The Disgrace of Smith College

20th February 2021

Read it.

Her basic message:

“I ask that Smith College stop reducing my personhood to a racial category. Stop telling me what I must think and feel about myself. Stop presuming to know who I am or what my culture is based upon my skin color. Stop asking me to project stereotypes and assumptions onto others based on their skin color.”

For this the president of Smith College, Kathleen McCartney, sent out a campus-wide note denouncing Shaw, and openly lamenting that labor laws prevented her (McCartney) from disciplining or firing Shaw for her wrongthink.

“Break Their Will!”

20th February 2021

Read it.

When a dog curls its lip and bares its teeth, you know what sort of dog you’re dealing with. One such dog curled its lip in Massachusetts recently. His name is David Ismay – possibly related to the Bruce Ismay of Titanic fame, but hold that thought.

This Ismay wants to “break the will” – his words – of people who rely on gasoline to power their cars and oil and natural gas to heat their homes, in order to “combat climate change.”

Family Demands Answers

19th February 2021

The Other McCain shines a spotlight.

Whenever police kill a black criminal, it is now predictable — as night follows day — that the media will run a story about how the family of the deceased suspect “demands answers” about the shooting. Generally speaking, there will be a “civil rights” lawyer at the press conference, and there will eventually be a lawsuit against the cops. We take this for granted nowadays, along with the media interviewing relatives of the deceased criminal, who had an extensive felony record, saying that he was really a wonderful person, a beloved father, blah blah blah.

These Seven Republicans Voted To Convict Trump In Senate Impeachment Trial

13th February 2021

Read it.

  • North Carolina Sen. Richard Burr
  • Lousiana Sen. Bill Cassidy
  • Maine Sen. Susan Collins
  • Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski
  • Utah Sen. Mitt Romney
  • Nebraska Sen. Ben Sasse
  • Pennsylvania Sen. Pat Toome

These people need to be primaryed and gotten rid of, both to cull the herd and to remind the faithful that the wage of sin is death.

The reason why Republicans have such a long history of losing to Democrats is that Democrats politicians never forget which side they’re on; Republican politicians quite often do (or seem to).

That needs to change or Republicans will keep losing forever.

They used to call it “retail therapy.” But for conservatives, there’s nothing therapeutic about walking the aisles of stores that want to shut down your speech, cancel your bank accounts, or send cents on every dollar to Marxist groups who despise America.

In an age when conservatives can’t turn on the TV, send their kids to school, check their Facebook feeds, or watch sports without being reminded about the wokeness of corporate extremists, it’s no wonder they’re fed up. And fed up—Gallup warns—is exactly what they are.

Ben Shapiro.

This week, Virginia Heffernan, a columnist for the Los Angeles Times, unleashed the most perverse column in recent memory. The title: “What can you do about the Trumpites next door?”

Heffernan wasn’t lamenting neighbors who had tagged her house with pro-Trump graffiti, or who had participated in the Jan. 6 riots, or who had even held an election watch party and turned the music up too loud.

No, Heffernan was lamenting the travails of living next door to Trump supporters … who had cleared her driveway of snow.

Russian Doctor Who Treated Alexei Navalny ‘Suddenly’ Dies

5th February 2021

Read it.

A Russian physician who treated opposition leader Alexei Navalny after his poisoning has died “suddenly,” according to a statement from the Omsk emergency hospital given to CNN.

Sergey Maximishin, deputy chief physician at Omsk State Medical University, “suddenly passed away” at the age of 55 a few months after Navalny fell ill during a flight and had to make an emergency landing in Omsk, where he was taken to the emergency hospital.

How … convenient.

Diversity through make-work?

4th February 2021

Read it.

Last month, the Washington Football Team (formerly known as the Redskins) proudly announced that Jennifer King would be an assistant coach. She is now the team’s assistant running backs coach and the first full-time Black female coach in NFL history.

If King is a competent coach, and I have no reason to doubt that she is, then I’m happy for her. But look again at her title — assistant running backs coach.

How many NFL teams have such a coach? I checked the websites of every NFC team. It appears that none of these teams had an assistant running backs coach in 2020.

The reason seems obvious teams. Teams typically have only five running backs, counting members of the practice squad. A unit that small isn’t viewed as needing two coaches. Assistant position coaching jobs are normally reserved for larger units like the offensive and defensive lines.

It seems, then, that the Washington Football Team has invented a coaching job and filled it with a Black female.

Maybe she’s in charge of relieving their tensions after practice.

Fauxcahontas Wants your Wampum

4th February 2021

Steve is not very optimistic.

I try not to look at the news, but sometimes I do. Yesterday I saw that Elizabeth Warren is trying to get a wealth tax through congress. Who predicted that? Don’t hurt yourself trying to find the answer. It was me.

Income taxes and other taxes are bad, but wealth taxes are the supreme taxation evil. When they tax your income and your purchases, you still have some hope of retiring and dying in comfort. When they come for what you already paid tax on, the world crumbles under your feet and you have to consider unthinkable futures such as one in which you share a big, dirty room with other paupers in a government-run assisted living facility.

Warren is going after the “ultra-rich,” of course. When you pass totalitarian measures, you have to start by attacking segments of the population who have very few votes. She wants to take 2% of what they have. So if you have a billion-dollar net worth, kiss $20 million goodbye, in cash, in addition to the death tax your kids will have to pay. If you have to close your business or borrow to keep it going, so sorry. Not all billionaires have a lot of cash.

Polling: Biden Wins, Whites Lose

3rd February 2021

Audacious Epigone runs the numbers.

epublicans are being red-pilled. Four-in-five Republican voters are white, and they understand that the influence awarded to non-Asian minorities will come at their expense.

Especially encouraging are the dual perceptions that the poor are going to lose and the wealthy are going to win under the uber-Establishment Biden. While Democrats still portray the GOP as the party of the rich–and the party leadership eagerly, desperately plays along–Republican voters realize the monied classes are against them.

Democrats have vastly outraised Republicans in corporate cash since 2004. For nearly two decades now the Democrats have been the party of the elites. It is electoral malpractice that in an increasingly populist age the GOP willingly allows itself to be portrayed as the party of fat cats and the Democrats as the party of the little guy while the fat cats stuff Democrat coffers full of cash.

Here’s Why Media Calls Biden a ‘Devout Catholic’ According to Theologians, Commentators

3rd February 2021

Read it.

Those who call President Joe Biden a “devout Catholic” may do so in attempts to suggest that “Catholicism is indistinguishable” from liberal ideology, a professor of theology told the Daily Caller News Foundation.

“When a U.S. President cloaks himself in the outward signs of Catholic identity in order to expand access to abortion, or to use executive power to enforce a gender ideology that will inevitably threaten the freedom of the Church in this country, what you have before you is a Trojan Horse,” Dr. Chad Pecknold, an associate professor of Theology at the Catholic University of America, told the DCNF.

Number of Migrants Increasing Along Southern Border

2nd February 2021

Read it.

There has been a steady uptick in the number of migrants along parts of the U.S.-Mexico border as they look for the possible easing of immigration restrictions by President Joe Biden.

Fox News reported that Border Patrol agents have seen increases in apprehensions among Central American families and unaccompanied children — especially in the Rio Grande Valley and Tucson, Arizona, sectors.

An agent based in Texas noted that in three out of the last seven days, there had been at least 800 arrests in his sector — an increase of 450 a day from just a few months ago. He also told Fox News that border agents encountered two separate groups of more than 100 migrants approaching the border.

My, what a surprise. Aren’t you surprised? I’m sure surprised.

Why Are Progressives So Illiberal?

2nd February 2021

Victor Davis Hanson.

Pan-progressivism

To be a Silicon Valley executive, a prominent Wall Street player, the head of a prestigious publishing house, a university president, a network or PBS anchor, a major Hollywood actress, a retired general or admiral on a corporate board, or a NBA superstar requires either progressive fides or careful suppression of all political affinities.

According to the Center for Responsive Politics, 98 percent of Big Tech political donations went to Democrats in 2020. Censorship and deplatforming on Twitter, Facebook, and other social media companies is decidedly one-way. When Mark Zuckerberg and others in Silicon Valley donate $500 million to help officials “get out the vote” in particular precincts, it is not to help candidates of both parties.

Prize Wide Open

1st February 2021

Read it.

If the Nobel Peace Prize really followed Alfred Nobel’s wishes, the next winners should be Donald Trump, Benjamin Netanyahu and Mohammed bin Zayed of the UAE. In reality, this is comically impossible. The mock-outrage elicited by Alan Dershowitz’s nomination of Kushner and his aide Avi Berkowitz shows how far the Nobel has drifted into a partisan theater in which every entrance and exit comes from stage-left.

A few weeks ago, the London Spectator published my review of Betraying the Nobel, Unni Turrettini’s exposé of the Nobel’s institutional rot. A member of the Nobel Committee took a break from patronizing the world and sent an outraged complaint to the editor. He accused me of misinformation, disinformation and unspecified yet unforgivable malice towards his high-status, free-lunch side-gig. In other words, he accused me of telling truths that he didn’t like, and expected them to be altered accordingly.

Bear in mind that Barack The Magic Negro got the Nobel Peace Prize just for being black and winning the Presidential election, not for, you know, actually doing anything — the ultimate participation trophy.

The Bad Faith Society

1st February 2021

ZMan nails it.

In a democratic system of government, there are supposed to be rules to punish those who do not argue in good faith. Politicians who take bribes, for example, are removed from office and sent to prison. Interests that misrepresent themselves or defraud the public see their interests destroyed as a way to discourage the practice. There are laws that allow the media and the public to examine the claims of the various parties in order to root out corruption and deception. That is the theory, leastways.

That is clearly not where America is right now. Liberal democracy has evolved into one giant game of liar’s poker. Much like the financial markets, the big players in the system no longer have respect for the spirit of the rules. They never come to any deal in good faith and they are never open to reason. They want to “win” the deal by getting all of what they want at the expense of the other parties. In modern liberal democracy, no one is acting in good faith and no one is open to reason.

It is not just the big interests gaming the system. The system itself has been gamed to the point where only a sucker operates in good faith. The politicians, instead of operating as brokers and negotiators, are middlemen facilitating the looting of the system by the big players. Public debate is now a game of shadows, because the mass media lies about everything and is always pushing an agenda on behalf of the big players or their politicians working on their behalf.

How to Deprogram Us

30th January 2021

Victor Davis Hanson.

A new buzzword on social media, cable news, and among leftist activists is “deprogramming.”

Along with terms like “reprogramming,” “de-Baathification,” and “deplatforming,” deprogramming refers to cleansing the incorrect mentalities of former Trump Administration officials—and even those who voted for Trump.

Note that deprogramming does not refer to elites who peddled the “Russian collusion” hoax for years, despite the abject absence of evidence.

Not long ago, two Washington Post columnists offered some solutions to the Trumpist threat. One, Max Boot, wished to ban Fox News and other conservative stations from cable subscriptions.

The other, Eugene Robinson, suggested that there was a need to focus on mostly “white” Republicans to “deprogram” their thoughts.

Pro forma “diversity training” has already been upgraded to include coming clean about “white supremacy” and “unearned privilege.”
