Claremont’s American Mind Magazine Has a Well Written Article on Tribalism

I enjoyed the section where she looked at the cognitive dissonance and panic when an academic tried to point out the equivalence between the transgender and trans-racial delusions.  Only difference; one is dogma, the other is heresy.

Another Step in the Right Direction on Voter Fraud

First Ohio, now Georgia.  That’s 98,000 fewer fake votes that can be manufactured when the Democrats are looking to steal an election.

Let them scream and shout about voting rights all they want.  In an age when the government and even corporations know your blood pressure GPS location, not knowing whether a voter is alive or dead, or living in another state is a fiction that no longer needs to be allowed.  Tammany Hall needs to be shut down.

Betelgeuse, Betelgeuse, Betelgeuse!

Forgive the jocularity but Alpha Orionis (aka Betelgeuse) is of course of great interest at Orion’s Cold Fire.  Sporting such an alarmist title as “Is Betelgeuse About To Explode?” I should condemn this article but as a general interest essay and coming around the time of the Star of the Magi I felt I should link to it.

The ZMan Addresses the New Serfdom

A very interesting article by the ZMan on the result of only having one retailer, one bank, one local college, one local law firm.  Even the rich folks have nowhere to send some of their children to work.  He is right about this, I’ve seen it affecting even the cloud people.  Now that the working class has been liquidated, they’re coming for the rest of us.  Oh well, at least we’ll get bread and circuses for a while.

20DEC2019 – American Greatness Post of the Day – Paul Bradford’s Nationalism Won

Paul Bradford’s article “Nationalism Won the British Election and It Will Win Again Here,” is a reasonably concise evaluation of the way Boris Johnson steered his party away from both the open borders of Labour and the libertarian economics of the Tories to embrace a Nationalism that successfully united the aspirations of working class and middle class voters.

Bradford sums this up in his last sentence, “Put America First and curb immigration. It won in the UK, and it can win again in America.”

 

19DEC2019 – American Greatness Post of the Day – Angelo Codevilla – For Whom the New Rules?

Codevilla addresses the new reality of the Deep State justifying extra-legal activities based on bureaucratic authority

https://amgreatness.com/2019/12/18/for-whom-the-new-rules/

His point is if the Deep State agents who committed these crimes aren’t punished then the Republicans will have to embrace the same tactics purely out of self defense.  That is the same slippery slope that led the Romans to dictatorship.

 

Taibbi Lays Out the Inconsistencies in the FBI Narrative

Taibbi details the places in the FBI’s narrative where the lies contradict each other.  In each case there are two stories that clash and someone has to be lying.  Barr and Durham should have a good time raking these creeps over the coals.  Even Loretta Lynch is in the cast of shady characters.

This Article Nicely Defines How Conservatives Can Win

This guy gets it.   Trump and Johnson win because they’re not worrying about the theoretical basis of conservative government. They’re trying to give the people a government that helps solve their problems and doesn’t despise them.

St. Greta, Do You Really Want to be the Next Al Gore?

I think when the Climate Conference in Madrid became stalemated Greta had her hissy fit about putting all the climate criminals against the wall.  But now that it’s collapsed she’s talking about taking a break.  Makes sense.  Without Obama in the White House Green Power is a dud.  Chances of a Nobel Peace Prize seem slim.

https://www.realclearenergy.org/articles/2019/12/16/madrid_climate_conference_ends_in_failure_110499.html

But the real Nobel Peace Prize winner straightened it all out, “We have the solutions,” Gore boomed. “They are cheaper than fossil fuels.” Wind and solar are crossing the line of grid parity, he insisted—there would be no stopping them.”

But the article writer even though a greenie sees the light,  “in Earth in the Balance, Gore described the internal-combustion engine as a deadlier threat to America than any military foe. Somehow, America has survived it, even with the SUV share of auto sales soaring from 27% to 48% in just nine years. The trend toward clean energy is unstoppable, Gore claimed, but we still need new policies to make it so. A contradiction? For sure.”

Peter Thiel Turns on Shatner!

The Fat Man who is a hyper-vigilant researcher of all things Shatner sent this in to me.  Imagine his horror when another of his idols, Peter Thiel, mocks the great one!  Watch starting at 10:00.

Oh the horror.  Utter blasphemy.

Landreau, coordinate!
