Felonia’s Greatest Masterpiece

Posted on February 17, 2022 | Comments Off on Felonia’s Greatest Masterpiece

A hoot plus, from historian Victor Davis Hanson:

“Hillary Clinton by now is an old master of scandals. Her lifelong oeuvre is vast — the cattle futures scam, Rose law firm missing documents, Travelgate, Uranium One shenanigans, missing emails, and the Steele dossier.

“But the ongoing effort of her paid associates to tap into the top-secret communications of a presidential candidate [and the White House] and further use such illicit information to ruin the American presidency will go down as her greatest masterpiece of deceit.”

Racial arson in a bankrupt age

Posted on November 30, 2021 | Comments Off on Racial arson in a bankrupt age

“As soon as it was revealed that the Waukesha mass murderer was a black career criminal who hated white people, it was a no-brainer to state that the huge story would fade from view as quickly as possible and that any reference to it would eliminate the perpetrator as much as possible.”—Neoneocon

“Both Wisconsin towns, Kenosha, and Waukesha, about 50 miles apart by car, were the recent sites of multiple deaths. The violence in both made national news. Yet in contradictory ways both reflected the common themes of America’s current legal, media, and societal corruption.”—Victor Davis Hanson

NFL on the brink

Posted on July 16, 2020 | Comments Off on NFL on the brink

“If the multibillion-dollar NFL decides that multimillionaire players have no obligation to stand to honor a collective national anthem, and that there will be separate anthems and politicized uniforms, then millions of Americans will quietly shrug and change the channel.”—-Victor Davis Hanson at PJMedia

The woke but godless

Posted on July 9, 2020 | Comments Off on The woke but godless

Classicist historian Victor Davis Hanson:

“Historically, the tips of the spears of cultural revolutions are accustomed to comfort. But they grow angry when they realize that they will never become securely comfortable….

“The woke but godless, the arrogant but ignorant, the violent but physically unimpressive, the degreed but poorly educated, the broke but acquisitive, the ambitious but stalled — these are history’s ingredients of riot and revolution.”

Which is why they’ll likely go on rioting in Pedo Joe’s high-tax, big government regulations economy, and why they’re likely to stop if/when the Trump low tax reduced-regulation capitalist economy gets going again.

UPDATE: Meanwhile AG Barr says the FBI has arrested 150 rioters and has 500 ongoing investigations into the riot instigators. Yes, only 150. And Bull Durham’s probe of the Deep State also is coming up a dud.

Giants they were

Posted on October 11, 2019 | Comments Off on Giants they were

Watching a Bob Hope-James Cagney dance routine (yes, Hope could dance) I was reminded of this recent essay by historian Victor Davis Hanson:

“Our ancestors were builders and pioneers and mostly fearless. We are regulators, auditors, bureaucrats, adjudicators, censors, critics, plaintiffs, defendants, social media junkies and thin-skinned scolds. A distant generation created; we mostly delay, idle and gripe.”

Our first third-world state

Posted on June 30, 2019 | Comments Off on Our first third-world state

It’s Mexifornia, of course. Where historian Victor Davis Hanson sees:

“We have the highest income tax rates,” said Hanson of California. “We have the highest gas tax rates. We have among the highest sales tax. Our schools [and] our infrastructure is in the bottom ten percent. I don’t remember one out of every three people being admitted to a hospital suffering from diabetes in California. When I was growing up we didn’t have two or three dialysis clinics in every single little town. We have an epidemic of health problems and yet the money to address that is such that we can’t spend it on infrastructure.”

What happens in California stays in California. Let’s hope.

Jew hate increasing

Posted on May 19, 2019 | Comments Off on Jew hate increasing

“So here is the near future: Every time the New York Times runs another anti-Semitic cartoon (and it will), each time a left-wing member of Congress questions the patriotism or morality of American Jews (and one will), and on every occasion Jewish students are harassed on campus (and they will be), we go another mile down the road to the well-known historical disaster that is looming ahead.”

Except this time Jews will not be disarmed. The sheep dogs among us will be carrying, while the sheep prattle on about love-thy-neighbor.
