This assessment of the situation in England is better than anything else I’ve read

Not since 1066 has a government in my land so hated and despised the people it rules, and been so determined to enslave, reduce, deny, exploit and destroy them. What is happening with mass immigration, with unacknowledged but real Muslim conquest, and with erasure from both the history books and the streets, represents a deliberate attempt to expunge a distinct people from the world, to consign them solely to history. And if you don’t believe that is true, visit the parts of Birmingham or London or Bradford where it has already happened, and find me an Englishman there.

There is also an excellent bit of history about the Norman Conquest and its aftermath well worth your time.

The difference between how DA Allen Bragg treats people who are considered a danger to Democrat re-election efforts vs a danger to police or innocent Jews is illustrated here:

James Carlson, who also goes by Cody, burned an Israeli flag, violently stormed Columbia’s Hamilton Hall, clashed with a facilities worker, and allegedly broke a police camera while detained. He was arrested on April 20 on a misdemeanor arson charge and again on April 30, the day that New York City police swept Columbia and cleared Hamilton Hall, for burglary, a felony in New York.

By the time Carlson and other Hamilton Hall arrestees attended their June court hearings, however, the Manhattan district attorney’s office—led by Alvin Bragg—opted to pursue a reduced charge against Carlson: criminal trespassing, a misdemeanor. As a result, Carlson, a trust fund kid who specializes in animal rights law and lists his $2.3 million Brooklyn townhouse on his active New York attorney registration, faces little risk of losing his license.

Via Hotair. Never forget that if Trump was the pre 2015 Trump who was not consider a threat to Democrats holding power his case would never have seen the light of day.

How Bad was the Walz Pick by Kamala Harris, this bad:

Two things to remember about this story:
  1. The Walz pick was the first decision made by Kamala as the Democrat candidate for president.
  2. This is the same media that has done their level best to raise up and protect Harris from the moment Biden was forced out.

Almost more interesting is the media sudden volte face on Hunter Biden.

A CNN panel reacted on Wednesday to the news that Hunter Biden reportedly sought help from the U.S. government for a possibly financially beneficial energy project in Italy while his father was vice president, and said it felt “very strange.” 

“This isn‘t great. Hunter Biden, everybody in the White House has known for a long time, is an issue. The way that his lawyers responded to this disclosure saying, ‘Well, yeah, he sent letters but did nothing wrong.’ This feels very strange to people that the vice president‘s son was sending letters or making requests to other government officials and saying, ‘Hey, would you meet with this company?’,” CNN’s Edward-Isaac Dovere said.

The killer quote however is this:

“One of the other things The New York Times reports here is that this document was suddenly shaken loose from the U.S. bureaucracy of the week that President Biden dropped out of the race,” CNN host Kasie Hunt said. “They claim it’s a coincidence.”

It’s amazing what can happen when an idiot is no longer useful

Math and Logic are important and Stacy McCain notes both with discussing the COVID Vaccines and the death of former Youtube Boss who was in charge when I was kicked off the platform:

My point is that two things can be simultaneously true: (1) the COVID-19 vaccines inflicted no serious harm on the vast majority of patients who got vaccinated against the virus, and (2) there are many thousands of people who suffered serious side effects of the vaccines, including hundreds who died as a result of getting vaccinated. You don’t need any expertise in epidemiology to ujnderstand this; it’s just simple math.

OK, so it is probably just a coincidence that pro-vaccine fanatic Susan Wojcicki died of lung cancer at age 56, a little more than three years after the COVID vaccines became available. For my friend to suggest that it was “turbo cancer” is not justified by any available evidence, and it’s probably impolite even to discuss it.

But is it wrong? Well, I can’t say that for certain, and neither can you. Logic requires that we reserve judgment when encountering the unknown, and mRNA vaccines are so new that potential side effects are definitely in the realm of the unknown.

The math is simple:

If you tell me, for example, that mRNA vaccines have been proven 99.9% safe, what you’re actually telling me is, one in 1,000 patients will suffer serious side effects. And if you’re going to administer such vaccines to many millions of people, simple multiplication tells you that there will be a thousand “bad” cases for every million of patients who get the vaccine.

As far as the death of Ms Wojcicki all I know for sure is she was loved by God and Christ died for her sins along with everyone else’s. I hope and pray that she took advantage of said mercy when offered.

I also know that you should subscribe to Stacy McCain’s substack.

The Worst Possible Case For The King (and the Fauci Flock)

Taurus Killgaren: [last words] This destiny of greatness is yours and yours alone, Syzygy. You can’t paint me a Villain trying to steal your place of glory. Once it becomes clearer to you you’ll realize your fate is one not many would covet. I know I’m about to die, but even so I’d not trade places with you for all the Treasures of the Universe.

The Price Jim Starlin 1981

It’s almost superfluous to start this post saying that I feel bad for LeBron James and wish the best for his family in general and his son in particular and hope that he still manages to achieve the goal of at least one NBA game if not a full season playing on the same team as his son Bronny.

As a father of two sons I’d hate to be in the position he is today worried about his sons health after a heart attack (or “cardiac arrest if you want to split hairs). It’s actually something I’ve thought about more than once. My father died of a heart attack at age 66 and had them regularly during the final five to ten years of his life, I’m only six years younger than him right now and run about 280 lbs. There is every probability that I will share that fate (although perhaps a bit later as I never smoked and rarely drink as he did for most of his life) and as both of my sons are bigger than me both in size and weight there is a possibility that I could live to see one of them have a heart attack. It’s not a pleasant thought.

But lets be real, I’m a sixty year old man from a family with a history of heart problems who is very overweight and I’m telling you right now if I was morbid enough to have approached a bookie a week, or a month or a year ago and put up $100 that Bronny James, the physically fit all American NBA prospect son of the greatest star in NBA history who is still active (I’d still take Russell over him all time) would suffer any kind of “cardiac arrest” or heart attack before I or one of my sons did today I’d be collecting enough money today to retire comfortably. The odds of that would seem astronomical, but there is of course one vital difference between myself, my sons and young Mr. James.

LeBron James declared that the COVID Vaccine was the right decision for him and his family and I’m sure this decision caused others who were hesitant to take the covid shot(s).

Nobody in my immediate family did. Not one of us.

And that is why I would hate to be Lebron today. He of course will be able to make sure his son gets the best medical care available in the world but a scenario where he might not be able to play basketball again at the college level or at all on the professional level is a real possibility and of course like any father he would gladly take that possibility in a second over anything worse that’s life threatening.

There is also the possibility that there will be no further issues with Bronny’s heart and we all hope that is the case here but regardless of the result it’s very likely that for the rest of his life LeBron is going to be second guessing his decision to take the shot and have his family get it. The fact that he also spent years carrying water for the Chinese communists who made the virus and did so for cash likely isn’t playing well with him either. I suspect these things are going to be a source of horrible pain, pain that I wouldn’t wish on anyone and I certainly wouldn’t trade places with him today, money and fame not withstanding.

But I’ll tell you this, as much I’d hate to be in Lebron’s shoes today I’d hate to be the Fauci and his vax pack in media and medicine who pushed this on people. They are likely the only people praying for Bronny’s full recovery as hard if not harder than the James family because if LeBron decides to blame these liars for misinforming him he has the cache to not be ignored or cancelled for it and thus is in a position to make things miserable for them for decades, and if he does a lot of other regular people who have been silent might just pick up the pitchforks behind him.

God help the Vax Pack if Bronny takes a turn for the worse and James decides he wants vengeance. Imagine a person with that kind of reach deciding their goal is your destruction.

Closing thought: I wonder how many professional sports players who had themselves and their families take the jab are jealous of Kyrie Irving today?

Definitions Under the Fedora: Safe, Woman, Illegal, Disinformation and Truth

I wasn’t aware of the suit against Pfizer claiming they violated their contract with the Government over the COVID vaccine and thus doesn’t have immunity over their delivered vaccine. Given the ads constantly be running on radio about watching for signs of heart issues that are sponsored by them (ads we didn’t see three years ago) they might be worried but all of this depends on how the court defines “Save and effective”. If they make sure it’s defined in their favor it all doesn’t matter.

In Minnesota they’re having fun adjusting definitions of “woman” as a Transgender Powerlifter has won in court against the US Powerlifting federation. Apparently under Minnesota law, at least according to the court, to stop a man who believes himself to be a woman from competing against other woman is discriminatory and traumatic.

Hey if at least one justice on the Supreme Court can’t under oath define what a woman is how do you expect judges on the Minnesota courts to do so.

If they lose their appeals my advice is to drop all segregation by sex in powerlifting. I suspect once the prospects finishing in a medal round disappear so will these “woman” from competition.

Over at Legal Insurrection there is a piece about Germany banning protests against abortion as the “40 days for life” movement has come there and made quite a splash.

The left fear is always a good sign but there was something in the piece that jumped out at me:

Currently, abortion is illegal in Germany, but women and their doctors do not face penalties if the pregnancy poses a health risk to the woman or in cases of rape. There is also a loophole under which an abortion may be carried out within the first 12 weeks of pregnancy (14 weeks since the last period) after mandatory counseling.

emphasis mine

That seems a rather flexible definition of the word “illegal” in my books, but to a person of a certain age Germans finding a loophole allowing them to kill undesirables is almost tradition.

The Twitter files keep coming out an the government’s use of the word “disinformation” to justify their actions is looking worse and worse as the New Neo reports:

Maybe GEC’s involvement was a secret, but it was no secret – to anyone paying attention – that vast numbers of Twitter accounts were being censored for fairly ordinary viewpoints, the majority of them on the right. It wasn’t limited to Twitter, either – YouTube was heavily involved.

I can vouch for the Youtube censorship but to me the real key line of the story (other than this being,surprise an Obama initiative is this:

The center has a budget of roughly $74 million and “reportedly gave to at least 39 different organizations, whose names were redacted” in an inspector general report.

I submit and suggest that this was, and still is, all about funding leftist front groups to point to their political enemies to have them censored.

Land of the free my ***

Just over two thousands years ago Jesus Christ said:

John 8:32

Apparently Scott Adams has confirmed this is true

This makes this particular bit about the Scott Adams story, via Roger Kimball, particularly interesting:

Oh, the howls of outrage that comment elicited! The woke beast was awake and on the prowl. “Dilbert has been cancelled from all newspapers, websites, calendars, and books,” Adams said. Why? “Because I gave some advice everyone agreed with. (My syndication partner canceled me.)”

Once whetted, the appetite of the woke beast is insatiable. A day or two later, Adams reported, “My publisher for non-Dilbert books has canceled my upcoming book and the entire backlist. Still no disagreement about my point of view. My book agent canceled me too.”`

It is true, by the way, that “everyone agrees” with the point that Adams made. Everyone knows it is true. But no one is supposed to admit that it is true. Adams made it all worse by observing that “There is nothing more painful to me at this stage in my life than to walk down the street and hear footsteps . . . then turn around and see somebody white and feel relieved.” Oh, wait. I got my notes confused. That wasn’t Scott Adams. That was the professional black Jesse Jackson in 1993. 

Perhaps the word “cancelled” might have to be redefined
