Just yesterday, I wrote about Britain’s decline as its embrace of unlimited immigration from Third World (mostly Muslim) countries and its commitment to the insane Net Zero carbon dioxide metric are leading it toward a Muslim-controlled polity and a pre-modern energy infrastructure. Today, I awoke to two more reports about Britain’s decline, this time related to speech and self-defense. These reports matter because the leftist British approach to governance is what the Democrat party desperately wants to see in America.
The first story comes from The Telegraph, Britain’s (slightly) right-of-center outlet, and its title says it all:

The jockey who rode Sovereignty to victory at the Kentucky Derby last week has been fined over $60,000 for striking the horse with his riding crop too many times during the race, according to the Horseracing Integrity and Safety Authority.
Junior Alvarado was found to have struck the horse with his riding crop “more than the permitted amount” during last week’s race, violating the authority’s rules, it said in a statement Saturday.
A penalty was imposed against Alvarado on Friday for committing the Class 3 violation and he was hit with a fine equating to 10% of his $310,000 winnings, the statement said. The fine was then doubled “pursuant to an

Call me a silly goose, but I remember watching the news when I was a kid growing up in Detroit, and seeing recalcitrant, soap-dodging Marxist hippies becoming intimately acquainted with the business end of the policemen's billy clubs, thus compelling them to rethink their "rebellious" plans for the evening. Hilarity ensued. My, how things have changed.
For starters, the "rebellious" beatniks have changed drastically. The male hippies of the 1960s no longer look like a hirsute Expedia troll, à la George Harrison on his iconic LP, "All Things Must Pass."
FACT-O-RAMA! For you youngins, LP stands for "long play," meaning a full-sized record album

On May 5 Star Tribune reporter Paul Walsh covered the filing of charges against German Adriano Llangari Inga. Llangari Inga — “of Minneapolis” — was charged with driving drunk, unlicensed, and uninsured when he killed Victoria Eileen Harwell in a head-on crash on August 3, 2024, nine months before the charges were filed.
When I wrote to ask Walsh if he could ascertain whether Llangari Inga was an illegal alien, Walsh corresponded with me in an obnoxious fashion. I followed up with ICE on my own and received this statement on May 6:
U. S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement placed a detainer on German Llangari Inga, 35, of Ecuador, with the

The province of Alberta has a legitimate grievance with the ROC (Rest of Canada).
According to the Canadian Taxpayers Federation, since the inception of Canada’s equalization program in 1957, which sees the wealthier provinces subsidizing their less fortunate counterparts, Alberta has made a net contribution of $67 billion, $2.9 billion alone in 2021 — which in turn represents only a portion of the province’s immense financial contribution to federal coffers and the governments and residents of other provinces.
The Fraser Institute notes that the equalization drain represents “just a small part of the province’s outsized contribution to confederation in recent years.” It calculates that “the gap between Albertans’

Former President Joe Biden appeared on “The View” earlier this week, and Democrats are about as happy as a housefly in a spider web.
The former president sat down with the ladies on “The View” and discussed his presidency while slamming President Donald Trump, saying he had “the worst 100 days any president’s ever had.”
Biden laughably suggested that he was in full control of his faculties while serving as president. However, he did take a modicum of responsibility for the Democrats’ humiliating losses in 2024, saying, “I was in charge, and he won.”
There were some rather awkward moments during his appearance in which his wife, former first lady Jill Biden,

I'm going to enjoy writing this too much.
The FBI and the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Albany, N.Y., have opened a criminal investigation into allegations of mortgage fraud involving New York Attorney General Letitia "No One Is Above the Law" James, a source with direct knowledge of the probe confirmed to The New York Post. The investigation, initially revealed by the Albany Times Union, comes on the heels of a formal referral to the Justice Department by Federal Housing Finance Agency Director William Pulte, who last month urged prosecutors to examine James’s conduct.

I’m in New York for last night’s Manhattan Institute’s annual Alexander Hamilton Award dinner. Held last night at Cipriani on 42nd Street, this year the award honored long-time Manhattan Institute chairman Paul Singer. As of last night, Mr. Singer has stepped down and been succeeded as MI chairman by Betsy DeVos.
Mr. Singer is the founder and president of Elliott Investment Management. He is also the philanthropic supporter of conservative and Jewish causes.
Is that the reason that the lunatic left was out in force at the event last night? I don’t know, but they were. If NYPD had not been out in force to provide security along with others, the “protesters”

An alligator attacked and killed a woman who was canoeing with her husband on a central Florida lake Tuesday afternoon, authorities said, after her spouse tried unsuccessfuly to fight off the predator.
The attack occurred near the mouth of Tiger Creek into Lake Kissimmee, south of Orlando, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission said. It's near the same location as a March alligator attack in which a woman was bitten on the elbow while kayaking.
At a news conference Wednesday, FWC Maj. Evan Laskowski said the woman was sitting in the bow of a 14-foot canoe when the attack happened. She and her husband were in about 2.5 feet

In our modern age, the electric grid is the mother of all networks. Without electricity, advanced forms of transportation and communications virtually grind to a halt and nearly all digital and electronic devices are rendered practically useless. When the grid goes down, we lose conveniences like air conditioning, lighting, and other amenities that we often take for granted.
Several days ago, Spain, Portugal, and parts of France and Belgium lost power for an extended period of time, demonstrating just how devastating a total grid collapse can be to our modern way of life.
During this colossal blackout, the largest that Europe has ever experienced, more than 50 million people

CLEARWATER, Fla. - Dozens of residents were urgently evacuated from a 12-story condominium building on Tuesday after construction workers discovered a growing crack in a support column in the building’s parking garage.
What we know:
The incident unfolded quickly as Clearwater Fire & Rescue and Clearwater police officers went door to door, evacuating about 60 people from the South Beach III Condos, located at 1460 Gulf Boulevard. No injuries were reported, and the building has not collapsed, but officials say no one will be allowed back inside until engineers deem it safe.
"This is a very well-managed building," said resident David Zuzman, who was forced to leave with his two children. "I’m shocked."

Michelle Obama says she’s back in therapy as she begins her “transition” to the “next phase” of her life.
I’m not kidding; that’s exactly what People magazine is reporting.
According to the article, during a recent appearance on Jay Shetty’s "On Purpose" podcast, Obama opened up about her current focus on mental health. She revealed that after years in the spotlight — including eight in the White House as first lady — she’s now turning to therapy to help guide her through this personal transition.
“At this phase of my life, I’m in therapy right now because I’m transitioning, you know?” Michelle said, according to the magazine. “I’m 60 years old,
