For years, the right across the West has noted that mass immigration has been a boon for left-wing parties, which are essentially importing a new voting base. Sweden’s latest election appears to once again affirm this view, with the left narrowly winning the election, in large part due to their overwhelming support from those with a non-European background in Sweden.

The Space Force could turn President Donald Trump’s proposed U.S. Space Academy into a new source of highly skilled civilian employees while continuing to rely on the Air Force Academy to produce military officers, the service’s top officer said Tuesday.

Chief of Space Operations Gen. Douglas Schiess said the NASA-led academy could help address the Space Force’s growing demand for workers with specialized technical expertise.

“We need a lot of technical civilians in the Space Force,” Schiess told reporters at the Air and Space Forces Association’s annual Air, Space, and Cyber Conference outside Washington.

“Anybody that’s space-minded and is going to have that background, that can then get a job in the Space Force as a civilian, that’s great.”

The Space Force is seeking to rebuild and significantly expand its civilian workforce. The service lost nearly 14% of its civilian employees amid federal workforce reductions and is asking Congress to fund about 7,200 civilian jobs in 2027, a 40% increase over 2026.

Civilians make up about one-third of the Space Force workforce and hold critical jobs across missions including satellite communications, missile warning, and cyber operations.

Trump signed an executive order last month creating a presidential commission to develop plans for the U.S. Space Academy, envisioned as a NASA-led federal institution that would educate astronauts, engineers, scientists, operators, civil servants, and others for careers in the nation’s space enterprise.

The commission has 120 days to recommend how the academy should be structured, governed, and accredited, as well as what service obligations graduates would have in exchange for their education.

As the Trump administration seeks to crack down on potential voter fraud in nursing homes, an election watchdog group is providing additional information to long-term care facilities, citing several past criminal cases involving political operatives and staff who took advantage of vulnerable elderly residents.

A Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services memo from late July cited two major cases in recent years, one out of Texas and another out of Wisconsin, involving elderly people being exploited in long-term care facilities for collecting votes.

The memo says facilities have a “responsibility to preserve residents’ rights to vote and to promote participation in the democratic process.” But says, “This activity should not violate federal or state voting laws.” And that staff “cannot engage in inappropriate coercion or other violations of residents’ rights.”

I reported last weekend on Dr. Charles Hoffe, a general practitioner in British Columbia who testified at the Allison Inquiry on Parliament Hill in Ottawa, which is investigating the adverse consequences reported by people who received one or more of the COVID-19 “vaccines”. The first part of Dr. Hoffe’s testimony concerned the fact that emergency rooms in British Columbia had never been overflowing with COVID patients as described in the official propaganda about the “pandemic”. Then, after the “vaccinations” started, people who had been vaxed started coming down with COVID. The more boosters they received, the more likely they were to get COVID, and the worse their symptoms became. Some of his vaxed patients started exhibiting severe neurological symptoms, but Dr. Hoffe was unable to get them referred to neurological specialists, because he described the problems as vaccine-related. He was told not to say anything that questioned the safety and efficacy of the vax.

Needless to say, he experienced retribution at the hands of the medical establishment for his impertinence, and almost lost his medical license.

The following video documents Dr. Charles Hoffe’s official testimony at the Allison Inquiry.

Works in Progress.

In the twentieth century, a radical change took place in global architecture. The modernist movement emerged in the 1920s, favoring unornamented designs, exposed modern materials like steel and concrete, and the abandonment of the complicated visual patterns of traditional planning and facade design. Modernism came to dominate global architecture by the 1950s, and although it has evolved and fragmented since then, styles of broadly modernist character remain dominant today.

Throughout its history, both supporters and detractors of modernist architecture have agreed that it is not widely liked. In 1940, the English architectural historian John Summerson remarked that the public ‘can’t understand it, never will, and hates it like poison’. In 1977, the German-American architectural critic Wolf von Eckardt prematurely announced the death of modernism, claiming that ‘No one mourned. It was never popular.’ The young Summerson was sympathetic to modernism while von Eckardt disliked it, but they made the same observation about its standing with the general public.

Were Summerson and von Eckardt right? In recent years, researchers have begun to study this more systematically using visual preference surveys. In their simplest form, these are just a comparison of two images alongside a neutral, unbiased question, like ‘Which do you prefer?’ Online panels and better image editing have brought down their cost in recent decades. Since the 1990s, around twenty properly sampled visual preference surveys have been run on popular architectural preferences.

Sometimes the old ways are best.

Because the wrong people have seized control of the language of public policy discussion.

In the increasing debates over capitalism vs. socialism/communism, one of the assertions I read most often from anti-capitalists is that the existence of significant wealth inequality among people in a capitalistic society such as the United States shows that capitalism is “unfair.”

I note that none of these assertions are accompanied by any description of wealth distribution under communism or socialism.

Most of us here however see that every communist or socialist nation seems (at least on the surface) to have a great deal of wealth inequality. And even theoretically, a system of “equal” wealth distribution requires some limited number of people to decide (or to design a system that decides) what is “equal.” Given human nature, such systems are going to favor somebody (or at least be subject to accusations that it favors somebody).

Unfortunately the language of the Declaration have given the Levellers a huge stick with which to beat the dimwitted underclass and the products of our failed government schools.

Cue the usual derogatory comments about sororities.

the opposite. It is breaking the contract,” Allie Coghan, one of the plaintiffs, told the Daily Signal in an interview after oral arguments.

Coghan and four other University of Wyoming Kappa Kappa Gamma members sued the sorority in 2023 after it admitted a man who identified as transgender. They claimed the sorority’s leadership violated its fiduciary duty to members and breached its contract with members.

Judge Alan B. Johnson, an appointee of President Ronald Reagan, had dismissed the case with prejudice in August 2025, ruling that the court “may not interfere with Kappa’s contractually valid interpretation of its own Bylaws.” He ruled that “nothing in the Bylaws or the Standing Rules requires Kappa to narrowly define the words ‘women’ or ‘woman’ to include only those individuals born with a certain set of reproductive organs.”

Here we are in another election cycle, and just like the migratory birds that return every season, so has the progressive cause célèbre of single-payer universal health coverage, also being marketed as Medicare for All.

This has become a central part of the socialist platform and is the cornerstone of the Senate campaigns of Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan and James Talarico in Texas, among scores of other socialists running as Democrats this year.

This is not a new concept, yet with more dissatisfaction regarding the high cost of healthcare and frustrations with medical insurance, its message may be gaining traction.

Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., has been the driving force behind this effort, but it has fallen short in the past. In his home state of Vermont, the Green Mountain Healthcare Plan was considered but quickly abandoned because of exorbitant costs. Every resident was going to see a state tax of 9.5% and businesses an 11.5% tax to pay for this plan.

How far will New York Gov. Kathy Hochul go to keep immigrant criminals in this country?

So far, she’ll even pardon a man convicted of an aggravated felony, if that’s what it takes to prevent the United States Supreme Court from setting a restrictionist precedent.

Keisy Guerrero Mariano is a Dominican who spent two years in prison for committing a violent crime: second-degree assault.

Mariano, known as “G.M.” in court documents, is exactly the sort of lawbreaker Americans overwhelmingly want to see deported.

But not Hochul — she granted him clemency on Aug. 28.

His case stood out from those of the other five people she pardoned that day:

The others were nonviolent offenders who’d committed their crimes decades ago: two in the 1980s, two in the ‘90s, and just one as recently as 2007.

G.M. was convicted in 2015.

The governor decided he merited special leniency, for political reasons.

On August 21, 2024, I rolled into the Indiana Dunes at the end of an 825-mile bicycle ride from Washington, D.C.—a ride that raised over $100,000 for I AM ALS, founded by former Obama White House counsel Brian Wallach. Two days before my arrival, Wallach was just a few miles away in Chicago, addressing the Democratic National Convention (DNC) alongside his wife, Sandra.

Also inside that convention hall was one of the party’s most prolific progressive fundraisers, a woman named Evan Barker. Her recent loud break with the Democratic Party, overnight as it looked, had been a long time coming. She walked out during Oprah Winfrey’s speech, recorded a video on the convention floor, and posted it to TikTok, garnering millions of views. After the 2024 election, she wrote an essay for The Free Press admitting she’d voted for Donald Trump.

Nearly two years later, the full story behind Barker’s split from the Democratic Party is told in her new book, Nothing Left: Confessions of a Democratic Operative. While she isn’t the first person to write about Kansas, the working class, or the Democrats’ fall, Barker is the first to do it with a true insider’s perspective. The solution she offers reads less like a fix than a final warning to a party that looks to be spiraling out of control.

It’s not surprising, but it is discouraging how accurate the conservative analysis of the Lindsay Clancy trial has become. Every suspicion has proven correct about the jury and every fear about their motives is proving more substantial. The trial itself symbolizes a disastrous miscarriage of justice in favor of ideology; it offers proof that in an age of social media and political cultism, finding an impartial jury is increasingly impossible.

Thanks to the “rogue juror” the deliberations did not lead to a calculating child killer going free (in Massachusetts, patients incarcerated in mental health facilities get a review and the possibility of release every six months). However, that juror has come under relentless attack from the media, from Clancy’s defense team and from the other jurors involved in the case.

Their primary argument? That the rogue juror was “not following the rules of reasonable doubt” and was not acting impartially. As more information has been released in regards to jury proceedings, it’s becoming clear that there was a large group of jurors who came into the case with an agenda and these jurors pressured the others to conform.

One anonymous female juror insinuated as much during an interview with local media.

Not a surprise, but a useful reminder.

The Antiplanner.

“You have no debt,” the DSA continues. “You don’t need health insurance. You don’t pay a mortgage or have a landlord, because comfortable housing is a human right. Your retirement is publicly funded. Food, education, energy, medicine, and transportation aren’t for-profit businesses; they are common goods and utilities.”
The simplistic response is: if you only have to work as much as you want and housing, food, health care, education, energy, and transportation are all paid for by the government, then why would anyone work? And if no one works, then who pays for housing, food, health care, education, energy, and transportation?
Of course, they envision that people would work, though it isn’t clear how they manage to get quality work out of those workers. But let’s say that people do the work. How does that work out for society?
To answer this question, we don’t have to look at the Soviet Union, China, or even Britain when it was ruled by the socialists between 1948 and 1979. Instead, we only have to look at a socialist institution found here in the good ol’ USA: public transit.
As of 1964, transit was mostly private and the few public agencies that operated transit were funded mainly out of their fare revenues. But starting in 1965, Congress offered to subsidize public agencies that operated transit. Within a decade the transit industry was almost entirely socialized (or, as they called it then, “municipalized”).
Today, thanks to socialism, urban residents can go anywhere they want to go on transit — provided they want to go downtown. Those who want to go almost anywhere can expect to take hours on transit. Transit’s failure to serve anyone other than downtown travelers is shown by the commuters it carries: while around 30 percent of downtown workers in the nation’s 50 largest urban areas commute by transit, less than 4 percent of workers in the rest of those urban areas take transit to work.

Public transit goes from where you aren’t to where you don’t want to be—and takes three times as long.

Swedes voted in a parliamentary election yesterday, and the results provide a wake-up call for those Westerners who might still think the immigrant vote won’t be a decisive factor in the electoral process.

According to this article from Remix News, an estimated 70% of the migrant vote in Sweden supported one or another of the left-wing parties — all of which, not coincidentally, favor migrant-friendly policies.

The migrant vote tipped the outcome in favor of the Left, whose parties squeaked by to gain a slight majority of seats in Parliament. The Social Democrats (Socialdemokraterna) received the highest percentage of the vote, enough to be able to attempt the formation of a governing coalition.

These election results occurred in the face of a swing towards nationalism and anti-immigration sentiments among ethnic Swedes. Without the immigrants tipping the election, a government that included the Sweden Democrats (Sverigedemokraterna) would have been a distinct possibility.

Muslim immigrants vote as a bloc. White natives (in Sweden and other Western countries) don’t. They tend to distribute their votes almost equally between Left and Right, so that the result is usually close.

And now we can see what happens when the Muslim vote becomes sufficiently large. Muslims tend to vote for the leftist parties that favor open borders, until their numbers have sufficiently increased through their continuous hijra and greater fecundity. At that point they form Islamic parties (which have already appeared in some European countries), and begin the gradual shift away from democracy towards Shariah.

Such is the future that awaits the West. All of it. The process is well underway. Sweden is just the first domino to fall.

New York Post.

New York’s race to the bottom in education continued apace Monday, as the Board of Regents scrapped the requirement that the state’s high schoolers actually learn something to graduate.

For 30 years, students needed to pass at least four Regents exams — in math, English, science and Global Studies — to earn a diploma. To be clear, this standard was the barest minimum. The governing board kept lowering the score needed to pass the tests, watering down the results.

But it was something: A tangible requirement — a responsibility — that showed we as a state cared about accountability.

And that’s exactly the word that the Teachers Union hates. It meant parents and politicians would start to question why a whopping 15%-20% of students didn’t meet graduation requirements. Testing highlighted bad instructors and bad schools. As usual, COVID is partly to blame here. The Regents board “temporarily” lifted requirements during the pandemic, and graduation rates rose to 87% in 2022. When the Regents tests returned, the state rate fell to 85%. The city’s: 81%. It was the largest year over year percentage drop in 20 years.

The number of Americans renouncing their citizenship, along with long-term green card holders ending their United States tax residency, reached its highest level since 2020 over the past 12 months, according to an analysis of Federal Register data.

A total of 5,790 names appeared on the register’s U.S. expatriation list over the past four quarters, representing individuals whose loss of U.S. citizenship or long-term permanent resident status was reported to the Treasury Department. According to Greenback Expat Tax Services, that is the highest four-quarter total in six years.

The increase was particularly sharp between April and June, when 1,781 names were recorded in the register’s list, up 68.5 percent from the same quarter last year. That brought the first-half total to 3,243, up 38.5 percent from the first half of 2025.

(Pew stopped issuing this poll in 2017 … my private suspicion is that the median Dem no longer fit on the graph)

But it’s now clear … Democrats ARE Socialists. It became obvious to me back in 2020. Biden won the Dem primary in 2020 by switching horses mid-stream. While he started out as a “moderate” Dem, those positions got no traction. So, after losing the first several primaries in embarrassing fashion, he basically co-opted Socialist Bernie Sanders’ positions. And with the public support of South Carolina’s Jim Clyburn, the new-version Biden won the 2020 Dem primary.

And it’s now official … in a newly released Quinnipiac University poll, 59% of registered Democrats say they support the Democratic Socialists of America.

Because the ‘mayor’ is a Democrat and can’t be bothered.

Thirty-eight of the biggest names in American business just sent a memo to city hall, and it reads less like corporate lobbying and more like a performance review nobody asked for.

Microsoft, Starbucks, Costco, Nordstrom, Zillow, Alaska Airlines, T-Mobile, and the Seattle Mariners put their names on a letter to Mayor Katie Wilson demanding a public safety plan with a deadline, a budget, and monthly report cards. When Brad Smith and Brian Niccol start writing performance reviews for the mayor, you know the mayor’s own staff stopped writing them.

I have spent thirty years advising institutions on risk, and risk shows up first in the data nobody wants to read out loud. The coalition’s own numbers do the reading for them. A poll it commissioned in mid-August found just 34% of Seattle voters confident the city has an effective public safety plan. Every proposal the pollster tested cleared 75% support, and 90% of voters backed something as basic as foot and bicycle patrols in high-crime areas.

That is not a partisan split. That is a city agreeing with itself and watching its government do something else entirely.

Democrats aren’t about governing, any more than insurance companies are about paying claims. They’re about getting elected, oppressing the Heretics & Sinners, and dividing up the swag. Keeping people safe? Ain’t nobody got time for dat.
