Iran, Gun Control, And The Future Of The U.S.

 

Make no mistake, the tragedy that is unfolding in Iran today was predicated on the new Islamic regime disarming the people in the 1980s. Prior to 1979, most Iranians were Western in apparel, appearance, and outlook. Then the mullahs took over and took away the citizens’ right to own firearms (though the unalienable right-- granted by our Creator-- to defend oneself can never truly be repealed or cancelled…it can only be ceded, relinquished.) Now the women are in burkas and only the IRGC gas guns. It can—and does—happen that quickly.

Much the same thing has happened in England in recent years, and people are now getting arrested for tweets and memes. Other nations, such as Canada, are imposing ever stricter “gun control” laws. The Left in the United States is desperate to disarm Americans, and, as more and more of them get elected, they will do so…if we let them.

The most sinister aspect of the push for gun control is the fact, unreported by the mainstream media, that Democrats and other Leftists deliberately create the conditions that push people to commit crimes and acts of violence. They foment envy, divisiveness and hate. They sow confusion and obfuscate truth. In so doing, they push for gender insanity and foster and nurture mental illness.

Their policies deliberately grow poverty and dependence, the very things leftists seize upon to capture disaffected, ignorant, and indoctrinated voters. They know their rhetoric is incendiary. And they have no intention of ever making things better for anyone but themselves, as they utilize the very problems they create to convince people that they are sorely needed…to address those problems. And then they purport to mourn the tragic shootings their policies have wrought. This is despicable. This is depraved. This is sheer, unadulterated evil.

The Democrat party has morphed into the Democratic-Socialist Party, but it has kept—if not augmented—its propensity for enslaving people.

Any person, group, or government entity that purports to want to take away your Second Amendment rights for the “safety” of others is lying, no matter the type or quantity of firearms one might own. They are not doing it for “gun control.” That is a myth. They do this because they want to control you and I.

Don’t let them take your guns. Don’t let them take away your right to protect yourselves and your loved ones. Because that is simply a ruse to take away your freedom. It isn’t gun control they want. It is human control. They want to be able to control you. They want the unchallenged power to determine the future, and want to make sure you aren’t in the way.

If we give up our guns, we may soon find ourselves residing in a Marxist state, our wives in burkas, and ourselves in prison.

 

Trump Now Coming To Terms With The Memo Of Misunderstanding?

 

As I wrote in a June 20^th article posted right here on this illustrious site, the Memo of Understanding (MOU) President Trump agreed to with what remains of Iran’s leaders was a recipe for disaster. There was—and is-- no way Iran was/is going to abide by any agreement. The leaders had—and have—only two goals: to survive, and to embarrass Trump and the U.S.

I wrote:

“Trump could’ve called victory and gone home after the U.S. military knocked the hell out of the Iranians in the first few weeks, further degrading its nuclear program. Or he could’ve kept on blasting them to smithereens until the job was finished. And it could have been. Instead, panicked by the upcoming mid-term elections and the high price of oil/gasoline, he chose the third way. Which is no way at all.”

I called the agreement “unconditional surrender,” and “unilateral capitulation,” and predicted: “What’s left of the mullahs and the IRGC will do whatever it wants, including executing any citizens known to have been sympathetic to the Americans. That unspoken guarantee is the only one they will uphold. Understand that.”

But now, in a bizarre irony, Iran’s leaders, whoever they may be, have thrown Trump and the U.S. a lifeline to recapture their dignity. By ignoring the MOU and continuing to attack ships in the Strait of Hormuz and neighboring states, no matter the threats from Trump, they have permitted the president to finally declare: "It's just a waste of time dealing with them. They're scum.”

There are those that believe this was Trump’s plan all along, that he knew Iran would behave this way and he would then be vindicated in his former and future actions. I wish I could believe that.

In any case, at this point, President Trump should simply say that negotiating with the effing asshats-- the ignorant savages currently in control of Iran-- is a ridiculous and impossible endeavor for a rational person or nation to engage in. And that therefore we’re going to deal with them in the only manner they recognize and respect, the only way that could produce an end result: bomb them back into the Stone Age. But even that is problematic because those (nominally) in control in Iran are already there.

Still, tragically, it appears the only potentially viable option is to bomb the living crap out of them until the stupid bleeping mullahs, the subhumans in the IRGC, and the rest of the thugocracy are no more.

Trump should clearly and publicly state that “This is our last negotiating position and there won’t be another one. Thank you for your attention to this matter.”

That would be the art of this deal.  

California Gov. Gavin Newsom Trying To Make It A Crime To Foster Election Integrity

 

California’s radical Democrat Governor Gavin “Slick” Newsom is moving forward with legislation to make it a felony for anyone-- or any entity-- seeking to ensure election integrity to inspect ballots before they’ve been “certified” (wink, wink) by his personally chosen state and county officials. In fact, the newly minted tough guy, clearly afflicted by Trump Envy Syndrome (TES), is threatening potential election integrity seekers with prosecution under state law. This is of a piece with the state’s “Stop Nick Shirley Act,” a bill that seeks to make it illegal to investigate rampant fraud in the erstwhile Golden State.

Gruesome Newsom characterized any such election integrity measures as election interference in a recent preposterous video statement posted on ‘X’:

“Let me speak directly to anyone considering helping President Trump interfere with our election or our count: If you violate California’s laws, if you interfere with our voters, tamper with our ballots, or meddle in our election, you will be prosecuted. It doesn’t matter who gave the order. That’s why I’m moving forward with new legislation that would make it a felony to seize ballots before the vote has been certified by state and county officials. We will be the wall he cannot get past because we believe that, once an election is decided, the winner governs for everyone. That’s the architecture of American liberty. Donald Trump—he doesn’t believe in that architecture.”

The greasy governor has no problem violating federal law, with his sanctuary cities and anti-ICE agenda. And how ‘bout making it a felony to “harvest” ballots, bribe and coerce folks to vote, and engage in repeated and mysterious late night ballot dumps?

As for the Dime Store Despot’s purported belief that, after an election is certified, the winner “governs for everyone?” Many in his party and of his political ilk-- as well as numerous Hollywood stars and starlets residing in his state—repeatedly exclaim that Trump “Isn’t my president,” “Resistance is patriotic,” and that they cannot accept Trump as “their” president and therefore must leave the United States. (Tragically, not enough of them follow through on the latter vow.)

California has one of the highest tax rates in the nation…and by far the largest population of homeless people. It dawns on me that Newsom would make a good pimp. He uses and abuses others for his own benefit with absolutely no compunction.

Even a French Laundry couldn’t remove the stains on his character.

 

 

The View's Sunny Hostin Says American Flags Make Her Feel 'Unsafe'

 

The View’s preternaturally ignorant and repulsive Sunny Hostin recently stated: "There are times when I walk into a community and I see American flags all over the community and I suddenly feel unsafe because there's a section of this country that has coopted the American flag and they equate being an American or an American flag with white supremacy and that should never be the symbol of white supremacy, but they have weaponized [it].”

No, Sunny, you have equated the American flag with white supremacy, and you have weaponized it to fit your false narrative. You have attempted to demean it, cheapen it, demonize it…and everyone who fought and died for it. All for cheap praise from morons and Marxists.

I’m guessing Sunny would feel far less safe if she were surrounded by a plethora of North Korean flags, Iranian flags, Russian flags, or perhaps even Antifa flags. If not, she’s even dumber than she appears, which would be truly miraculous.

I feel a bit uneasy, a tad concerned, when I am amongst a bunch of Palestinian flags, as I was at my daughter’s college graduation. Nor do I feel comfortable when mobs of misfits are waving the LGBTQ Flag or Trans Flag in my face. The Satanic Flag/Baphomet Church of Satan Flag gives me the creeps. Any Communist flag makes me sick to my stomach. Conversely, when I am surrounded by Old Glory, I get a sense of place, belonging, and peace. I know that the folks flying them likely recognize and appreciate freedom, history, sacrifice, and the unalienable rights granted to us by our Creator. How could any flag make one feel better than that?

So, “Sunny,” how do you think the American Flag made slaves feel during the Civil War? Guessing the Union banner gave them hope and courage. (Say, didn’t one or more of Sunny’s ancestors own and trade slaves?)

The American Flag has given more hope to more people around the world than any other. That is inarguable. It has made more people feel “safe” and protected than any other. Perhaps if Sunny had been in France when American and allied troops liberated it, she would have known this. Maybe if she had been in Ohrdruf, Dachau, or Buchenwald when American troops liberated those still alive in these Nazi concentration camps, she would feel a bit differently.

The stupefying ignorance of the chattering class is almost impossible to comprehend. It is akin to trying to rationally process the size of the universe. Worse yet, this ignorance is now paired with sheer, unadulterated evil. Those who hate America, Capitalism, entrepreneurship, excellence, decency, the Judeo-Christian work ethic, Christianity, the Founders, limited government, the rule of law, and the concept of unalienable rights granted by our Creator-- among other aspects of a successfully functioning democratic republic—actually despise “democracy,” liberty, tolerance, inclusion, and empathy. Conversely, they worship themselves, and their own hatred of success and competence. And their desire to destroy all that has come before them. In their unique and misplaced attempt to trash history and elevate themselves to deity status, they reveal themselves to be some of the most contemptible and pathetic folks ever to trod the earth.

The Mainstream Media Finally Tries To Cover The Somali Fraud Scandals? (SATIRE- BLOGGER EXCLUSIVE)

*In honor of the totally not made up and legitimate Juneteenth holiday:*

 

MS NOW Anchor: “We’re getting word now of something happening in Minnesota. It apparently involves--- NEVER MIND, that was a false report! On to the burgeoning scandals at the White House. President Trump slandered yet another reporter today, calling her “dumb” after she asked him why he was hell-bent on tearing down the East side of the White House. We go now to reporter Jane Uignorantslut who is on the grounds of the White House. Jane, thank you for your vital work, your dedication and sacrifice…what can you tell us about Trump’s manic desire to destroy history…and The Peoples’ House itself?”

Jane U: “Well, Pat, President Trump seems to delight in attacking both people and places. This assault seems to me particularly grievous and gratuitous, especially as it demolishes part of history, all for a ballroom for the elite. Let them eat cake, I guess.”

MS NOW Anchor: “Jane, we are actually getting a caller on the line now. Please hold on one moment. Go ahead caller. Ask your question about Trump’s mauling of the White House.”

Caller: “Well, actually, I’d like to talk about the staggering Somali fraud in Minnesota. I live in the state and can tell you from firsthand experience that---"

MS NOW Anchors (both of whom immediately cover their ears and start chanting): “The farmer in the dell, the farmer in the dell, hi-ho the derry-o, the farmer in the dell…” over and over and over again until the caller gives up and hangs up.

MS NOW Anchor: “Far-right Republican roustabout Nick Shirley is in California tonight, supposedly exposing the ‘fraud and corruption’ in which he baselessly claims some Somalis and other immigrants have been engaging. The state’s elected officials have heroically responded by putting forth a bill that would criminalize politically-based muckraking of the sort that Shirley has engaged in.”

Other MS NOW Anchor: “Serves him right. California has, in fact, just passed the aptly named ‘Nick Shirley Act’ which effectively criminalizes investigative reporting if it is in any way aimed at the government. I simply can’t overemphasize how important this is to preserving our democracy and enhancing our First Amendment rights and protections.”

Other Other MS NOW Anchor (original anchor): “So true, Bob. We are all Somali tonight, are we not?! In other news, a 26-year-old Muslim Pakistani immigrant allegedly molested a—squirrel!-- sorry, there was an error in our system leading to an incorrect description of both the perpetrator and the alleged crime. What we should have stated is that a far-right Trump supporter and Christian apologist robbed a midtown bank earlier today, all the while shouting “USA! USA!” and “Trump is my Lord and Savior!”

Other MS NOW Anchor (Pat): “I must say, that checks out, Bob. It is just what one would expect a far-right ideologue and Nazi acolyte to say. Gives me the chills. Hail, Satan!”

Bob: “It appears that a fire has just broken out at a Catholic church in Dearborn, Michigan. Authorities apparently suspect…”

Pat: “Well anyway, we now go to reporter Chester E. Dogooder who is downtown at a topless nightclub called ‘Golden Globes.’ Chester?”

Chester E. Dogooder: “Pat…Bob…I am here at Golden Globes, and I must tell you I am aghast—absolutely aghast—at the shameless display of boobies, as well as the throbbing music and not infrequent incidences of ‘dirty dancing,’ if you will. It is now well after 10 PM Eastern Standard Time and I have been here for six hours now. This kind of display, this kind of establishment, would not be tolerated in the Muslim world. Neither the bare flesh, the music, the drinking, nor the happy and amused banter and broad smiles that so permeate this place. Tonight, I’m here to report on the--”

A dancer named “Mercedes” approaches Chester: “Hi, I’m Mercedes, what’s your name, lover?”

Chester E. Dogooder: “I, um, ah, am Lester darlin’—I mean Chester, ha, ha, ha!”

Mercedes: “Well…Chester…would you like a lap dance?”

Chester: “I, um, ah, oh boy…yes, ma’am! Please!”

Pat: “Anyway, Chester, thanks for that, um, report.” (Turns to Bob and says, “I think we’ve lost Chester.”)

Bob: “Authorities now say that a so-called ‘undocumented migrant’ has been involved with an ‘incident’ involving three goats, a cat, and—"

Pat: “Any old hoo, as always, we bring you expanded weather, sports, and entertainment coverage tonight, in an ever-increasing attempt to deliver what matters most to you! This is MS NOW: All the news on which we care to report. Good night and Allahu Akhbar.”

 

Lessons Unlearned (A Fourth Of July Plea For A Rebirth Of Freedom And Sanity)

 

Exactly ten years ago today, July 4^th 2026, I wrote and posted my take on what six former presidents might wish to say to us on that date. I feel those sentiments would be even more pertinent—and urgent—now, as many of us celebrate the 250^th birthday of the United States.

The country was founded on courage-- sheer, almost preposterous-- courage. The country is being lost through cowardice, indoctrinated ignorance, sloth, entitlement, and sheer evil. The stupidity of open borders, so-called “birthright” citizenship, and generalized amnesty has led to rapid, massive, and disruptive demographic change. And, as Mark Steyn was wont to say, demography is destiny. Period. It should come as no surprise that Jews are being harassed and attacked, and that anti-Christian as well as anti-Jewish violence has skyrocketed in the West. It is no wonder that these new Marxist and Muslim Jacobins hate the United States, its founding, capitalism, Christianity, and its (formerly?) close relations with Israel, God’s chosen people.

The simultaneous growth in the Muslim population and the belief in Socialism-Marxism-Communism is a truly existential threat to the continued existence of the United States of America in specific…and the West in general. Open borders are a recipe for chaos and disaster. And, it turns out, colleges and universities across the fruited plane are naught but domestic “sleeper cells” poisoning the minds of our youth by feeding them inanities and untruths-- and instructing them to hate their own country.

America was founded by those with no navy or formal military taking on the world’s pre-eminent naval and military power…because they believed it was better to perish than yield one’s liberty. And yet here we are today, meekly allowing ourselves to be written out of our own story. There can be only one destination at the end of the road on which we are traveling. Tyrannies, whether Fascism, Communism, Marxism—or any other—cannot allow the belief in God or higher power, because they will not allow the competition. Nothing can be bigger, better, or greater than The State. Their state, not yours, despite their promises. And remember, the bigger the state, the smaller must be the people.

As the six former presidents would say, we better relearn their critical lessons on life and government, and fast, or there will not be a Tricentennial, at least for a country the founders would recognize.

We all know the sun sets in the west. But if strong action isn't taken now, the sun will set on the West. And hope will disappear with it.

Happy Fourth of July! But this year, in addition to enjoying our barbecues and our beer, we need to think, truly and deeply think, about what we can do to make future Fourth of July's better…rather than unrecognizable or unobserved.

Blue Cities Celebrate Somali Independence, Dis American Independence

 

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey celebrated Somali Independence Day. Sister city St. Paul, the state’s capital, raised the Somali flag over its City Hall in honor of Somali independence, a flag that looks suspiciously like the newly adopted Minnesota state flag. Odd. Surely a coincidence.

The Twin Cities weren’t alone in their zeal to celebrate Somali independence. In a recent post, the Columbus, Ohio, Recreation and Parks Department touted plans to recognize the “unification of the Trust Territory of Somaliland and the State of Somaliland into the Somali Republic” in 1960. Yay! The post concluded by stating that “City Hall will be raising the flag of Somalia.” Who says PRIDE! month is over?

But wait, there’s more! Buffalo Mayor Sean Ryan recently confirmed that the city cancelled its (American) Independence Day firework show. However, according to several social media posts, other city officials managed to find time to celebrate Somali Independence Day.

As did, naturally, MS-Now the Somali national News Agency, which stated: “The Somali flag was raised in front of Buffalo City Hall in New York State on 1 July 2026, as the local Somali community gathered to mark Somalia’s Independence Day in a ceremony promoted by a Buffalo city council member.” Touching. These cities might as well fly a white flag, too.

But folks in many municipalities and HOAs across the fruited plane are being told they can’t fly American flags in the lead up to the Fourth of July and 250^th birthday celebration. Why? For excuses as varied as this could upset a neighbor to flapping flags could interfere with the “normal feeding, nesting, or migratory behavior” of birds.

This isn’t suicidal empathy. This is a deliberate, in-our-face, attack on American values and America herself.

The rapid rise of Anti-Americanism coincides, of course, with the commensurate rise in the apparent popularity of socialism and the requisite collapse in religiosity, morality, work ethic, and self-respect of the populace in general, especially affluent, white, college educated people.

At this point, a college degree translates into: a nascent Communist. These people are nothing more than mind-numbed robots. They can’t think for themselves or on their feet. They are unable to debate effectively. They don’t know history, economics, or anything else that matters. They haven’t been educated, they have been poisoned. Their minds are infected with group-think. The brighter ones know their purportedly preferred policies will adversely affect the economy, but don’t care because they think these policies won’t affect them. They believe they are insulated, apart. Thus, their very virtue-signaling reveals their staggering selfishness. They are a mob of morons. Turns out, America’s colleges and universities were the real “sleeper cells” intent on destroying the U.S.

The flags of only one nation should ever be flown near, on, or over American government buildings or property: those of the United States of America. Old Glory, the Gadsen Flag, the Betsy Ross Flag, and the “Appeal to Heaven” flag.

To all of those I pledge allegiance. Happy 250^th.

French Official Blames US For 1,300+ Deaths During Recent Heat Wave

 

Paris’ deputy mayor recently said that the U.S. bears “a significant amount of responsibility” for the deadly heatwave gripping France. Say what? Yeah, you know, because we use more energy than they do, in part to keep ourselves from dying from summer heat. And more energy use must necessarily lead to greater greenhouse gas production, which we all know leads to global warming/climate change, right?

Europeans also blame the United States for gun violence. But, ironically, in a typical year there are far more heat-related deaths in Europe than there are deaths in America from gun violence. And guns save more lives than they take in the U.S., something that can’t possibly be said of the lack of air-conditioning in the E.U.

Blaming the U.S. for the deaths of Europeans who do not have access to air-conditioning is bizarre and pathetic. Their own overlords are responsible. More Americans die annually from overconsumption of French fries and French wine than Frenchmen are killed by Americans use of air-conditioning, the honest total of which would be zero. Dear French folks: hold your own reprehensible asshats responsible.

That many hundreds of Europeans are dying of heat unnecessarily is tragic and totally preventable. Europeans should tell their leaders to stop lavishing spending on Muslim immigrants as if they were drunken sailors on shore leave and instead help them procure air-conditioning.

What Paris’ deputy mayor said isn’t cool. In fact, it’s bullshit (conneries). It’s time the United States significantly turned up the heat, for real, on these Euro-weenie leaders and their preposterous lies and slanders.

It’s summer. Stay cool. If you can. And if your “leaders” allow you to.

Americans' Birthrights Repealed By The Extreme Court Of The United States (ECOTUS)

              And then there were two... suicidally bad decisions by the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS). Democrats don't need to pack the Court, it's already brimming…with idiots. The highest court in the land signed off on birthright citizenship, an utter inanity. Just because someone arrived in the United States only to have a child a day later, does not mean that child is automatically a rock-solid American citizen. Or should be treated as such.

As Utah Senator Mike Lee posted on ‘X’, “If a woman gives birth at the Supreme Court building, is her baby entitled to automatic status as a justice?” This line of “thinking” is literally insane. If the same rights were granted to Americans who invade migrate to other nations, it would be described as colonialism. In a similar vein, what of invasive species? Once a zebra mussel, round gobi, or murder hornet drops some offspring in the good ol’ US of A, should we immediately proclaim them cherished native species?

And what of the reverse? Shouldn't blue states offer “anchor abortions?” That would only be fair and just, right? Come to California, Illinois, New York, Washington, Oregon, or Minnesota and have an abortion and you will be granted your non-birthright citizenship. Why the bleep not? That this isn't already the case just proves the sadistic, twisted Marxists are attempting to change the demographics of this nation as fast as possible so they can attain and retain power until the sun expires. “Save our democracy!”

As a side note, perhaps we should revisit allowing women to serve on the Supreme Court. That includes Justice Roberts. Stupid can’t be fixed, nor can evil. But those who are one or both can be removed. In a matter of hours, Justice Barrett and Justice Roberts, the Twin Twinks, have landed two blows to the nation that will be hard to shake off.

We haven't come to the point where the founders would have said “bleep it, we're taking up arms to save ourselves and our country.” Sadly, we are past that point. Far, far past.

Happy Independence Day... while there still is one and we are still allowed to celebrate it.

Justice Amy Coney Barrett Says There Is No Time Limit For Ballot Counting

 

Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett authored the majority opinion ruling in favor of a Mississippi law allowing mail-in ballots to be counted even if they are received after Election Day. 

The court was split 5-4 on the ruling with the turncoat Barrett, appointed by President Donald Trump, joined by Chief Justice John (“No Balls”) Roberts, as well as the usual Marxists in Black, justices Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan and Ketanji Brown Jackson. The sane minority, including justices Clarence Thomas, Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh, and Samuel Alito were almost certainly shocked and appalled by the outcome.

Barrett’s opinion ignored the fact that federal law seems clear, in that all ballots must be received by Election Day to be counted. Incredibly, Barett’s opinion apparently acknowledged that federal law does mandate that Election Day is the deadline for voters to make a choice as to their preferred candidate, but that there is no standard for when ballots must be received to be considered valid. When the polls close? One week later? One month? A year? Meh. Que sera sera. It’s all good.

(This is like a sporting event where you have 90 minutes to determine a winner, yet goals continue to count for some time after. Oh wait, that’s soccer.)

In his dissent, Justice Samuel Alito stated that Justice Amy Comey Barrett's opinion was clearly inconsistent with the plain text of the laws and of historical practice and precedents, adding that it “risks further undermining Americans' confidence in election integrity." You think?

But SCOTUS rulings are no longer about interpreting the Constitution, legal precedent—or right or wrong—but about advancing a political agenda. This ruling is doubly damaging, as it calls into question the legitimacy of the Supreme Court itself, a disaster for the republic, but also further degrades any possible confidence in election integrity and results, the death knell for a “democracy.” Given the existing political climate and pervasive doubt about the validity of our elections, this ruling is an existential threat to the United States as it approaches its 250^th birthday celebration.

(Moreover, it does nothing good for the reputation of “women in black.” Historical ignorance, flawed logic, and emotional, agenda-driven decisions do not reflect well on those who make them.)

But wait, there’s hope! In late-arriving news, it turns out President Trump has not, in fact, nominated Barrett for the Court. He subsequently decided on Ted Cruz! Barrett’s ruling will be expunged and America has been saved!

 

 

Joy Reid Prefers "Juneteenth" To July 4th, The Date Which Freed Mankind

 

I have a bit more to say about Former MSNBC host Joy Reid and her former colleague Alex Wagner, who recently engaged in an online conversation comparing Independence Day and Juneteenth. Reid stated that “nobody black I know is really excited about the 4th of July” and claimed that her black friends basically treat the Fourth as a day off to barbecue. (That seems racist. Is Reid saying that all blacks like ribs and chicken?)

The Heinous One went on to describe Independence Day as “the celebration of slaveholders who freed themselves from having to pay taxes to the Crown for their slave empire.” Going further, Reid told Wagner that, to many Black Americans, the Fourth of July feels similar to how Indigenous people view Thanksgiving. She added that Juneteenth “to me is the real thing” because the United States “really weren’t a democracy until we ended slavery.”

Much as she might like to, Reid can’t speak for all black folks. And we did end slavery, that peculiar and nearly universal institution, and more than 600,000 people gave all in the effort to do so. Who will pay reparations to those heroes and their families? Upon the conclusion of the American Civil War, more than one hundred other countries still had large-scale forced labor, i.e. slavery. Is that fact routinely taught in American classrooms and bandied about in American media? Why not? Another fact that isn’t routinely taught is that the United States is not a pure “democracy,” but a representative republic, much to Reid’s and Leftists’ chagrin.

The truth is that America’s birth led to the eventual emancipation of not only blacks in the U.S., but of many peoples around the world. Because the unique and original American experiment hinged on the proclamation of a couple remarkable truths. One, that government derives any just powers it may have solely from the will of the people…and that limited government of, by, and for the people with equal justice under the rule of law should be the ideal. And, two, that there are certain unalienable rights that we all have, that have been bestowed upon us by our Creator…and upon which governments cannot infringe.

The extent to which a nation’s government acts in concert with those founding American beliefs largely determines how much liberty and happiness its citizens will enjoy.

Far from Joy Reid’s dismal belief, the U.S. was founded on the idea that all men (people) are created equal. And, to paraphrase Lincoln, we are now truly engaged again in a sort of Cold Civil War, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and dedicated, can long endure. It is of utmost importance to the future of the world that we, here and now, at the looming 250^th birthday of our nation, take increased devotion to the cause of the founders, that we may have a new birth of freedom.

Let freedom ring.

A Call To Prayer?

 

According to LifeSiteNews: “…the Regina City Jamia Masjid mosque did a ‘sound test’ of its call ‘to prayer’ from four loudspeakers, which lasted for about three minutes. The event was dubbed a ‘historic milestone.’” There seems to be a lot of “historic milestones” occurring in Canada and the United States lately. (Regina, Toronto, Minneapolis, Dearborn, etc., etc.) If that’s want you want to call them.

The Regina Police Service (RPS) previously issued a permit “to a local faith group,” allowing them to amplify their call to prayer via a downtown, rooftop speaker. Predictably, the RPS and other local authorities are more concerned about any backlash from the blaring paean to Islam than they are about the blaring paean to Islam in a still majority Christian city.

Making things worse, Canadian federal MPs recently passed Bill C-9, ludicrously and opaquely dubbed “An Act to amend the Criminal Code (hate propaganda, hate crime, and access to religious or cultural places).” Ironically, the bill effectively bans the public reading of parts of the Bible. But a call to Muslim prayer is apparently perfectly fine, according to the RPS and C-9.

I wonder if the powers that be would allow Toby Keith songs to be blasted across the city five times a day? The sound of dogs barking? Readings from Gad Saad’s great new book, Suicidal Empathy? Perhaps some advertisements for pork products? Who wouldn’t like to hear classics such as “Oh, I’d love to be an Oscar Meyer Wiener, that’s what I’d truly like to be, ‘cause if I was an Oscar Meyer Wiener, everyone would be in love with me!?”

In a sense, it’s not really a public call to prayer that Muslims are demanding. It is a warning. A call to arms. A call to overtake and subjugate.

A call that must not be answered. At least not in the affirmative.

 

Walking Along A Canadian Road

 

Walking along the northwestern Ontario gravel road, being assaulted by insects that tried to bite me, set up shop in my hair, and get into my eyes, I was struck by a thought. This thought was further buttressed by witnessing the quick and violent deaths of several insects via dragon flies and birds. Also, that my wife and I were walking in bear country made me ponder a potential confrontation of that nature. Most animals do what most animals gotta do: catch and tear each other apart to live. Whether the fauna at hand be insects, birds, reptiles, fish, or mammals, it is a brutal—and often very short existence.

The thought that struck me was this: does the apparent meaninglessness of bugs lives, along with their inability to perceive that meaninglessness—and, in many cases, to feel pain or experience fear in the same manner that humans do—actually prove that humans are different, superior…because they have been given the ability to perceive (and feel) these things? It seems to me a clear tell that we have been given this ability by the God of Genesis. (Moreover, we wonder about our own creation, and that of the universe of which animals are not aware.) Additionally, the gifts of compassion, humility, empathy—and humor—should make this clear.

In any case, we were not eaten by a bear, which I perceived was a good thing. I wish I could say the same thing as regards the bugs. We’ll laugh about that later.

 

 

It's A Great Day To Be Alive

     Dearest readers, I am currently in transit between remotest northwestern Ontario and my home in the United States. I am, therefore, unable to put up my usual brilliant and spine-tingling posts. That said, I do hope you realize that, in any case, it's a great day to be alive. If you make it so. 

     Until tomorrow then. 

Joy Reid Says Black People Are Not Excited About July 4th

 

Former MSNBC host Joy Reid recently stated that no black people she knows are excited about the 4^th of July. She added that most of her black friends simply see it as a day off to barbecue. She further stated that Independence Day is really just a symbol of the slavery of black people, and that she much prefers Juneteenth. She went on to describe Independence Day as “the celebration of slaveholders who freed themselves from having to pay taxes to the Crown for their slave empire.”

The inimitable-- and wildly off-base—Reid, also claimed that for many Black Americans the Fourth of July feels similar to how Indigenous people view Thanksgiving, adding that Juneteenth “to me is the real thing” because the United States “really weren’t a democracy until we ended slavery.” 

That Reid would pigeonhole blacks by saying they only view the 4^th of July as a day to barbecue is sadly unsurprising. Juneteenth is, literally, not a legitimate holiday. Juneteenth is a recently trumped-up and highly fabricated “holiday.” The U.S. was a democracy long before the first “Juneteenth.” Countless thousands of white men died in the struggle to end slavery long before it was ended in many other nations, so that countless numbers of black people like Joy Reid could claim to be victims. 

Crime And No Punishment

 

Darializa Avila Chevalier is running for a congressional seat in New York City. Qualifications? Like her city’s mayor, she wants to abolish private property. She also wants to abolish the police. And shut down all the prisons. And see to it that “Israel does not exist.” Oh, and she wants to abolish our borders. Private property, police, prisons, Israel, borders…all gone. What could go wrong? These stances naturally made Mayor Mamdani endorse her. What “progressive” politicians are really saying when they purport to want to abolish private property, the police, prison-- and our borders—is not just that they are anti-American and pro-crime, but that they hate us and are actively trying to replace us.

A recent post on ‘X’ noted that a Moroccan migrant has been arrested for the anal rape of an underage autistic girl in the bathroom of a restaurant in Dệnia, Spain. Could there be a more despicable crime? Can you say, “death penalty?” That would be the proper punishment.

A Sudanese immigrant recently tried to behead a 40-something Irish citizen, leaving him gravely injured and missing an eye. Is beheading a thing again in Europe? Apparently so. Yet, Irish police are urging Irish citizens not to protest too zealously against these crimes, lest they be found guilty of hate crimes. A beheading is one thing, but aggressively decrying a beheading is beyond the pale! Amazing. Incomprehensible. Satanic.

And, of course, a little girl was recently stabbed by a Muslim terrorist outside a Catholic school in Dublin, Ireland. She is now in such bad shape that she can only answer yes or no questions by blinking her eyes. To their credit, the Irish people are finally up in arms, or would be if they had any. But they are seriously demonstrating, taking to the streets to protest their government’s betrayal (of them). It seems they’ve channeled their inner American founder even as most Americans have forgotten what it means—and takes-- to defend one’s liberty.

It is important that we view Islam for what it is: a pseudo-religious political belief system designed to allow its adherents to take over and subjugate the rest of the world, or as much of it as possible-- as much as the rest of the world will allow. Caliphate, you know. If we fail to view it in that light, we will sentence ourselves to ultimate defeat via suicidal empathy.

Yet, predictably, leftists and their media sycophants around the world are far more concerned with potential “Islamophobia” than they are with silly little beheadings or anal rapes of young girls. They as much as decry the “anti-beheading extremists” of the “far right”… who seem to be intolerant of all forms of murder, whether it be abortion, MAID, euthanasia, stabbings…or beheadings. They imply that this kind of close-mindedness unfairly limits the options of the Homicidal-American Community (HAC), which is already marginalized in red states and rural areas. (Perhaps HAC could be added to the end of LGBTQIIA+. Maybe that’s what the ‘+’ was for.)

A Muslim assault that leaves a naïve young girl badly battered seems a near-perfect metaphor for the state of the U.S., and indeed all of the West at this point.

Western Europe, America, is that still you? Blink your eyes if you can hear me.

And one more question: will you both survive the 21st century?

Blink once for yes, twice for no.

Waiting.
