Former Left-Wing Girlfriend: Gerald Platner Cheated With Me on His Fiance (Whom He Hid From Me), Said He Got a Nazi Tattoo to Remind Him That the US Was "the Bad Guy" In Foreign Policy, and Also, Has "Small Dick"
—Disinformation Expert Ace
Oh man, they always throw in that last one.
Or so I've heard. From others.
I heard Larry O'Connor promise yesterday that more is coming.
Maine Senate nominee Graham Platner kept his hideous Nazi tattoo to remind himself "the US was the evil bad guy overseas," according to an ex-girlfriend with whom he cheated on his fiancée in 2021.The left-wing streamer, who spoke to The Post, is the second woman to say that Platner knew about the fascist origin of his Totenkopf skull and crossbones tattoo -- despite his claims that he didn't realize it was a Third Reich symbol until last fall.
Her assertions were backed up by texts reviewed by The Post that she'd sent to her mom in September 2025 in which she blasted him for his "Nazi tattoo," "small d--k" and claims that he tarnished her reputation by using her to step out on his fiancée.
The woman also offered allegations Platner cheated on a second partner before his current wife -- a now-ex-fiancée he was engaged to around that time.
"As a person who is a leftist, I immediately looked at him and asked him, 'Is that a Totenkopf?' and he told me a whole, 'he will hold this weight forever' bravado sob story about how it was, but he decided to keep it as a reminder that the United States was the evil, bad guy overseas," she recounted.
The woman spoke to The Post on the condition her name not be used.
On Wednesday, the woman publicly shared screenshots of private messages where she described the Nazi tattoo. The messages to her mother were dated Sept. 26, 2025 -- before his tattoo was publicly known.
"Better not take a peek at the Nazi tattoo on his chest," she wrote in another message to a pal.
...
"It seems like he tailored his answer to me, knowing my politics, since that's one of the reasons we matched on Tinder in the first place," she reflected.
...
She alleges that their romance together ended after she found out from mutual friends that Platner was engaged to another woman around that time.
...
The whistleblower told The Post she never wanted to come forward with her story but became concerned by what she saw as Platner's lying to the people of Maine about his tattoo, and a pattern of behavior toward women she saw in recent news reports.
She said she does not have her old texts with Platner because she deleted all his messages when she found out he was cheating.
...
Earlier this month, another former flame of Platner's, Lyndsey Fifield, told The New York Times that he was lying when he claimed to be unaware of the Nazi tattoo, recounting how he'd call it "my Totenkopf."
"I would never have known what that was," she told the outlet. "He would joke about it being a Nazi tattoo."
The outlet reviewed messages from Fifield last summer where she told friends that he "has a Nazi tattoo on his chest." She said he told her he got it because "they were like a death unit, they were killers" and he saw parallels to the Nazi SS.
Major Smallcock continues insisting that while his girlfriends and adultery-partners knew his tattoo was a Totenkopf, he did not. Because these girls didn't tell him, a "military buff" who actually chose the tattoo, what it was.
"I certainly didn't know," he added. "They didn't tell me that. Or maybe they did, but I was sobbing so hard over my pitifully small pecker I didn't hear them."
I may have added some vibes to that quote.
Princess Tinymeat is also lying about working. He does not work. He just sits in bed all day and wishes his dainty micropenis could satisfy an ant.
Democratic Senate candidate Graham Platner claimed that he has been able to "make a living on the sea" since leaving the armed forces during a Friday rally, an assertion his financial disclosures don't appear to support.Platner, who is running for Senate in Maine to unseat incumbent GOP Sen. Susan Collins, has long identified himself as an oyster farmer and harbor master, giving a blue-collar tinge to his left-wing campaign. Financial disclosures, however, show that he brings in relatively little money from oyster farming, with reports suggesting that Platner receives the majority of his income through veteran's disability payments.
"My healthcare gave me freedom," Platner said at a June 5 rally. "It gave me the freedom to take risks, to start a business and to sink my intellect and my physicality into mastering the skills necessary to make a living on the sea."
Platner's comments drew ire on social media, with many questioning the Senate hopeful's claim to working-class identity.
Platner's 2025 financial disclosures show that he listed "other $5,001" as his annual income from farming oysters. The candidate's entire business is only worth between $50,000 and $100,000, which accounts for his boat, lines, anchors and other farming equipment, per the disclosure.
He earned an additional $3,000 serving as the harbor master for Sullivan, Maine, -- a role the Washington Free Beacon reported was largely clerical and where he was responsible for overseeing the 17 boat moorings on the small town's coast.
Taken together, these sums are dwarfed by the $4,800 Platner says he receives through monthly disability payments. Platner is legally entitled to such a sum owing to injuries he suffered while serving in the armed forces.
"I've got a couple herniated discs. My shoulder's a wreck. My knees bother me. My dick looks like a tiny work poking its head up out of a bush," Platner, who saw combat in Iraq and Afghanistan, told News Center Maine in an October 2025 interview.
I may have added a little to Captain Bugfucker's quote.
Despite his reliance on disability, Platner has consistently referred to himself as an "oyster farmer" while campaigning for Senate.
"Oyster" = his tiny subwiener, "farmer" = masturbator
Update: Although that whistleblower says she deleted her texts, someone on twitter published this alleged text chain about Private Shamenoodle. He didn't tell me who supposedly wrote these.
"He's hot"? Sounds like bullshit. He looks like Captain Taggert in Beverly Hills Cock, with extra room in the crotch of his pants.
Meanwhile, Jodi Kantor, who got lots of attention as a #MeToo "reporter" -- I think she was played by the brown-haired wallflower actress in She Said, because she's a brown-hairdd wallflower-- and savaged Brett Kavanaugh for the invented Hippocampus Confabulations of Christie Blowjob Ford, now says that Gerald Platner's history of assaulting women is no big deal because you know what? Women fucking lie, don't they?
Jennifer Sey @JenniferSey9h
Jodi Kantor is going with the "he was just a bad boyfriend, he didn't do anything wrong" defense of Platner.
This is shameless. This woman wrote "She Said" about Harvey Weinstein's history of abuse and sexual misconduct. We were supposed to believe women.
Kantor seems willing to burn her own reputation to the ground to defend Graham Platner -- seriously? this guy? -- and to remain in good standing as a Democrat.
Pathetic.
Women always be lyin' about men that dumped them, you know?
jimtreacher.substack.com @jtLOLJodi Kantor completely waves away Lyndsey Fifield's accusations of Platner's physical abuse.
"There was one allegation of crossing a line physically, but..."
Yeah, Jodi, good point. Other than the violence, there was no violence.

HHS Investigating Terror PR Organization CAIR Over Possible Misuse of Federal Funds
—Disinformation Expert Ace
What?!?!
You want to know if this is a misuse of federal taxpayer money? Well I'm glad you came to me. It is. Obviously.
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services is investigating the Council on American Islamic Relations-California in response to a request made by a congressional delegation led by outgoing U.S. Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas.In April, the delegation called on HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to suspend funding for CAIR-CA and its affiliates and initiate debarment proceedings. It was done after a Department of Justice investigation was launched more than a year ago into alleged misuse of federal funds related to Afghan refugees.
"CAIR's longstanding ties to terrorist organizations, including Hamas -- a U.S.-designated Foreign Terrorist Organization -- combined with documented financial mismanagement and misuse of federal grant funds administered by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), pose a grave risk to national security and render CAIR unfit to receive taxpayer dollars," the delegation argued, The Center Square reported.
The DOJ investigation was launched in response to a March 2025 Intelligent Advocacy Network complaint filed with the DOJ urging it to investigate CAIR-CA's alleged misuse of federal funds and EOIR accreditation violations. It questions millions of dollars CAIR-CA received from the federal government including for an Afghan Legal Services Project, alleges CAIR-LA is not a legal 501c3 entity, alleges accreditation violations, and alleges CAIR ties to Islamic terrorism. In response, the DOJ's Executive Office for Immigration Review launched an investigation.
HHS Assistant Secretary Gustav Chiarello on Tuesday contacted California Gov. Gavin Newswom requesting cooperation. He reiterated that HHS has the legal authority to suspend or debar recipients of federal grant funds from participating in federal welfare programs if violations are confirmed.
The California Department of Social Services "has sub-granted more than $27 million in HHS-originated funds to CAIR-CA for Afghan refugee and entrant assistance programs," he said. "Congressman Chip Roy and other members of Congress have informed HHS that there may be connections between CAIR and the Muslim Brotherhood and its Palestinian branch, Hamas," a designated foreign terrorist organization.
So, once again, we have a "cleanskin" NGO taking government money and then immediately sub-granting it to a highly controversial organization that no government agency, even one controlled by Democrats, would ever fund directly, because they know the public outcry would be enormous.
So they continue allowing these NGOs to quietly, softly funnel money into what are completely inappropriate and often illegal (the Wuhan Covid Lab) purposes.
It's Official: Doctor Who Christmas Winter Holiday Special Cancelled
—Disinformation Expert Ace
You may be thinking: You already did this story, mate.
Well -- I don't think so, mate. I did a similar story, about no actor wanting to touch this franchise with a 10 foot pole.
But now it's official -- the Christmas Pagan Winter Festival Special is now cancelled.
They're not admitting -- yet -- that the entire series is now in the ashbin of history, but that's coming soon.
And gay producer Russell T Davies exits the series. I wouldn't make an issue of his sexuality, except for the fact he made his sexuality the main animating ethos of the series. So it's relevant -- he's gay, he's really really really proud of gay "Pride" culture, and he made a science-fiction show for children all about homosexuality, transgenderism, and Queer Culture.
And now he's out.
But they would have kept him on if they could land an actor to play the Fabulous Doctor.
The BBC is no longer going ahead with a "Doctor Who" Christmas special this year as planned and is seeking new production partners.
"Seeking new production partners" = our former investors are no longer willing to shovel money into this Pit of Shame.
Showrunner and writer Russell T Davies and producer Bad Wolf have officially exited the series as the BBC puts the show out to competitive tender. "'Doctor Who' remains an important part of the BBC and this tender underpins the BBC's continued commitment to 'Doctor Who' ensuring audiences will enjoy the show for years to come," a release said on Wednesday.
LOL. If BBC were really "committed" to the show they would fund it itself, not seek corporations willing to throw their money away to subsidize the dead show.
Therefore, the previously announced Christmas special will also not be going forward. "This decision was not taken lightly, and we know it will be disappointing for fans, but in order to set the show up for future series, it was decided that rather than bridge the gap with a one-off special, we are choosing to push forward to invest in the long-term future of the show which ensures that when the TARDIS lands once more, it does so in all its glory," the release stated.
You know who was fond of making announcements about upcoming projects? Kaffeine Kennedy, formerly of LucasFilm. She loved announcing new shows and movies. Cost her almost no money at all, so she didn't have to get approval from Disney corporate to "announce" a new trilogy to be directed by Patty Jenkins. Or Rian Round-Head Johnson. Or Kevin Fiege. Or... you get it.
You know who's also announcing a new Doctor Who series? I am. I'm announcing a new series which I'll be producing once rights issues are worked out with the BBC, and I get funding.
My series is just as likely to make it to air as this BBC/Corporate Partner TBD series.
In a post on Instagram, Davies said goodbye to the show, which he led from 2005 to 2010 and again since 2023 in tandem with BBC's co-production pact with Disney+. When Ncuti Gatwa departed the role of the Doctor after just two seasons last year, Disney+ exited the partnership and the series' future has remained uncertain ever since.
Well the series' future is no longer uncertain because I'm stepping up to produce it. Didn't you see my announcement? I am totally committed to my vision of this show.
Speaking of stories I've already covered: A couple of Fridays ago, I said that The Marmaduke & Garfield would fall into third place in its second weekend of exhibition. No Star Wars movie has ever fallen out of first place in its second weekend, but it was clear that The Mermaid & Gorgon would.
Well it did, but I didn't bother posting about it because I wanted to give you a break from the, I'll admit it, Endless Gay Fanboy Bullshit.
And then I didn't even mention it this week when The Marzipan and Fondu fell to sixth place, after the low-budget and apparently lame Scary Movie was released, as well as the gay toy revival Masters of the Universe. (Which is apparently decent, but... c'mon, He-Man hasn't been relevant since 1989.)
It'll fall further when Steven Spielberg's latest misfire, Disclosure Day, opens tomorrow.
Before the release of the latest Star Wars bomb, the studio bragged that it had a smallish budget of about $165 million. Studios never brag about how cheap their movies are, but Disney wanted to avoid headlines about the new Star Wars movie losing money.
But they didn't keep the budget low enough:
Star Wars: The Mandalorian & Grogu is currently projected to finish its global theatrical run slightly shy of the $300 million mark, hovering around an estimated $293 million to $296 million worldwide.The film opened on May 22, 2026, and after a surprisingly soft theatrical run--struggling against stiff competition from smaller-budget and viral-phenomenon films like Scary Movie and Backrooms--it has severely underperformed compared to other live-action Star Wars features.
Remember, another $80 million was spent on advertising and prints and theaters take about 50% of the box office, so this is another Star Wars movie that doesn't just underperform, but actually loses money.
Thank you for indulging me.
Here's some more relevant media news: Former 60 Minutes bitches bitch about Bari Weiss, a left-wing Obama-voting lesbian who is nevertheless too "far right" to be allowed a job in the totally-objective and impartial American corporate media.
Former '60 Minutes' Staffers Unload on Bari Weiss: 'Everything She's Touched Has Turned to S--'As Bari Weiss lays waste to "60 Minutes," six former staffers sound off on the damage she's inflicted upon the crown jewel of CBS News.
Staffers have taken to calling it "Black Thursday."On May 28, a half-dozen senior producers and correspondents at "60 Minutes," the longest-running and highest-rated news program in the country, were unceremoniously shown the door....
I spoke with six former "60 Minutes" staffers, including award-winning correspondents, producers and executives, about the chaos that's unfolded there under Weiss, a former op-ed columnist and founder of The Free Press who had no broadcast journalism -- and scant investigative reporting -- experience prior to being given the keys to CBS News.
"We have to acknowledge that '60 Minutes' needed a bit of a facelift, and there were potentially positive ways to improve the program, but it's the way they have gone about it," a former "60 Minutes" staffer says. "You don't give a facelift with a fucking machete."
...
Steve Kroft, who was a "60 Minutes" correspondent for 30 years until retiring in 2019, echoes Bergman's assessment. He believes that Trump has had it out for the newsmagazine since the Harris piece, and that Ellison and Weiss haven't demonstrated a desire to stand up to him. Ellison is, after all, still seeking FCC approval of Paramount-Skydance's $111 billion acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery.
Oh, that old fat queen is upset, too? Bonus.
The shrieking hysterics of 60 Minutes continue demonstrating the emotional restrain of Broadway drag queens.
Lesley Stahl Says Journalists Getting Fired Is Worse Than Child Trafficking, Nazi Torture Dungeons
'Oh God, this was awful,' multimillionaire laments after corporation restructures to compete in dying industry
Lesley Stahl has seen a lot of horrible things over the course of her career at 60 Minutes, but none of it can compare to the horror she experienced watching her fellow journalists lose their jobs for being obnoxious."Oh God, this was awful," Stahl told Puck when asked about the half dozen veteran producers and personalities who were fired along with Scott Pelley, the veteran newsreader and combat survivor dismissed for insubordination. "This was by far the worst experience I've been involved in, or even witnessed."
The worst experience she's ever even witnessed. By far. The Puck reporter observed that Stahl's voice "trailed off, as if she was still having trouble processing what had happened during the past week or so."
Stahl is 84--even older than Joe Biden. She lived through 9/11 and the Jimmy Carter administration. She witnessed the self-inflicted debasement of her former colleague Dan Rather after he reported on forged documents purporting to cast doubt on President George W. Bush's service in the National Guard. That was pretty bad.
What else might the iconic journalist have experienced in her career that was almost, but not quite, as traumatizing as corporate restructuring in a dying industry?
Well, Stahl's first story as a 60 Minutes correspondent was about child trafficking in Romania after the fall of Nicolae Ceaușescu. She visited a family that wanted to sell their four-year-old son for $500 to buy a camcorder. The following year, Stahl interviewed survivors of Josef Mengele's twisted human experiments at Auschwitz. In 2020, she was forced to endure interviews with Rick Wilson and Steve Schmidt, cofounders of the much-maligned Lincoln Project super PAC.
It's entirely plausible that Stahl was more disturbed upon learning that a handful of journalists had been fired by CBS. After all, she is a journalist, and many journalists have described Pelley's termination alone as one the greatest tragedies to befall mankind.
...
It's also possible that Stahl has mild to moderate dementia. Perhaps she can't remember watching parents negotiate to sell their children for color TVs. Her more recent output, on the other hand, is composed almost entirely of what industry insiders might call "vacuous fluffery."
Over the last few years, Stahl has examined the benefits of "gender affirming care," documented former congresswoman Liz Cheney's abiding hatred for Donald Trump, and extolled the (alleged) comedy of former Daily Show host Trevor Noah. Despite her reluctance to "become part of the story," Stahl performed a 60 Minutes monologue about her personal battle with COVID-19--a potentially harrowing ordeal given her advanced age, but less so given her exorbitant net worth.
Stahl encountered more traumatic experiences in 2025 while interviewing Yarden Bibas, an Israeli taken hostage by Hamas whose wife and two sons were killed in captivity. It's not entirely clear if Stahl viewed the hostages as victims, given her egregious attempts to empathize with the Hamas terrorists.

Whatever
—Disinformation Expert Ace
I guess I'm compelled to cover the daily diary drama of static stalemate and infinite "peace deals" about to be signed any moment now:
Based on the fact that discussions with the Islamic Republic of Iran have been brought to the highest level of Iranian leadership and approved, I have, as President of the United States of America, cancelled the scheduled strikes and bombings against Iran this evening. Discussions and final points have been, in both concept and great detail, approved by all parties involved, including the United States, Israel, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, Turkey, Pakistan, Bahrain, Kuwait, Jordan, Egypt, and others. The Naval Blockade will remain in full force and effect until this Transaction is finalized -- Time and place of the signing to be announced shortly.
Sure.
But I think I've heard this before 18 to 35 times before.
Unrelated: A Somali referee was denied a visa from the Trump Administration due to terrorist ties.
The left has decided he's a hero. NBC, for example, cries that he's a victim of Trump's draconian visa policies.
He is not an isolated case: 15 Iranian officials have also been denied entry, according to Iranian state media, as has the official Iraqi team photographer. An Iraqi player, Aymen Hussein, and other teams say they have been subjected to intensive and sometimes invasive searches at the border.
Oh no! Iranian officials have been denied entry into the country? And their only mission was to appear at a stadium, also known as a "target for a mass casualty event"?
The racism you guys, the sheer racism. My heart cannot take it.

Savage Anthony Karmelo Supporters Now Making Death Threats Against Austen Metcalf's Family and Randomly Punching White People in the Face for TikTok Clout;
White People Must Remain Calm and Not Cause Incitement or Division
—Disinformation Expert Ace
I mean obviously, it's on us normies being targeted by racial violence to be calm and not provoke thugs who have been taught that they have a free-floating right to attack or kill white people and if you challenge that right, then you are the next to be attacked or killed.
In fact, we should apologize to the Race Attackers for making it necessary to play the Knockout Game.
The media always attacks normal people for getting angry and becoming "radicalized" while they make infinite excuses not just for black assaults but for black incitements to commit assault.
Some "incitements," like the Crime of Noticing, should be punished by the state and, the state being absent, by Street Vigilantes enforcing Blood Reparations.
But other incitements to commit violence and demonization and dehumanization of another race are just "Good Trouble" which should be justified, defended, and amplified by the media.
wisted Karmelo Anthony supporters are bombarding the family of slain high school football player Austin Metcalf with sickening death threats, including a disgusting message saying Austin's twin brother, Hunter, should have also been killed.The hateful messages started after Anthony's arrest last April, but went into overdrive after he was convicted of Metcalf's murder and sentenced to 35 years in prison Tuesday -- with some of the heinous abuse even sent to their personal phones, according to TMZ.
"Your [sic] just mad bc Austin is no longer living. Should've stabbed hunter too ... he f--ked around and found out," one of the messages read.
The unhinged supporters have also threatened to show up at the homes of Metcalf family members, even saying they were desecrating Austin's grave, according to the outlet.
This nasty demon wrote an open letter to Jeff Metcalf, father of murdered Austin Metcalf, telling him that he is the Real Killer Here of his son because he failed to instruct his son that "black boys have boundaries," meaning, if you offer black males what they might consider "disrespect" they can (and should!) commit murder.
But you know, black economic inequality is caused exclusively by White Oppression and not at all by a thuggish culture that celebrates violence as "authentic blackness."
Full letter, containing "retarded racial propaganda," here.
And it's not just blacks -- white woke woman "allies" are, as usual, the unhinged Nazi propaganda ministers calling for the pogroms.
Are we really now at the state where black radical racists and "allies" openly declare what they have long hinted at -- that they have an unquestioned right to attack or even murder white people who do not afford them enough deference and "disrespect"?
Good luck with that!

Whistleblower Vindicated: Biden Officials Conspired to Violate Court Order Stating that "Transgender" Could Not be Classified as a Protected Categroy Under Title IX (Which Protects Women on the Basis of "Sex", Not "Gender Identification")
—Disinformation Expert Ace
Plus: After this article, the worst transgenders-in-girls-sports story I've ever read. I didn't want to put it in the headline. It's a very vulgar sexual violation committed during a sport.
High-ranking Biden administration officials conspired to violate a 2022 court order against their interpretation of Title IX as covering "gender identity" within the definition of "sex," and may have also tried to conceal those efforts through coercion and intimidation, according to a Department of Education report made public Wednesday after lengthy outside review.The U.S. Office of Special Counsel told President Trump the department "fully substantiated the allegations" by whistleblower Timothy Mattson, who now leads the department's Office for Civil Rights' regional office in Kansas City, recommending sanctions against current and former officials and compensation for Mattson for the risk he took coming forward.
"OSC has reviewed the disclosure, agency reports, and whistleblower comments," and "determined that the reports contain the information required by statute and that the findings appear reasonable," the agency's chief counsel, Charles Baldis, told Trump in a four-page letter.
The Feb. 19 "supplemental" report, compelled by the Trump administration's OSC after President Biden's OSC dismissed Mattson's allegations a month before the presidential transition, repeatedly names then-OCR Director Catherine Lhamon as the key figure directing Mattson and others to continue enforcing the gender-identity guidance.
"OCR's leadership actively engaged in efforts to thwart at least one OCR regional office (Region VII) [Kansas City] from following the plain and unambiguous meaning of the order" by U.S. District Judge Charles Atchley, a Trump nominee, who blocked enforcement of the guidance in the states that sued the feds, the supplemental report says.
The order validated years of accusations that Lhamon's office, which she led in the Obama and Biden administrations as assistant secretary for civil rights, misrepresented nonbinding guidance as legally binding, threatening federal funding for K-12 schools and colleges that didn't bend the knee.
Days after Atchley's order, in a virtual meeting with Mattson, Lhamon "stated that she planned to disregard the advice provided by" her own general counsel and the Justice Department "in navigating OCR's response to the Injunction." (Biden's OSC claimed Mattson "misunderstands the scope of the Court's injunction.")

UK Government Begins "Instructing" "Journalists" On How to Spin the Beheading Agenda They Have Ushered Into the Country
—Disinformation Expert Ace
As we see on the American left: the Real Crime isn't the real crime at all, the Real Crime is noticing the actual real crime.
And they will not tolerate the Real Crime of Noticing. Even as they instruct their pet "journalists" to convince the public to tolerate the actual real crime and show some understanding and empathy and above all else, "Remain Calm" and do not make a fuss.
Labour triggers Belfast attack censorship row as it sets out plans for new crackdown on social media content 'in times of crisis'Social media is to face new curbs during 'times of crisis' like the Belfast attack.
Technology secretary Liz Kendall has unveiled plans to amend online safety laws to allow regulator Ofcom to impose a crackdown at times of heightened social and political tension.
The move will allow Ofcom to require tech firms to take tougher action on material that could 'incite violence or disorder'.
It follows growing anger among ministers about Elon Musk's ability to 'amplify' public concern over incidents like Henry Nowak's murder and this week's knife attack in Belfast.
But it also threatens to trigger a major row about censorship -- and a potential clash with the White House over free speech.
In a statement posted on Mr Musk's X site, Ms Kendall said: 'Those who use social media to incite violence and disorder are breaking the law. Next week we will lay in Parliament an update to the Online Safety Act requiring services to take quicker action to remove illegal content circulating during times of crisis.'
So endless indulgence to foreign war-criminals, rapists, and escaped maniacs, but they're going to put out an arrest warrant for Elon Musk for not blocking the video that shows the crime they are complicit in themselves.
In a clip below the fold, a the Minister for Northern Ireland -- a leftwing Karen, of course-- makes that explicit, stating "I wish people didn't see that video."
"I wish we could just cover up our crimes forever and censor anyone exposing them."
That's what you meant.
She added: 'I have explicitly asked Ofcom to discuss urgently with X and other platforms how they will comply with the Online Safety Act.'
Government sources said the move would cover any material which Ofcom considers might incite violence or disorder.
Unlimited immigration from third word barabarian states is what directly causes violence or disorder, but they won't do a thing about that.
It is unclear who will determine what constitutes a 'time of crisis'.
It's pretty clear to me -- a "time of crisis" is any period in which the consequences of the left's Third Worldism Agenda are made visible to the public.
The prominent Reform UK politician Matt Goodwin urged ministers to focus on dealing with the causes of public anger rather than trying to police social media.'It's not social media that's "inflaming tensions",' he said. 'It's not Elon Musk. It's not Nigel Farage. It's not the "far-right". It is the very deliberate policy of mass uncontrolled immigration and open borders. This policy has to end or it will destroy Western nations.'<
Mr Musk responded to Mr Goodwin with a one-word post, saying: 'Exactly.'
But Labour Party chair Anna Turley said Mr Musk should stay out of sensitive political events like the Belfast attack.
...
'He has a responsibility - everyone in public and civil life has a responsibility to call for calm and not to stoke grievance or hatred or division or tension that puts vulnerable people and our communities at risk.'
Riots are the voices of the unheard. The left said that. Was that not true when you said it? If it was not true, why did you say it?

The Morning Rant: Will Europe Grow Up?
—CBD
One of the more corrosive aspects of American foreign policy with respect to NATO and Europe has been the infantilization of Western Europe. After World War II they quickly became militarily subservient to America, which, while understandable, created the conditions necessary for their massive welfare states and an equally massive shift toward cultural passivity. No longer did they see themselves as defenders of their countries and their lives...that was America's job, while they enjoyed six weeks of vacation and cradle-to-grave social services. Never mind that their medical care was awful, and their standard of living lagged far behind America's...everything was being done for them, including protecting them from the consequences of their passivity...the loss of martial spirit, patriotism, love of native culture, etc.
The results are clear! Europe is being subsumed under a tidal wave of third world immigration, led by the revolutionary political philosophy of Islam, that without some cataclysmic change will soon rule the UK, France, Belgium, and perhaps others.
Regardless of America's previous domination of European defense, it is high time that their cultures mend themselves and take responsibility for their military failings. It is axiomatic that a country that cannot defend itself cannot long survive, even in our post-modern malaise. The hordes crashing Europe's borders care not a whit about self-actualization and pronouns and transsexualism and gay marriage and policing free speech. They care about conquest, and they will succeed!
ECFR Poll: European Trust in US Defense Commitment Plunges
Europeans are increasingly questioning whether the United States would come to their defense in a military crisis, according to a new survey showing confidence in America's security commitment has fallen to record lows.The poll, released Wednesday by the European Council on Foreign Relations (ECFR), found that only 11% of respondents across 15 European countries now view the United States as an ally "sharing our interests and values," down from 22% in November 2024.
Researchers said the findings reflect "deep European distrust in the U.S." ahead of upcoming G7 and NATO summits.
While most Europeans still see America as a "necessary partner," majorities in every country surveyed said they no longer believe the U.S. would necessarily come to their aid if they were attacked.
This is magnificent news! It is the first step for Europe moving out of America's basement and finding its own place in the world! The real question is whether the existential ennui that infects most of Western Europe can be banished as they see the consequences of their subservience to American power.
Will France regain the martial spirit of de Gaulle? In 1966, he demanded that all American troops must leave France, and France left NATO's integrated command structure, leaving it as a free agent. Good or bad...it was national self-determination, and it stiffened the backbones of the French.
Will The United Kingdom regain the cold resolve of Margaret Thatcher, who dispatched the Royal Navy 8,000 miles to defend the Falklands? That was the last gasp of patriotism in the UK!
Will Germany return to the Germany of the 1980s; with a superb armed forces that knew it was first to do battle with the Soviet juggernaut, and was determined to succeed?
Time will tell, and the smart money is against all of that, but rejecting American dominance and accepting that they are all independent countries is a good start.

The Morning Report — 6/ 11 /26
—J.J. Sefton
Good morning kids.
The US military launched a fresh wave of strikes on Iran Wednesday evening, hours after President Trump warned additional attacks on the Islamic Republic were coming to try and force Tehran to re-enter serious peace negotiations. “U.S. Central Command [CENTCOM] forces began launching additional self-defense strikes today at 5:15 p.m. ET against multiple targets in Iran at the Commander in Chief’s direction,” the Tampa, Fla.-based combat command said in a statement on X. “The strikes are in response to Iran’s unwarranted and continued aggression.” . . . Asked what he’ll do if Tehran doesn’t make a deal, the president responded: “We’ll bomb the s–t out of them tomorrow.” Trump also revealed he spoke with top Iranian officials in the Situation Room who begged him to stop bombing.
Wait, what have we been doing for the past few months already?! Look, the Mullahs are an absolute existential threat to us and to civilization itself, but bombing the shit out of them thus far has not really done the job insofar as removing the danger posed by the regime itself which despite everything is still in power and given the nature of Islam will remain in power regardless of who the cardboard cutout-du-jour is today or will be tomorrow. And with that I give you this unsettling observation by friend and friend of the blog the estimable Robert Spencer
The Iranian state-controlled West Asia News Agency (WANA) picked up on the story, and it’s easy to see why. WANA reported Tuesday that “several foreign and Israeli media outlets have claimed that $3 billion worth of Iranian assets was transferred from Abu Dhabi to Tehran on a recent flight, reportedly as part of diplomatic efforts aimed at preventing further escalation in the region.”This was not a transaction that solely involved the United Arab Emirates and the Islamic Republic of Iran. WANA continued: “According to a report by Israel’s Kan broadcaster, the assets were transferred to Tehran on a flight from Abu Dhabi. The report alleges that, in return, Iran was asked to halt its attacks against Israel. Kan further claimed that the message accompanying the transfer, reportedly delivered on behalf of the United States, included assurances that Israel would suspend its military operations in Lebanon.”. . .Oh, surely not, right? This must be propaganda from Iran’s Islamic regime, right? They’re just trying to make Donald Trump look as if he has morphed into Barack Obama, bribing the Iranian leaders to be good so as to burnish his legacy and give the appearance of peace while actually kicking the problem of the Islamic Republic of Iran down the road for some future president to deal with — right?
Well, maybe. And yet… given Trump’s recent behavior, the report, which appears indeed to have originated with Israel’s Kan, is really not as farfetched as we all wish it were. Would Trump have done this, despite his previous disdain for Obama’s nuclear deal, and the billions that Obama sent to Tehran in addition to concluding that disastrous agreement?
. . .Sure he would. Trump is now avid to make a deal with the Islamic Republic that will bring down gas prices and allow him to claim victory (as well as, finally, get that Nobel Peace Prize he so desperately covets). He is drawing red line after red line for the leaders of the Islamic Republic and then allowing them to cross those red lines with impunity. He has ordered Israel not to retaliate to Iranian strikes, and shrugged off Iranian violations of his ridiculous ceasefire as unimportant, signaling for Tehran and all the world that he lacks the will to fight and will give anything, anything to the leaders of Iran’s Islamic regime if they’ll just let him play peacemaker. So why not three billion dollars? Yet at the same time, Trump said Wednesday: “We’re going to be attacking them and attacking them very hard.” He added: “I’ve been working with Iran for a number of months, and they should sign their deal. It’s a good deal. It doesn’t give them the right to have a nuclear weapon. In fact, it totally prohibits them from ever having a nuclear weapon.”
The Iranian Islamic regime will never agree to that. If it does, it will only be so as to buy time in order to gather its strength, in view of the moment when it resumes its jihad against the United States and Israel. In light of the fact that it has not ever really stopped that jihad, that moment will likely come quite soon, whatever Trump does at this point.
Well, I certainly hope Robert Spencer's fears about the President are unjustified and yet despite the pulverizing sustained aerial assault that no doubt the President and his advisers thought would cause the regime to collapse like a soggy biryani, the word negotiations is all the rage. The only thing that should be "negotiated" is the date and time of Iran's unconditional surrender. Oh well, oh well.
And that goes double to the nth degree for the Democrat Party and Leftists here at home. It and they cannot be eradicated (figuratively speaking of course) fast enough for my liking because for the better part of our nearly 250-year history they have gone pedal to the metal to quite literally eradicate us! The bitter irony of ironies is that they have used and abused blacks as the tip of the spear in their lethal assault on the American experiment. Yet again they have turned a black youth who brutally murdered a white classmate into the victim and the victim into the perpetrator. The reaction by this hack alleged singer is typical...
The case grabbed national headlines for ghoulish reasons. The facts were never in doubt, beyond the worst of the worst fever swamps. Metcalf was unarmed. Anthony used a small knife to stab the teen in the heart after a disagreement. That explains the jury’s quick pace. Singer Cardi B sees it differently. The “WAP” singer posted a series of comments on X yesterday decrying the 35-year sentence Anthony received for the murder. Cardi B Decries Karmelo Anthony Sentence: ‘Not Justice’
this foul shit-whore actually has a point. It was not justice because he should've got the death penalty.
On Tuesday, the House Judiciary Committee held a hearing on the Southern Poverty Law Center. Republicans are rightfully scrutinizing the organization's practices, and one of their witnesses was Dr. Alveda King.In case you're unfamiliar with Dr. King, she's a child of the Civil Rights movement. Her father is Alfred Daniel King, the younger brother of Martin Luther King Jr., and she's quite accomplished in her own right. She represented the 28th District in the Georgia House of Representatives as a Democrat, but she eventually switched to the Republican Party and has famously said that she is a Christian first before associating with any political party.
Like her father and uncle, Alveda has chosen to dedicate her life to speaking up for those who can't speak for themselves. However, in her case, it's the unborn — she's had two abortions and was nearly aborted by her own mother before her grandfather talked her out of it, and after becoming a born-again Christian in 1983, she changed her views on the matter. She believes abortion and racial discrimination go hand-in-hand, and has said that Planned Parenthood profits from killing "black babies."
She has served as an advisory board member for Black Voices for Trump, and she's currently the senior advisor on Faith and Community Outreach for the U.S. Department of Agriculture. She's also the chair of the Center for the American Dream at the America First Policy Institute (AFPI), and she has advised Donald Trump in other roles throughout the years.
But none of that is good enough for Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas). According to her, Dr. King isn't black enough. Or isn't King enough. Or something. . .
. . ."Congresswoman, I am a bit emotional. I'm going to watch what I say, but it seems as though you have suggested that I am a bastard to the King family legacy," Alveda said. "I am legitimately the daughter of the Rev. Alfred Daniel Williams King and Dr. Naomi Ruth Barber King. We are a family who loves God. And I love you. God bless you."
Not that Crockett was around to see it. She got up and left — you can hear the door slam — in the midst of Alveda's words.
To call Jasmine Crockett dog excrement would be a cruel and demeaning insult to canine feces.
Have a great day,

After Single Night of Fiery But Mostly Peaceful Protests, Two-Tier Keir Starmer, Who Did Not Mention Henry Nowak Until the Video of His Police-Assisted Murder Was Released, Is Johnny-on-the-Spot in Condemning Riots
—Disinformation Expert Ace
Belfast experienced some rioting last night.
The riots were, as the US media described the BLM riots, "fiery but mostly peaceful." There was disorder, Some People Set Fire to Some Vehicles, a house was burned, but they were "mostly peaceful," meaning no one was killed.
Fiery but mostly peaceful: The left has told us before that this is a perfectly acceptable and justifiable level of public disorder, at least when they want to press their political claims in the street.
"Riots are the voice of the unheard," they lectured us in the media.
The left in the UK is freaking out about the same level of rioting that they cheered on in the US.
Keir Starmer didn't condemn the BLM riots, of course. He called them "peaceful protests" by people "rightly demanding justice" and attacked Trump for opposing those riots.
But these riots -- these are not Good Riots.
Keir Starmer @Keir_Starmer
The scenes in Belfast last night were shocking and completely unacceptable.There is no justification for the violence and disorder that we saw threatening our communities, nor for those who encouraged it, online or elsewhere.
It is clear that people were targeted last night because of their background and I will not tolerate it. Those responsible will feel the full force of the law.
I've spoken to the Chief Constable of the Police Service of Northern Ireland to convey my thanks to them and the frontline emergency services for their bravery in keeping people safe. I've also spoken to the First Minister and Deputy First Minister to discuss the ongoing situation.
Appealing for calm must be the priority, and that is what I urge now. We must let the police get on with their work.
You know what I say? I am shocked and angered at the attempted beheading, and the reaction of the UK authorities to peaceful protests by people rightly demanding justice has been an affront to humanity.
That's exactly what you said, Keir. So fuck you.

Trump Signs Bill to Fund DHS and ICE Throughout the Rest of His Term
—Disinformation Expert Ace
The 80-day long (IIRC) Democrat shutdown resulted in chaos and disruption but ultimately failed.
They're the party of chaos and disruption, riots and "teen takeovers," subway knife attacks and women having their throats slashed open by infinitely-indulged homeless maniacs.
President Donald Trump on Wednesday signed legislation to fund key immigration enforcement agencies through the end of his term after Congress approved the package via the reconciliation process."This morning, I'm thrilled to sign the Secure America Act to immediately and fully fund the Department of Homeland Security through the end of my term," he said at the signing ceremony in the Oval Office.
The legislation followed a record-breaking shutdown of the Department of Homeland Security, which Democrats orchestrated in a bid to secure immigration enforcement policy concessions. Ultimately, the shutdown ended with Congress passing a bill to fund DHS that excluded funds for Border Patrol and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
Eric Daugherty @EricLDaugh🚨 BREAKING: President Trump SIGNS $70 billion in ICE and Border Patrol funding through the end of his term through 2029, meaning Democrats have LOST the ability to hold our border hostage in government shutdowns
BIG WIN! 🇺🇸
"The Secure America Act provides $38 billion to ICE, $26 billion to Border Patrol to ensure these critical law enforcement agencies of the necessary resources to do their jobs, protecting our borders and getting criminal aliens out of the country."

Jasmine Ratchett: "Black Women Live in Agony" Daily that Murdered Athlate Austin Metcalf "Never Lived Through" (Except The Day He Was Murdered by a Jasmine Ratchet Supporter)
—Disinformation Expert Ace
Was she ever murdered?
No?
So Austen Metcalf did actually experience agony of a kind that this fat donut disposal unit and sloppy whore can only imagine.
She also blacksplains that the knife used to lethally stab him through the heart is not really a deadly weapon at all. She says that in her opinion as a Real DEI Lawyer, she would have argued that the knife was not a deadly weapon, thus sparing Karmelo Anthony the death penalty, even though the knife is a weapon which was used to inflict an almost-instantly deadly wound.
She's a good lawyer, she really earned that J.D.

After Iran Downs Apache Helicopter, Trump Threatens New Round of Airstrikes
—Disinformation Expert Ace
Is he serious this time or is it more, you know, twitter bullshit?
Comments President Donald Trump made on Wednesday suggest that he may be losing patience with the ongoing negotiations with Iran, which have for months failed to produce a peace deal."They've taken too long to negotiate a deal that would have been great for them, now they will have to pay the price!!!" Trump said in a post on Truth Social.
The statement comes a day after the U.S. launched what it called "self-defense strikes" against Iran in retaliation for the downing of an Apache helicopter. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi warned his country will retaliate against the U.S. strikes, stating "no attack or threat" will be ignored.
Trump now says that the limited airstrikes of Tuesday and today are just the preamble, and that the long-planned attack on Iran's power plants and bridges is coming.
I have to say, I don't believe this. I think this is more saber-rattling to provoke Iran into signing a "deal" that they simply will never, ever sign.
And it would mean nothing point zero zero zero even if they signed it. They are lying, dishonorable, death-cultists animals.

Trump Orders the Postal Service to Not Deliver Mail-In Ballots to States That Refuse to Turn Over Their Voter Lists
—Disinformation Expert Ace
States' rights! States' rights! States' rights!
Postal Service won't deliver mail ballots for states that don't hand over voter lists, under plan for Trump directive
State election officials could soon face a stark choice: Hand over voter lists to the Trump administration or risk losing Postal Service delivery for mail-in ballots.That dilemma stems from newly proposed USPS rules that seek to comply with an executive order President Donald Trump signed this spring to crack down on mail-in voting.
Crack down on illegal mail-in voting.
CNN is garbage and I can't wait until they're all fired.
If courts let the order stand, it would give the federal government an unprecedented role in elections -- and could put even more voter data in the hands of Trump officials searching for supposed election fraud.
1, it's not supposed, and 2, this reveals that you did know the measure is intended to crack down on illegal mail-in voting, but chose to conceal that from readers out of a motive to propagandize for the Democrat Party and their legions of fake voters.
The proposed rules lay out new conditions that states would have to meet to send ballots through the mail, including giving the agency lists of all voters set to receive mail ballots.
So far, 23 Democratic-led states and the District of Columbia are suing, as are Democratic Party leaders and non-partisan voter advocacy groups, setting up a potentially active summer of high-stakes judicial rulings.
The Trump administration cleared an initial legal hurdle last month, when a federal judge in Washington, DC, who is overseeing one set of the cases, declined to block Trump's executive order, allowing the Postal Service to begin implementing it.
The Democratic Party groups are asking an appeals court to speed up its review of that decision, warning that voters around the country could be disenfranchised in this year's midterm elections if the proposal is not blocked.
In an interview with CNN, Maine Secretary of State Shenna Bellows, a Democrat whose state is part of the coalition that filed a legal challenge in Boston, said that if courts rule for the Trump administration, "Then you will see a virtual elimination of mail-in voting, unless the states supply voter lists to the federal government."
Yes, "unless" states obey federal directives in an area the federal government does indeed have supremacy over state law.
Look: Just secede already. You're agitating for it and I, for one, would love to be rid of you.
