Robin Wright, longtime member of the Hollywood glitterati, tells The Times that she feels “liberated” in fleeing the United States for the “freedom” of England. (snip)The Times’ gushing profile was published on Saturday, just two days before five Metropolitan Police officers arrested Irish comedy writer Graham Linehan at London’s Heathrow Airport on charges of expressing an opinion. Linehan, co-creator of the popular sitcom Father Ted, was returning from the U.S. to the land of “freedom of self” when the speech police grabbed him “on suspicion of inciting violence via his posts on X.” What violence did he incite?

England is pretty far gone. It may be too late to save them. And they VOTED for this.

Clearly the UK needs a new government and a UK example of the US First Amendment relating to real “free speech”. The King over there, if he has any balls at all and is intent on the monarchy continuing, should issue a Royal Proclamation dissolving the current UK Parliament thus setting up a new general election. Then it will be up to the British people to straighten out the current suicidal political situation there. If the British people don’t do that, all the world can do is watch the UK commit national suicide and become a future Islamist Caliphate with a Islamic Star and Crescent being displayed on what their future flag turns out to be! I intend to fly into the UK on Saturday!

Starmer is such a weak person that he has to have the mike of any opponent turned off. No matter, Starmer, your mouth makes a fool of yourself any time it is opened anyway.

There is NO free speech in UK. At least as bad a Nazi Germany or East Germany after the war.

Crisis... what crisis? The UK has no Constitution, so they merely *had* a tradition of free speech. Now they have a new tradition... it's called "thought policing." They do that so that the people who wear badges can scare the bejabbers out of *someone* (mostly elderly native Brits), while rapes of teenage girls by invading hordes go completely unnoticed. Congrats, UK... you're in your *new* "normal"...

It's time to relegate England to the rear of any political consideration from here on in! What they have become is absolutely DEPLORABLE and are no longer deserving on any special consideration! Remember 1812!

Dearborn Heights, Michigan, Mayor Bill Bazzi announced Friday that the new Arabic police patch was not “official” — but didn’t rule out adopting such a badge of surrender in the future. A Facebook post from the police department posted earlier this week read: “The Dearborn Heights Police Department [DHPD] is proud to share a new optional patch that our officers may wear as part of their uniform,” (snip) The patch, according to the post (which appears to have since been removed), “incorporat[ed] Arabic script alongside English” and was “designed … to reflect and honor the diversity of our community – especially the many residents of Arabic descent who call Dearborn Heights home,”

It’s perfectly fine that people are raising questions about the legality of President Trump unilaterally ordering military strikes on suspected drug smugglers boating out of Venezuela. But the tell that Democrats and the dying media don’t genuinely care about constitutional integrity issues is in the way they talk about America’s raging, deadly drug problem as if it’s a matter of selling loose cigarettes. They don’t like the idea of confronting a very real problem, so instead they trifle with questions of legal authority.An “analysis” piece this week by The New York Times’ Charlie Savage is a prime example of the media feigning concern for legality while revealing that he

The voting process at the Minneapolis Democratic-Farmer-Labor (DFL) Party convention in July was such a mess that state DFL leadership investigated and nullified the local party’s endorsements. Now the Minneapolis DFL wants the state DFL to restore the results it nullified and give the endorsement back to DFL candidate Omar Fateh, a member of the Democrat Socialists of America (DSA), KSTP Television reports. Fateh is challenging incumbent DFL Mayor Jacob Frey, who came in second in the shady Minneapolis endorsement convention.The Federalist previously reported that the Minnesota DFL’s Constitution, Bylaws and Rules Committee (CBRC) investigated the local convention and found the voting process had “substantial failures.”

“Doctors are being paid to vaccinate, not to evaluate,” Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said in a recent video. “They’re pressured to follow the money, not the science.” Doctors administer dozens of vaccines to many children in the United States. Adults are also advised to receive multiple shots. Here’s what to know about vaccines and payments. What Does the Literature Say? A review of studies confirms that some doctors profit from vaccinating. In a 2020 paper, researchers found when analyzing three years’ worth of vaccination claims for five Colorado clinics that reimbursements averaged 125 percent of costs, making administering vaccines “financially favorable across the practices.”

Have federal district judges peaked? Democrat judges, especially Biden judges, have been issuing insane rulings trying to stop President Trump from doing pretty much anything. These rulings are so bad that even Justice Kagan, hardly a Trump pal, was baffled by them. I’ve argued that these rulings are literal lawfare, there’s no pretense that these various blocks are even legal, they’re there to force Trump to go to the Supreme Court. And then the Supreme Court, especially its weakest man, Chief Justice Roberts to mull over what the cocktail party set will say and cringe over being accused of being a rubber stamp for Trump.

We’ve covered the story extensively—Donald Trump sees the ongoing, unthinkable level of crime and violence that goes on daily in the nation’s capital, decides to do something about it, federalizes the Metropolitan Police Department (MPD), and deploys the National Guard. What happens? Crime plummets to levels not seen in years. If you’re a Democrat, however, you don’t like this for several reasons: 1) It makes President Trump look good, which you can’t stomach even if lives are at stake, and 2) you don’t actually care about crime and don’t mind seeing it continue in our nation’s cities.

The Joe Biden autopen fiasco isn’t over, and it never went away. It just went dormant for a bit, but we knew something was going to drop, and it has. President Joe Biden signed a trove of clemency petitions before he shuffled out of the White House. There are concerns that he wasn’t cogent or even aware of what he was signing. That issue presented itself with executive orders, as told by Speaker Mike Johnson. The mountain of clemency petitions was navigated by a shoddy chain of command among top Biden staffers, and again, it presented issues about whether Joe Biden was aware of what was going on

Drawing from over 100 peer-reviewed studies, it outlines 17 distinct biological mechanisms by which the injections may initiate, accelerate, or reactivate malignant processes.

In an unprecedented escalation of Islamist persecution, Jamaat-e-Islami — the Bangladeshi ideological offshoot of the Muslim Brotherhood (MB) — has begun imposing the jizya tax on Hindus and other non-Muslims, openly declaring its intent to replace the country's secular democratic framework with Islamic sharia law. Backed by Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence, and linked to global jihadist networks, including Al Qaeda, Jamaat-e-Islami's move comes just months after a coup that brought Muhammad Yunus to power, triggering a rapid rise in radical Islamic influence. This development threatens not only Bangladesh's fragile democracy but also poses a strategic security risk to South Asia and the wider free world.
