Douglas Murray Addresses the Mass Murder of Christians in Syria
Murray is a most vociferous and brave defender of Western Culture. [CBD]
Brian Cranston is a nasty leftwing idiot
I never understood why people joined the mass delusion that he was a "serious actor." He's Tim Watley, that's it. That's as good as he gets.
The Ivy Exodus "As Ye Sow, So Shall Ye Reap." "Jewish" academics rejected their religion and culture long ago, and chose instead to worship progressivism. And they are paying for it! It would take a heart of stone not to laugh! [CBD]
CJN podcast 1400 copy.jpg
Podcast: CBD and J.J. Sefton dig into the Ukraine cease fire, the Z-man bending the knee to Trump, deporting a Hamas cheerleader from Columbia University, Taxing the rich by taxing endowments, egg prices, tariffs, and more!
Girl Scouts sued by New Yorker over alleged heavy metals, pesticides in Thin Mints, other cookies
Good. Thin Mints (or any other mint confection) are of the devil. [CBD]
It's Here! It's Here! The Liberty PAL-V flying car! [CBD]
CJN podcast 1400 copy.jpg
Podcast: CBD and J.J. Sefton are joined by Robert Spencer of Jihad Watch, perhaps the world's expert on the reality of Islam. We discuss the failure of Europe, the rigidity of Islam, the blindness of the West to that rigidity, and the possibilities for the future.
Starship launch and booster rocket chopstick catch
The second stage of the rocket was lost. I guess it was supposed to parachute gently into the ocean or something.
Correction on Gavin Newsom story: Newsom didn't go on Charlie Kirk's podcast. Charlie Kirk was the first guest on Gavin Newsom's new podcast, which he calls "This is Gavin Newsom," apparently intending it to be an Oprah Winfrey style star vehicle for making himself president
Noted High-Testosterone Male David Frum has thoughts on masculinity
The Mustard Fortune Nepo-Baby, who by the way is Canadian, has all sorts of ideas about the "shame" all "true Americans" must feel about Trump
Larry David quits SNL and then pretends it never happened
I said he told off Lorne Michaels. Michaels wasn't the producer that year, it was Dick Ebersol during the Martin Short/Billy Crystal season.
Boston Police Commissioner Offers Condolences To Armed Attacker Shot By Cops "This is a pretty tragic incident, Cox said. 'We don't look for loss of life and our condolences go out to the family of the individual.'" [CBD]
CORRECTION: I inadvertently reported that our NSA and CIA "intelligence" professionals were talking about "anal bleaching" in government checks while on the taxpayers' dime. In fact, they were discussing "butthole lasers."
"Butthole lasers" may be used for anal bleaching, but also for anal fistulas.
Laser treatments for the anus and rectum can be used for a variety of conditions, including hemorrhoids, fissures, and fistulas. Laser treatments can also be used for hair removal and anal bleaching.

I apologize to all "intelligence" professionals I maligned. I regret the error and vow to do better in the future.

The Morning Rant

talking ape.jpg
"Oregon may be a blue state, but it prides itself on not having a sales tax. It's true, even though a sales tax has long been on the progressive agenda, every time it comes up on the ballot, it goes down like Stormy Daniels at a casting party. Plus, the people who write the proposed legislation are all pretty much incompetent. For example, there was one sales tax proposal on the ballot back in the 80s that had a number of exemptions, for food and other basic items, which made a certain amount of sense, but there was also an exemption for newspapers. Newspapers? Why? Who lobbied who to get that exemption into the bill? So that didn't go over too well. Also, there was no mandatory income tax reduction. When people asked about it, the answer they got was, 'Well, let the sales tax run for a few years and then we'll think about it.' Yeah, right. That went over like a lead balloon. So they had the election and the sales tax proposition went down in flames. The only people who voted for it were a few little old ladies in tennis shoes and a pot-addled hippie in Portland who thought he was getting some free Twinkies. What would've been worth considering was if they had proposed a swap: eliminate the income tax entirely and replace it with a sales tax. But no, they always want both, they always say they gotta have both, because for most politicians, there's just no such thing as the government having too much money."
