host of other insane leftists are among those who have shot Republicans or have wished for their death. Incredibly, Mangione is considered a hero by many on the left, and Jones is still apparently a viable candidate to become the next attorney general of Virginia.

The Left believes only in destruction and death. Yours and mine.

As recently deceased author P.J. O’Rourke so perfectly noted years ago, in a chapter title addressing overpopulation (in his book All the Trouble in the World: The Lighter Side of Overpopulation, Famine, Ecological Disaster, Ethnic Hatred, Plague, and Poverty), to leftists there is “Just Enough Of Me, Way Too Many Of You.”

The Left demands tolerance for its inanity, lies, and perversions, but has none for those who don’t share them. Conservatives do not wish to be kings, but the Left craves power like a junkie craves a fix. Republicans aren’t violent authoritarians. The same cannot be said of far too many Democrats.

Decision Making, Sense Of Urgency Are RACIST!

 

The new executive director of the Midwest Independent Booksellers Association (MIBA), Grace Hagen-- who is also a DEI trainer-- was recently interviewed by Publisher’s Weakly Weekly.

The fine folks at PW posed this question to her first: How does your work as an anti-racism trainer with social justice organizations inform your current position at MIBA?

Hagen replied: Decision making sometimes has a sense of urgency that is a part of white supremacy culture. That urgency has us making decisions that aren’t always inclusive or else we don’t think about the impact on everyone else, on different kinds of groups.

Yes, decision making is white supremacy, especially those decisions made with a sense of urgency. Better to make no decisions at all, or at least to put them off as long as possible, lest you risk offending minorities or the otherwise marginalized! Deciding what to do with your life? Whether to change jobs? If you should ask your beloved to marry you? Whether to tell your doctor about your chest pain? And, should you eat at Burger King or Olive Garden tonight? Cut it out or put those decisions off, racist!

And we know that any decisions minorities make, spur-of-the-moment or not, are 100% non-bigoted, non-racist, non-whateverphobic, and always correct.

Speaking of questionable decisions, authorities in North Carolina have arrested—and released—an unnamed 15-year-old Charlotte male 111 times. Since August of 2023. Let me repeat that: this person has been arrested 111 times in the past 26 months, for crimes including vehicle thefts, larcenies from cars, robberies, and possession of stolen property. This equates to roughly 7.4 arrests every year since he was born, and over 4.27 arrests per month since August of 2023. Astounding. Many of us struggle to be arrested even once in our lifetimes. This remarkably prolific young criminal has been linked to about 50 separate cases involving at least 55 stolen vehicles and 45 break-ins.

I’m sure that all of these thefts, larcenies, and break-ins have been mostly peaceful, though!

In any case, no matter the chaos and pain he may be causing, he cannot be held for long, as that would be as racist as expecting folks to observe the law.

Denver Minister Says Abortion "Protects The Life Of Children"

 

Kurt Kaufman currently works as a “ministerial associate” at First Baptist Church of Denver.

In a now viral video posted by Protestia (@Protestia on ‘X’), the gay pseudo-pastor stated: “Being in favor of reproductive rights first and foremost protects the life of the mother, and protects the life of the person that is already living, and is the person that is able to bring more life into this world should they choose.”

Incredibly, Kaufman went on to state that killing babies in the womb actually “protects the life of children” because there are “so many children that currently exist in this world that were forced to be born because of legislation, because of men that have decided for women. And so as a result, many children have grown up into an unsupportive, unhealthy, and outright-challenging household that hasn’t been a life that any child should live. And so, being in favor of reproductive choice helps the life of children everywhere, because they don’t have to grow up in a world that dislikes them because they simply exist.”

Gob-smacked. Horrified. Saddened.

I used to laugh at folks who thought something(s) were put into the COVID “vaccines” to alter our thinking and behavior. Now I’m not so sure they weren’t right. Where to begin? I will try to take things in order.

Abortion doesn’t “protect the life of the mother” in the vast majority of cases. It simply erases the consequences of her actions. It is illogical, to say the least, to kill the existing life in a mother so that she may bring a life into being later, should she then decide not to have another abortion.

 

Stating that abortion “protects the life of children” is virtually identical to stating that “murder protects the life of those murdered.” It is an insane assertion.

All of us alive were “forced to be born” because we couldn’t ask to be born, couldn’t make ourselves. And virtually all of us on this planet are here “because of men that have ‘decided’ for women.” Thank God. Literally.

Has there ever been anyone that grew up in a household-- or time or place-- that wasn’t “challenging?”

Finally, the vast majority of people adore babies, pamper them, play with them, teach them. The comment referencing “a world that dislikes them because they simply exist” would be a much more fitting description of how many view Jews. Or conservatives.

Somewhere, Orwell fainted.

 

Researchers Float Idea Of Using Ticks To Reduce Consumption Of Red Meat, Combat Climate Change

 

There have been countless examples of liberalism being a mental disorder. Here is another one:

Two researchers from Western Michigan University have written a paper titled “Beneficial Bloodsucking,” which was published by the journal Bioethics this past July. (No, it isn’t about vampires.) The paper argues that intentionally spreading alpha-gal syndrome (AGS), a potentially life-threatening allergy to red meat, could be not only morally defensible, but perhaps even necessary, in order to reduce animal suffering and combat climate change. Here are the authors, Parker Crutchfield and Blake Hereth, in their own words:

“Because promoting tickborne AGS prevents something bad from happening, doesn’t violate anyone’s rights, and promotes virtuous action or character, it follows that promoting tickborne AGS is strongly pro tanto (‘to that extent’) morally obligatory.”

Say what?!

Enlisting genetically engineered ticks to curb the consumption of hamburgers, steaks, and other red meats violates the hell out of everyone’s rights. It is a “bad” thing in and of itself. Ticks can carry Lyme disease, as well, which also can be deadly. Who do they think they are? They have no right to force others to give up red meat…or drive a Prius for that matter, whether it be via overt or covert acts.

As one might expect, there were numerous negative online comments, prompting Crutchfield to characterize the paper as “just a thought experiment and not an endorsement of spreading the allergy-causing ailment.”  A thought experiment?! The hell it was! The authors actually wrote that promoting tickborne AGS is “morally obligatory.”

Those in the “Earth would be better off if there were nobody here but me” crowd are enough to make the rest of us sick. Pointy-headed academic asshats who live in a lab and/or bubble have already caused far too much damage. These two really ticked me off. In fact, I’m seeing red (meat).

 

 

Toronto School Plays "O Canada" In Arabic

              Steve Yee, the principal of Earl Haig Secondary School in Toronto, has apologized for that school playing “O Canada,” the Canadian National Anthem, in Arabic. On the anniversary of the October 7 Hamas terror attacks on Israel. He claimed, “this was not done with any ill intent.” Well hear Yee, hear Yee, that sounds like so much bullshit. The playing of the Canadian National Anthem in Arabic is hard enough to believe. That the first time this ever happened in the entirety of Canadian history just happened to be on October 7^th cannot possibly be a coincidence.

It is distressing to witness the increasingly rapid surrender of the late great British Empire to Mohammedan hordes. These immigrants do not seek integration but conquest. And they take advantage of the suicidal empathy (to quote Gad Saad) of the hyper-woke to help them achieve their goals. They now even openly mock the “infidels” they are pushing aside.

Did any schools in the U.S. play ‘The Star-Spangled Banner’ with German lyrics on May 8^th, 1947? Did ‘Deutschland Über Alles’ ring out and echo through the halls of any American high school or college? I was in school for many of the Cold War years and don’t remember the Internationale or State Anthem of the Soviet Union emanating from any of my schools’ loudspeakers or intercoms.

To call this occurrence disturbing is an understatement. It was an inside job, yet more evidence of the ideological indoctrination and intellectual rot that pervades our school systems. It is a cancer that must be removed if the West has a future.

Those in charge of public education in Canada, the United States, and several other Western nations, don’t give a rat’s ass about children and students. They are singularly driven by a perverse agenda.

Therefore, it would not surprise me if some elementary school(s) blasted Nicki Minaj’s ‘Anaconda’ or Cardi B’s ‘WAP’ through its sound system during Phy Ed classes or recess.

This is not a fluke. Like the COVID lockdowns and school closures, the diminution of parents and the family, and the almost manic desire to provide “gender-affirming care,” this is an assault on our children. And on the West in general.

For the moment, The Left is utilizing two very strange bedfellows to advance its agenda: hyper-secular progressives and fundamental Islamists, neither of whom were endemic to Western nations, particularly those of the New World. If these nations don’t soon wake up, their history, identity, and values will soon be erased. Hope, too.

 

 

 

Mascot Madness: Franklin And Marshall College To Dispense With Franklin And Marshall

 

Franklin & Marshall College in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, is looking for a new mascot. Apparently, the old mascots, founding father Benjamin Franklin and U.S. Supreme Court Chief Justice John Marshall are no longer considered suitable. Ergo, the private school initiated a Mascot Working Group, whose page recently read in part: "Our goal is to give it a form that is fun, gender-neutral, and full of personality.” (At this point, “gender-neutral” and “fun” may be oxymorons.)

The school has since de-emphasized the gender-neutral aspect of the change and focused on the fun aspect and the desire to “bring renewed energy and enthusiasm to campus and athletic events.”

In reply to a Blaze News query, the school sent the following missive:

Our intention has always been to identify a mascot that reflects the public leadership and spirit of Ben Franklin and John Marshall as our namesakes and to be inspired by our mascot, the Diplomat. The decision to create a new physical form for the mascot is an opportunity to represent our community spirit in a way that will champion F&M on campus, on the athletic field, and beyond. Ben Franklin didn’t reflect the public leadership and spirit of…Ben Franklin?! In addition to being an inventor, printer, and discoverer of electricity, Ben Franklin was America’s first real diplomat, acting as Ambassador to France for seven years.

Franklin and Marshall College, located in Franklin’s home state of Pennsylvania, was founded in 1787, the same year the Constitution was ratified-- the founding document that Franklin signed. The school says it has no plans to change its name, just its mascot(s), which it says should “Take the form of creatures, animals, and figures, which is very typical of mascots for universities and sports teams.” Franklin and Marshall were figures, too, but whatever.

I have the following suggestions for the school’s new mascot and potential logo/nickname:

*A lightning bolt. A nod to Franklin’s shocking discovery that would certainly bring renewed energy to campus athletic events. (See also, Los Angeles Chargers.)

*RuPaul. What’s not to like?

*A peacock. A perfect representation of the school’s virtue signaling and strutting. Go peacocks, go!

*A Quaker.

*A worm. An invertebrate, just like the school’s leaders!

In recent years, universities across the fruited plain have considered changing their mascots and nicknames, and several have done so. You might even call it mascot madness. But what’s in a name anyways, right?

Vatican Apostolic Library Creates Muslim Prayer Room

              Apparently, when Pope Leo isn’t busy blessing a block of ice, he is approving prayer rooms for Muslim scholars visiting the Vatican Apostolic Library. Fr. Giacomo Cardinali, Vice Prefect, told the Italian newspaper La Repubblica, “Some Muslim scholars have asked us for a room with a carpet for praying and we have given it to them.” How very inclusive of them.

Actually, that’s apostasy. But, incredibly, today’s Vatican appears more willing to offend Christians than Muslims and more terrified of engaging in apostasy against the world view of The Left/progressives than of the dictates of their own religion. This is disturbing to say the least. Care to guess how many Christian prayer rooms there are in the rapidly growing number of Mosques around the world? The correct answer is “zero,” because Muslims are mandated by Mohammed to convert, enslave, or kill infidels. It is likely just a matter of time before priests, pastors-- and the Pope himself—start ending statements with “Allahu Akhbar!”

In related news, Muslim jihadist groups have been waging relentless campaigns of violence against Christians in Africa for years now. They have burned villages, destroyed tens of thousands of churches, and wiped out entire communities.

In fact, just since 2009, more than 100,000 Christians have been killed, and at least 18,000 churches destroyed. The Catholic bishops of Nigeria held a meeting last month, after which they stated: “Our nation may collapse if the current situation lingers.” (Maybe these Nigerian Christians failed to offer prayer rooms to Muslims before they were killed and their churches immolated.)

And no one seems to care. The mainstream media can’t be troubled to dedicate precious airtime to the slaughter of a measly 100,000 followers of Christ when there are rascally Republicans to slander and libel. And those rascally Republicans don’t seem to be all that choked up about it, either, mimicking the silence of their Democrat colleagues.

From Front Page Magazine:

What’s happening in Nigeria involves more than just hatred of Christians. There are tribal wars. There is widespread corruption. There is also — and this is something that is necessarily a priority of the bishops — a dabbling in the occult, a lot of which has to do with abysmal education.

Hatred of Christians, tribal wars, widespread corruption, abysmal education—and a dabbling in the occult? Does that sound familiar? That is a dead-on description of what leftists have wrought in America. But, in America, Trump has brought us hope.

Nigerians have hope, too. As Christians, we all do. Thank the Lord.

 

 

Foster Parents Lose License When They Decline To Affirm Lies (A Blogger Exclusive)

 

From Life Site News (lifesitenews.com):

CBS News reported that Lydia and Heath Marvin, who currently have three teens and have fostered eight kids under age four since 2020, lost their license in April when they refused to sign the state Department of Children & Families’ (DCF) LGBTQIA+ Non-Discrimination Policy, which requires of foster families “ability and willingness to support and affirm LGBTQIA+ children placed in their care.” They appealed the judgment but have been denied.

Lydia and Heath refused to affirm that boys can be girls and girls can be boys? What if the Massachusetts couple refused to affirm gravity? Would that make it less real? What if they did affirm that red lights and green lights on traffic signals are actually “fluid” and are “arbitrarily assigned” upon installation? Would that belief be more likely to lead to liberation or chaos and carnage? What if they refused to affirm tax laws? Or that the Earth is round?

You can dismiss reality or embrace it. You can deny the truth or accept it. The choice—and the consequences—are up to you. Reality is reality and the truth is the truth regardless of our wishes.

And there is nothing arbitrary about that.

 

Two Churches Vandalized; One Asked To Be Defaced

 

A church in Alabama was recently vandalized with spray-painted messages reading, "Bryan Dawson serves the Antichrist" and "Beware his falsehoods." Dawson was the keynote speaker for that evening’s Turning Point USA event at the sanctuary.

Lori Adgate, one of the church’s senior pastors, told local affiliate WAFF-TV that she and her husband, the church’s other senior pastor, were shocked but not surprised by the vandalism. Pastor Adgate said, "It doesn't even really make sense to me what the messages are. I honestly wish they would've just contacted us because I would love to hear the heart behind what they're saying."

She is far too tolerant and forgiving in this writer’s opinion. And I do not mean that as a backhanded compliment. The message does make sense, the vandal hates Turning Point USA and everything for which it stands: faith, family, and freedom. “The heart behind” what the vandal was saying is small and black. As always with “progressives,” the message is pure projection. If anyone here serves the Antichrist, it is the vandal, not Dawson.

            By contrast, the Church of England didn’t wait for vile leftist thugs to vandalize its most famous, beautiful and historic cathedral, opting to proactively seek to be debased. It invited “marginalized” groups to deface the sanctuary with colorful graffiti, mocking the Church itself—and God—in the process. The “art exhibit,” titled “Hear Us,” at the U.K.’s Canterbury Cathedral features temporary graffiti questioning God's goodness. According to a press release from the cathedral itself: “This project focuses on partnering with marginalised communities—such as Punjabi, black and brown diaspora, neurodivergent, and LGBTQIA+ groups—to collaboratively create handwritten literature responding to the question, ‘What would you ask God?’"

The Canterbury Cathedral’s dean, the Very Rev. David Monteith, approved the project. That is Very disturbing.

"Are you there?" and "Why did you create hate when love is by far more powerful?" are among the mocking questions the exhibit poses. The entire shameless endeavor is headed up by Alex Vellis, a “poet” who identifies as a queer vegan and uses they/them pronouns. If you ask me, he “identifies” as a poet, too—if you know what I mean.

Other pertinent inane questions include, "Does everything have a soul?" and "Do you regret your creation?" (Personally, I would guess His answer would be “yes” to the first question and “no” to the latter…until I think of Adam Schiff and company, which makes me think there is at least a small chance the answers could be “no” and “yes,” respectively.)

The messages framed as questions abound, and also include, "Is illness sin?"; "Why all the suffering?"; and, "If you made us all in your own form, why the violence killing storm?"

The questions I would ask the Very Rev. are, “Why this exhibit?” and “Why deliberately humiliate your own church?” Unfortunately, however, I believe I know the answers.

God help England. Although at this point I’m not sure why He would.

 

Democrat Representative Lashes Out At Reporter For Asking Questions

 

Elderly Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) recently lashed out at reporter Alison Steinberg outside of the Capitol. Waters was upset that Steinberg pressed her on whether the Democrat Party’s demands placed non-citizens ahead of American citizens and on why Democrats would risk a government shutdown to secure health care for illegal immigrants.

The reporter queried Rep. Waters, asking, “So, you’re good with the government shutdown, even if it means giving health care to people who aren’t Americans?”

Waters replied, “Well, you keep, that’s what you’re pushing on. What you’re trying to do is you’re standing here and you’re trying to make me say that somehow we’re going to put non-citizens over Americans. Quit it. Stop it. This is the kind of journalism we don’t need.”

Au contraire Mad Max, this is precisely the kind of journalism we do need (and it is sadly incredibly rare these days). Actual journalism, not agenda affirmation. The latter isn’t journalism at all, it is misinformation, propaganda, indoctrination. In other words, FAKE NEWS. It is covering for “your guys” when they’re in power, and incessantly and mindlessly trashing the other guys when they are in office. It is pathetic. And dangerous to a purportedly free republic. It is, in fact, part of the reason for the rapid decline of Western Civilization in recent years. That is not hyperbole.

A free society truly does need a free and unbiased press, because a free society can only long exist with an educated and informed people. The press has two jobs: 1) to inform citizens (not indoctrinate them), and 2) when necessary, to hold the feet of the powerful to the fire.

The existing mainstream media, in the U.S. and in far too many nations abroad, is utterly and preposterously agenda-driven and therefore utterly without credibility. It/they distort, ignore, gaslight, highlight, project, or flat out lie to further the power (and corruption) of leftist politicians and to damage the prospects of conservative ones. Nothing else matters to them, least of all veracity and fairness. And so they are able to lavishly praise the exact same actions and thoughts that originate with “their guy” that they mercilessly attack when originated by the other guy (generally a Republican, or anyone to the right of Mao Zedong). And still sleep soundly at night.

The Left’s “long march through the institutions,” incepted in the late ‘60s and early ‘70s, has been remarkably successful. But it is finally getting effective pushback. And it disdains that, cannot tolerate that, will not countenance that. So it lashes out. Demonizes. Projects. And worse. Moreover, it ludicrously labels conservatives “intolerant,” “hateful,” “anti-democratic,” “fascistic,” and “authoritarian.” All the things that it so self-evidently is. The Left wants to pack the court, ban the filibuster, get rid of the Electoral College, make the federal city of D.C. a state, weaponize lawfare, rig elections, smear opponents (and possibly assassinate them.) Additionally, it does not much care for the Bill of Rights, particularly the First and Second Amendments to the Constitution, which were explicitly designed by the Founders to protect you and I from government overreach.

I often wonder how we could possibly have gone from Washington, Adams, Jefferson, Franklin, and Madison to the likes of Waters, Pelosi, Schumer, Schiff, and Omar. Darwin has some explaining to do.

Disturbed Arsonist Set Bible On Fire Months Before His Actions May Have Caused The Palisades Fire

 

29-year-old Uber driver Jonathan Rinderknecht hiked to a trailhead near Topanga State Park as it neared midnight on December 31^st, 2024. According to investigators, he then used a lighter to ignite the bone-dry brush, causing flames to spread rapidly and race toward nearby homes as Rinderknecht watched.

That fire was extinguished by the Los Angeles Fire Department but apparently continued burning--unseen and undetected-- in root systems underground. According to the San Francisco Chronicle:

It then rekindled on Jan. 7 and grew into the Palisades Fire, one of the most destructive wildfires in California history, killing 12 people and laying waste to the affluent Los Angeles community that is home to many members of Hollywood royalty. Thousands of people fled the flames.

The Chronicle again:

Months before the Lachman Fire ignited, Rinderknecht confided in a family member that he had burned a Bible, according to the affidavit, written and signed by an investigator with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, whose name was redacted. He was reportedly exhilarated by the experience and confided in ChatGPT: "I literally burnt the Bible that I had. It felt amazing. I felt so liberated."

Just because you gleefully burn a Bible doesn’t mean the truths it contains no longer apply or exist. And, in this case, doing so made many thousands of others go through hell. Rinderknecht needlessly yet deliberately subjected all of these folks to an inferno on Earth. In so doing, he may have sentenced himself to a hellish prison and eternal inferno.

How “liberating” is that?!

 

Danish Government Forced Greenland's Inuit Females To Use Contraception?

 

Per Life Site News (lifesitenews.com):

The Danish government forced contraceptives onto the population of Greenland for decades, an investigation revealed. In the 1960s and ’70s, thousands of Inuit women and girls were fitted with intra-uterine devices (IUDs) by Danish doctors as part of a government program to prevent them from reproducing. A few cases of forced contraception took place after the 1970s as well, and as late as 2018, the BBC reported.

WTH?!

Greenland was Denmark’s bitch a colony of Denmark until 1953, though it has gradually gained more independence over the past several decades. However, it is still an autonomous territory within the Kingdom of Denmark.

(Greenlanders, I’d suggest you reconsider President Trump’s offer to make you part of the American experiment. Especially because we don’t force our people—indigenous or not—to use contraceptives or have abortions. We’re kinda cool that way. And we believe euthanasia isn’t cool.)

Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen did subsequently issue an apology, saying, “We cannot change what has happened. But we can take responsibility.” She added, “On behalf of Denmark, I would like to say sorry.” Sorry?!

Translation: “Frightfully sorry (we got caught). Oops. Hate that when that happens. We never really meant to forcefully sterilize the indigenous peoples. I mean, sometimes things just fall through the cracks.”

Why is no one calling Frederiksen and her ilk Hitlers, nazis, and fascists? “We love our indigenous peoples, it’s just that sometimes we forcefully sterilize them so they cannot reproduce. But, we long ago and unequivocally discontinued that program, I think, except for a relatively brief period in 2018.”

 

Drag Queens, Marxists, Islam, And Western Decline

Drag queen “Aubrey Ghalichi,” whose real name is Michael Browder, was recently pulled from a Pride parade and arrested after he confessed to having sex with a 13-year-old child he met on a dating app. Bowder was charged with two counts of sexual conduct with a minor according to court records that were reviewed by KNXV-TV. During a Sept. 16 interview, Browder reportedly admitted to police that he had, in fact, had sex with the boy, however he claimed to have believed the lad was of legal age. He added that it was so dark in his apartment that it was difficult to ascertain the boy's age. Well then, if a guy can’t tell if someone else is of age or not in a guy’s own really dark apartment, just have at it rather than, say, turning the lights on or exercising even a modicum of judgement, restraint, and decency. Guess drag queens gotta drag queen, right?

And, we have to remember to be “culturally sensitive.” Like Zohran Mamdani, who, through a 77 WABC review of Mamdani’s writings, has revealed that, though he once witnessed a series of brutal rapes and sexual assaults in Egypt, he declined to intervene due to cultural sensitivity, stating that “the last thing Egyptians needed was a well-meaning foreigner’s assistance.” Quite.

Oddly, everyone seems to be pro-Palestine/Gaza/Islam these days. Even Rome is bowing to MECCA. The Vatican is now providing a prayer carpet for Muslims. Moreover, though Christian churches have been vandalized and desecrated throughout much of Europe, many smeared with Islamic expressions such as “Allahu akbar,” the Vatican appears entirely unconcerned if not actually supportive. This has prompted Hans-Georg Maaßen, former head of Germany’s domestic intelligence agency, to note the consequences of such madness. Maaßen stated: “The Europeans will succumb to Islam. On the one hand, because they are unable to even see this conflict coming, and on the other, because they are incapable of resolving conflicts in a similar fashion. The end result will be the gradual destruction of our European cultures.” These Catholic Quislings are doing for Europe today what Vichy France did for Europe in World War II. Insanity.

But there is a great deal of insanity going around these days. (There is actually a group called “Gays for Palestine.”) Take, for instance, the fact that a July poll showed that 43% of New York City’s Jews-- and 67% of its Jews between 18 and 44-- support mayoral candidate Mamdani, who is a Muslim Marxist that refuses to condemn the statements “globalize the intifada” and “from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.” Jews for Mamdani! Gays for Gaza! Feminists for Islam!  Craft brewers for prohibition! Hunters & Fishermen for PETA!  Lakeshore Owners for Invasive Species!  Entrepreneurs for Communism! Priests for perversion! Beam me up, Scotty.

But wait, that’s not all! (It never is.) Per Life Site News:

The Niagara Regional Police [force] is facing a Human Rights Tribunal complaint from a transgender-identifying man who is angry that an officer asked for his original male name in order to identify him. He is (predictably) asking to be awarded financial compensation of $30,000 and re-education for the police.

Because “deadnaming” is a form of actual violence. And the man prefers to be called Sabrina Hill. So, remember, it is “violence” to ask a tranny their real name, but it is not violence if you “accidentally” rape a 13-year-old. Or, apparently, if you happen to be a card-carrying (or AK-15-carrying) member of “The Religion of Peace,” even if you deliberately do so.

It is long past time everyone in the West re-learns Judeo-Christian values and its corresponding work ethic and regains the spine to stand up for them. None more so than Jewish and Christian leaders. If we/they do not, we will deserve the dark and bloody fate we have engendered.
