Same Tactic, Different Places

I often hear this complaint when I’m at the liquor store to replenish my gin supplies:

Kim, why the hell do you spend so much time talking about what’s happening in Yurp?  What they do has so little to do with us here in Murka!”

Rather than argue the rationale, I’ll just go to the example reel, and play the movie:

France’s New Guillotine: Silent Dictatorship

On March 31, 2025, the Paris Criminal Court sentenced Marine Le Pen to five years of electoral “ineligibility” with immediate effect…. This sentence, described by the defendant as a “witch hunt”, bars the frontrunner in the polls from standing in the 2027 French presidential election.

The aim of this maneuver is clear: to remove the opposition leader from competing for the highest office in the land.

Never mind that this happened over The Pond in Frogland.  If anyone can’t see the similarities between that and what the Left tried to do to Trump a few years ago, they are, to put it bluntly, fucking dense.

The Left, in both countries, have enlisted the aid of the politicized judiciary (and its lapdogs, politicized law enforcement) to try to stymie the election of someone who is far and away the most popular politician in the country:  Le Pen Over There, and Trump Over Here.

Of course, what the Leftist DOJ did to Trump happened, as I said, some years ago, whereas the same thing happened to Le Pen just a couple months ago.

The order is unimportant.  What’s important is that the Left are not going to stop trying to do the same, over and over again.  Whether it’s because of alleged “wrongspeak” (in Yurp) or manufactured crimes (Trump), the end goal is the same:  stop the voters from electing the “wrong person”.

Or the “wrong” political party.  Step (goose-step?) forward, our old friends from Krautland:

Germany’s spy agency on Friday classified the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) as “extremist”, enabling it to step up monitoring of the country’s biggest opposition party, which decried the move as a “blow against democracy”.

A 1,100-page experts’ report found the AfD to be a racist and anti-Muslim organisation, a designation that allows the security services to recruit informants and intercept party communications, and which has revived calls for the party’s ban.

“Central to our assessment is the ethnically and ancestrally defined concept of the people that shapes the AfD, which devalues entire segments of the population in Germany and violates their human dignity,” the BfV domestic intelligence agency said in a statement.

“This concept is reflected in the party´s overall anti-migrant and anti-Muslim stance,” it said, accusing the AfD of stirring up “irrational fears and hostility” towards individuals and groups.

And anyone who can’t see the parallels between the actions of the  Gestapo  BfV and our own beloved Biden-era CIA and FBI are also fucking dense.

So yeah:  I continue to observe the goings-on outside our shores (especially in Yurp), because for those who still haven’t seen the wood for the trees, the Stalinist Comintern is alive and well.

These Commie bastards have comrades-in-arms all over the world.

This article caught my attention:

Britain’s ‘ghost’ island: Tragic reason why last residents of remote archipelago left 95 years ago today

He’s talking about St. Kilda in the Outer Hebrides, and I believe the answer may be found on this map:

…which makes me think of only one thing:  future internment camp for illegal aliens.

Yeah, tell me you didn’t think of that too.

Speaking of squealing…


...I think I remember reading this headline back in the 1960s — although the “slaughterhouses” part has most certainly come true in most Democrat-controlled cities, anyway.

...hey, if we’re going to use quote marks around ‘raped’, I thought we might as well go the whole hog.

In Political News:


...a.k.a. when Elon regained his common sense and stopped feeding his own vanity.

In Sex News:


...getting arrested is not usually the result of this activity on PornHub (or so they tell me).


...considering it happened about a hundred years ago, this might not be that big a deal.


...in which we play our popular “Guess The Race” game.  (clue is in the headline itself) Then there’s the new game:  “Guess Why White People Are No Longer Going On Carnival Cruises (Or Visiting Six Flags)”.

And now for some salacious 

    
...nope, I have no idea who the dramatis personae are, either.

And as we saunter down   :

Apparently she’s gone celibate because reasons.  Whatever.

That’s news?  Good question.
