In the 2018 midterm elections, the California Senate race is shaping up to be a really interesting race. The Media Jackals have been diverting as much of the attention from the race as possible, because---quite frankly---incumbent Diane Feinstein is much more vulnerable than she looks on paper.
What has the DNC and their media parrots rattled is reflected in the polls. Feinstein is currently polling at 31% according to the LA Times/USC Poll and at 38% according to Emerson. That's a huge lead over Democrat Primary opponents and potential GOP rivals. But---and this is important---Feinstein's numbers are about where Hillary Clinton's were in 2016; and like Clinton, Feinstein seems to have plateaued.
An Alt-RINO infiltrator named Patrick Little was being propped up by the Liberal Media early on. A rabid anti-Semite and Red-Pill Cultist, Little was ejected from the GOP and since then, his numbers (which were probably exaggerated by the Media anyway) have collapsed. He will not be the Republican nominee. The California GOP deserves a round of applause for standing on principle.
The Liberals' ploy to sabotage the Republicans with a stalking horse having been foiled; the Media is trying to downplay the opposition by claiming that California is a Democrat 'safe seat'. The facts, however, seem to indicate otherwise.
The top three Republican candidates are James Bradley (19%); Erin Cruz (13%); and the ubiquitous Roque Fuentes (8%). Total the numbers of these three and it's clear that a strong, popular candidate is quite capable of unseating Senator Feinstein. The Media pundits scoff and say that Feinstein will pick up the votes of other Democratic candidates and Independents. They said this about Hillary Clinton, too. Feinstein has exactly the same liabilities that Clinton had: an inability to win independents and an inability to win over the Far Left in her own party. It's likely that Feinstein's poll numbers will remain static unless the GOP somehow self-destructs.
So, yes: California is in play for the first time since the 1980's and the DNC knows it. If any Conservatives remain skeptical and say that California is "a solid blue state" let's just look at the 2016 Electoral Map, broken down by county:
Hillary Clinton won California by a margin of 61-32 percent. Already we see that the combined GOP Senate numbers are higher than President Trump's total vote percentage in 2016. What this means is simply that the Trump Agenda is gaining, not losing, support in California. And against a "hold-your-nose-and-vote-for-me" candidate like Senator Feinstein, this is a huge advantage.
So, national Republicans shouldn't be tempted to throw California under the bus. We can well imagine the blow to the Democrats' hopes if they lose Feinstein's seat.
Let's make it happen, shall we? MCalGA!
There's some interesting news out of Paris, where we see another example of good men doing good things. In this particular case, an toddler strayed out onto his parents' 4-story apartment balcony. Somehow, he crawled onto the neighbors' balcony. There, he slipped and was hanging by his fingers. His parents heard his cries, but couldn't reach him.
The child's cries reached the streets below, and that's when 22 year-old Mamadou Gassama sprang into action.
It took Gassama a mere 30 seconds to scale the building, four stories (about 50 feet) up. He took the child while balancing on a ledge, and returned him to his parents.
As it happens, Gassama is an undocumented alien from Mali. But today, Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo recommended that he be rewarded with full French citizenship---which the French Immigration Bureau promptly granted. He's become something of a celebrity, with the French Media dubbing him The Spiderman of Paris.
This story is such an interesting contrast of true manhood in action vs. the petty carping going on in much of the so-called Manosphere. Nobody had to tell Gassama how to be a man; he simply was one. Even moreso: he is a Black African, whom most of these 'Alphas'
consider to be their inferiors.
Thus it isn't surprising that nobody among the Red Pills had a peep to say about Gassama; though (as usual) they were busy trashing other men and encouraging mistreatment of women. Maybe we'd see a lot less of feminist misandry on the Internet if men like Mamadou Gassama got more attention than the blowhards posing as 'Alphas.'
The Media Hyenas always beat the drum for tighter gun laws every time a violent criminal commits some murderous act. But they dutifully sweep under the rug the growing number of armed citizens and policemen who stop crime with weapons. The pro-2nd Amendment Trump Administration has, I believe, created an atmosphere whereby Americans---including the police--- are no longer afraid to fight back. The Left, which held power for so long, was always the defenders and protectors of the criminal class. It's that whole birds of a feather concept.
So this weekend in Holly Hill, Florida (a suburb of Daytona) Heriberto Feliciano was closing up his Little Caesar's Pizza store when a thug wearing a hideous demon mask forced his way in and attacked Feliciano with a club. The scum hit the clerk in the head and shoulders with such force that the club broke---knocking Feliciano to the ground. He then pulled out a pair of scissors, but---Feliciano pulled out his concealed handgun. Mr. Demon-Mask got fairly well ventilated "four or five shots", according to CBS-47 News.
The thug died en route to the hospital and Feliciano is recovering at home from his injuries. Police officials told CBS-47 that the attacker's identity is currently unknown, but was likely a transient. This is the same class of people infesting our city streets whom the Liberals assure us pose no threat to society---unlike law-abiding gun owners.
There's been an ongoing debate in the United States for the last several years about the escalating wave of violence and what to do about it. But recently, there has been an increase in the number of people, like Feliciano, who have stopped attacks---even terrorist and attempted mass-murder attacks---simply by fighting back. It's really Newton's Law applied to Sociology: an irresistible force will continue in motion until stopped by a greater force.
However much Liberals want to promote the Opiate of 'nonviolent resistance', Newton's Law remains true. Nonviolence and passive resistance only works against opponents who believe in civilized behavior and fair play. People like Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King could win concessions from governments like Britain and the US have. Their tactics never would have worked in Bolshevist Russia or Nazi Germany. We know from history that there were early peaceful protests and demonstrations against these regimes: and also that the demonstrators never came out of those assemblies alive.
The principle here is that there is no way to compromise with evil except meeting it with force. What Liberals fail to understand about evil is that it is always irrational. Feliciano's desire to live and the unknown thug's desire to kill him is not a mere philosophical difference in metaphysical ethics. The failure to understand the irrationality of evil is how the Liberal and Neocon Deep Statists got away with as many crimes as they did for so long; and also why under their administrations evil so frequently triumphed among the general population.
It's simply nonsense too to speak---as the Liberals do---about America's 'gun culture' as the problem. It's a problem of evil, and countries without such a culture are just as susceptible as we are. Norway doesn't have much of a gun culture, yet Anders Brevik committed a mass-murder there which (proportionate to population) was as devastating on Norway as 9/11 was in America. China has a strong anti-gun culture; yet they are plagued with narcotics-related violence and Jihadist terror attacks just as we are.
The right of self-defense is a fundamental right---a right that has been recognized in Western jurisprudence since even prehistoric times. The Liberals need to come out of their safe spaces and realize that, as President Reagan said, "All men are not angels." And as most Western religions teach us, even some angels fell into sin and became devils. The good angels defend us from the devils; likewise it takes good men to defend us from the evil men. While it is so that all men are created equal and all have the potential for good, not all men choose to exercise that potential. Thus, "the wages of sin is death" both on the physical and spiritual planes.
Shortly before embarking on the Memorial Day Recess, President Trump signed a full pardon exonerating the late American athlete, Jack Johnson. Johnson was known as The Galveston Giant and was US Heavyweight Boxing Champion from 1908-1915. Johnson---like a few modern Black celebrities---was the target of a racially-motivated 'sexual harassment' campaign.
In recent years, a grass-roots effort was initiated to clear Johnson's name. Trump's act finally accomplished a project stalled for a decade by the Deep State hypocrites. The story got very little attention in the Corporate Media. I accidentally came across at Yahoo while checking e-mails. Now, I haven't read anything from Yahoo News in a long time. As I started into this article, I remembered why. It started thus:
"There is a particular irony in the fact that it took Donald Trump, hardly a champion for the rights of African-Americans and other racial minorities, to be the one who pardoned former heavyweight champion Jack Johnson..."
I could only get as far as that. This is exactly why I stopped reading Yahoo News: it's nothing but the lowest and sleaziest grade of faux journalism. Yahoo News not only promulgates a mixture of snide innuendo and outright lies; it does so in the most obnoxious and snarky manner. The paragraph above is fairly typical of their gutter-level non-standards. It was written by a dunce named Kevin Iole who, like many modern pundits, is a sportscaster with no journalistic experience. Incidentally, his incompetence has garnered for Iole a net worth of about $1.6 million.
It should be noted that our first African-American President, Barack Obama refused to grant Johnson a pardon. He did so on the advice of our first African-American Attorney-General, Eric Holder. They did so because of the objections of Hillary Clinton. Part of the sex scandal concocted against Johnson was domestic violence---which in 1912 meant for a Black man to cohabit with a White woman. To the Democrats these days, committing heterosexuality is worse than being a racist.
(The photo above is Johnson and his wife, Lucille. This is the same woman whom he allegedly 'violated' in 1912. Sex scandals then were about as phony as they are now.)
It's also not widely reported that Republican Senator John McCain and Republican Congressman Peter King were the principal sponsors in Congress lobbying for Jack Johnson's rehabilitation. But as the 2018 Election Cycle starts revving up, we'll no doubt hear an endless litany of the 'Trump-is-a-racist' schmaltz from the likes of Kevin Iole and others. If the Media jackals would expend as much time actually reading any of the Administration's Press Releases as they do dreaming up canards, they would see that the Trump Administration has aggressively enforced Civil Rights Laws and worked to the benefit of minorities.
But the Media will never report these things. After all, they both created the myth of the sexually-uncontrollable Black man and the myth of 'sexual harassment'. It started in the early 90's when President Bush appointed a Conservative Black man with a White wife to the Supreme Court. Judge Clarence Thomas referred to the Media coverage then as "a high-tech lynching" and the Media has been lynching prominent Blacks ever since. After Thomas, 'superstar' O.J. Simpson was accused of murdering his White ex-wife. Although it took a jury less than an hour to acquit Simpson, his reputation was destroyed. Following this was Mike Tyson---accused of 'raping' a woman by performing oral sex on her. Then there was basketball star Kobe Bryant. In the 2016 Election, the 'inclusive' Left-Wing Media launched a sexual smear-campaign against Dr. Ben Carson. Today, Bill Cosby is being lynched after a bunch of middle-aged white women just now remembered that they were 'raped' 20 or so years ago.
The Media do this for profit. The majority of the people who follow the Mainstream Media are lower-class, uneducated Whites---the same group who form the backbone of the Democrat voter base. They enjoy watching powerful Black men (especially ones with White girlfriends or wives) brought down and trashed. The upper and middle-class White Liberals enjoy it too; it's vicarious action compensating for their sexual frustrations and perversions.
And, of course, the Media moguls like it because it translates to high ratings and a big cash flow. They have never been the friend of Blacks or any other American minorities.
Yesterday, President and Mrs. Trump visited the 11th Annual Campaign for Life Gala at the National Building Museum in Washington, DC. Also in attendance were White House Official Kelly Anne Conway, Congressman Steve Scalise, and Senators Steve Daines and Roger Wicker. Former model Kathy Ireland---now a mother of three and outspoken abortion foe---served as moderator and hostess.
President Trump gave the Keynote Address, which was about 30 minutes long. Trump is the first sitting President to have attended.
"When I ran for office, I pledged to stand for life. That's exactly what I've done...One of my first acts as President was to reinstate the 'Mexico City Policy' which prohibits US tax dollars from funding abortion practices overseas...then a few months later...we signed the legislation overturning the rule that forced States to fund abortion providers with tax dollars."
At this point, we should remark that less than two years ago, the Obama Administration and thuggish State AG's like Washington's Bob Ferguson were not only funding these corrupt institutions, they were actively trying to stamp out medical and charitable organizations who refused to provide abortion-related materials. What a difference this Administration has made! Trump continued:
"And today we are making another historic announcement. For decades, American taxpayers have been forced, wrongfully, to subsidize the abortion industry through 'Title X' federal funding. So today, we have kept another promise. My Administration has proposed a new rule to prohibit Title X funding from going to any clinic which performs abortions."
This announcement drew a thunderous applause from the crowd. If this goes through, this will be one of the most significant blows to the abortion racketeers yet. To understand fully its importance, we need to comprehend its historical context.
When Roe vs. Wade was decided by the Supreme Court, the Court's only ruling was that abortion was a constitutionally protected right and that governmental entities could not prohibit it. Nowhere in that decision did the Court make a new law or mandate taxpayer funding for abortion---or, for that matter, even impose upon private clinics and insurance providers any obligation to fund it. The Whacko Left immediately began demanding these things; but the Ford Administration took the position that it was essentially an elective surgery and therefore not covered by any social welfare necessity. This is where those exemptive clauses in various laws about "in cases of rape or to save the life of the mother" came about. There was even at the time a short-lived debate in many States as to whether 'no-fault' abortion should be legalized, or whether both father and mother had to consent.
The 1976 Election of Jimmy Carter brought the issue to a head. Carter was in favor of full federal support for abortions. Title X had been introduced in 1965, but passed under the Nixon Administration. It was designed to have federally-funded clinics for low-income persons. Carter began the policy of covertly funding abortions by contracting out to abortion-mills like Planned Parenthood. The abortion-funding debate split the Democratic Party back then and was responsible for the loss of practically the entire Conservative wing of the Party.
By stripping federal Title X funding for abortion-mills, the Trump Administration is going to end this policy which was aimed first and foremost at destroying the familial integrity of lower-income Americans.
Trump then announced support for the 20-week Abortion Bill which would end late-term abortions. The Bill passed the House, but is currently stalled in the Senate by Democrats and Swamp-RINOs. Personally, I would rather see a Bill banning abortion at any stage in a pregnancy, but under Roe vs. Wade, that currently isn't doable. Trump pointed out the little-known fact, that the US is one of only seven countries in the world which allow elective abortions after 20 weeks. If the public knew that in general, they would see how extreme our laws currently are.
The whole of the President's speech may be viewed on the website of the Susan B. Anthony List, who hosted this event, and which is included in our Blogroll here.
Marjorie Dannenfelser, chairwoman of SBA-List and former head of the Pro-Life Coalition during the Trump Campaign summed up it well:
"The Trump Administration has made unprecedented gains for life. With President Trump leading the charge and pro-life grass-roots activists energized by his agenda, we are closer than ever to ending the injustice of abortion and restoring a society which protects every mother and child."
I would like to attend next year's gala, and hear that it will be the final one because pro-life objectives have been achieved. Wouldn't you?
Vox Day has been taking a few short intervals from releasing his jealous rage against Jordan Peterson and Jonah Goldberg to shore up his failing foray into comics. So with great fanfare this week, the publishing-front Arkhaven released its first issue The Crackdown.
Right off the bat, you notice something familiar about RINO-Girl's arm:
Lest we suppose this was unintentional, the promotional on Amazon reads in part: "How is a group of superhumans based in Europe going to establish global justice?"
Maybe with pseudoscience:
At any rate, Vox got to appear on The Alex Jones Show ---a media outlet which promotes the Sandy Hook Massacre as a hoax--- and got their endorsement for the new series. And Vox tells his disciples: "Alex is right: the Left is panicking over Arkhaven's flagship series." Actually, nobody is panicking over it. Mostly, outside of Vox' cult, it's mostly being ignored. The website Comic Book Round-Up, which tracks all of the bestselling new releases, doesn't even mention it.
Looking at the work itself, it suffers from a number of problems. There is very little dialogue and the comic itself seems much shorter than most produced by other publishers. The artwork ranges from mediocre to terrible:
And it's actually not all that clear what the title has to do with the plot. This is another one that you'll get to pick up in the 'clearance section' of your local retailer's in about a week.
While there's plenty of need for better comics, this stuff out of the Game/Red Pill Cult isn't going to provide it. In fact, if the Whacko Left was going to produce a comic that was a parody of the Right, it would look just like this Arkhaven material. Even down to giving the hero a Vox Day haircut.
It's been awhile since we lasted checked in on the misadventures of Andrew Anglin, a Red Pill cultist who edited the now-defunct The Daily Stormer. Attorneys on behalf of the Gersch Family and Jewish residents of Whitefish, Montana sued Anglin after a Christmas-time orgy of internet terror was unleashed against them at Anglin's instigation. Like most of these self-appointed manly Alpha leaders do when threatened with the consequences of their behavior, Anglin ran away and went into hiding.
After a year of running, the Plaintiffs' attorneys filed a motion demanding that Anglin present himself for trial or accept a Summary Judgment. Anglin's attorney finally appeared and argued a few technical points that were thrown out. However, the judge did not dismiss one objection---the most important one involved in this case---that suing Anglin was an unconstitutional violation of his 1st Amendment rights.
Anglin's attorney Marc Randazza summed it up this way: "It is distasteful, but the 1st Amendment tolerates distasteful content. He has a right to express himself politically, to express himself socially, and to call people to action. If we are to reject free speech because it comes from an unorthodox group, we do violence to the very underpinnings of our liberty. Nazis are unorthodox in America; yet the rule of law must govern."
But earlier this week, Montana Attorney-General Tim Fox filed a Motion of Intervention in the case, arguing that Montana's Anti-Intimidation Law is not prohibited by the 1st Amendment. Judge Jeremiah Lynch agreed, and Anglin's Objection was dismissed. Formal trial is now set for some time around the New Year; although Anglin retains a right to appeal.
The Free Speech aspect of this case has generated considerable controversy. However, Randazza's argument has a major flaw in it. His argument would make sense if a governmental agency prohibited Anglin from speaking. But that isn't what this case is about. In this case, Anglin's words inflicted intentional harm on a specific family; and that family is seeking monetary damages for what Anglin organized and encouraged.
If a husband is accompanying his wife on a public sidewalk and some human sewer-rat accosts her with insulting language and lewd comments, the husband is well within his rights to close his opponent's mouth with his fist. The cad has a 'right to free speech' but he also has to accept the consequences of such speech. It's an old maxim in America that 'with rights come responsibilities.' This is why we have laws against libel, defamation, slander, etc.
In our egocentric and narcissistic era, many Americans do not realize that Rights are not unilateral. One person's exercise of his rights doesn't negate the rights of others. This is one of the most important---but most often overlooked---differences between Liberals and Conservatives. Liberals fully believe, for example, that we all must forfeit our right to privacy in public restrooms because some tiny fringe demands the right to use whichever gender's facilities it pleases. Alt-RINOs like Anglin believe that no one has the right to personal privacy and security at the expense of his right to attack them at will.
It will be interesting to follow and see how this case develops. Anglin is also facing two other unrelated federal lawsuits.
