WWI + WWII = WWIII?

Britain’s civilizational collapse bothers me. As much as we Americans enjoy defining ourselves by the whooping our ancestors gave to the Crown, Brits and Yanks share a common language, enjoy similar beliefs, and broadly relate to one another. Rebelling against the British Empire is one thing. Watching foreign peoples conquer what’s left of that empire in another thing altogether. Every day the United Kingdom becomes less united and more likely to collapse upon itself. The U.K.’s media Establishment used popular actor Idris Elba to promote a documentary last year entitled, “Our Knife Crime Crisis.”

Your thoughts, comments, and ideas are always welcome here. But we ask you to please be mindful and respectful. Threatening or crude language doesn't persuade anybody and makes the conversation less enjoyable for fellow L.Dotters.

Knife attacks are due to corporate profits?? When the answer is staring you in the face. Don't just stop importing Muslims. Throw out the ones you have.

The French refusing to allow our aircraft to use reminds me of the Euros' clueless attitude. Apologies if posted before. Then there was a conference in France where a number of international engineers were taking part, including French and American. During a break one of the French engineers came back into the room saying ‘Have you heard the latest dumb stunt Bush has done? He has sent an aircraft carrier to Indonesia to help the tsunami victims. What does he intend to do, bomb them?’ A Boeing engineer stood up and replied quietly: ‘Our carriers have three hospitals on board that can treat several hundred people; they are nuclear powered and can supply emergency electrical power to shore facilities; they have three cafeterias with the capacity to feed 3,000 people three meals a day, they can produce several thousand gallons of fresh water from seawater each day, and they carry half a dozen helicopters for use in transporting victims and injured to and from their flight deck.. We have eleven such ships; how many does France have?’ You could have heard a pin drop.

With major flashpoints in Ukraine and Iran, one has to wonder how many more major flashpoints are needed to declare a world war. The biggest difference is in the next world war, the US may be going it alone or find new allies. Our traditional European allies are the perfect example.

Not too long ago (84 years), the United States joined the British Empire (and the wonderful glorious Soviet Union) as allies to defeat the Axis powers. From Sept 1939 until Nov 1942, England fought alone against the Nazis and Italians, against the Kriegsmarine U-Boats and defended the island nation against invasion. THAT is the England that I would love to see emerge from the ruins that Starmer and his weakness are causing. And England wants to eliminate Winston Churchill from the pound notes. A very dark time; the sun may be setting on them after all

Robert Mueller’s Dishonor Came Before

Robert Mueller, who died on March 20 at age 81, once stood as a symbol of public integrity. His record was not merely respectable. It was exceptional. He served as director of the FBI for 12 years, having been confirmed by a 98-0 Senate vote, and took office just days before the Sept. 11 attacks. He was a decorated Marine, awarded the Bronze Star and Purple Heart for his service in Vietnam. His leadership helped transform the FBI into a counterterrorism-focused agency during one of the most perilous periods in modern American history. By the time he was appointed special counsel in May 2017, Mueller was widely described as beyond reproach.

Cesar Chavez, founder of the United Farm Workers, eventually became the symbolic leader of the entire Mexican-American community of the 1960s and 1970s. Indeed, he was eventually enshrined in the pantheon of modern leftist activists and civil rights leaders alongside Saul Alinsky, Martin Luther King Jr., and Betty Friedan. His Chavez Foundation today emphasizes Chavez's saintlike status as "a genuinely religious and spiritual figure." His Tehachapi redoubt remains a national monument. In public, Chavez stressed nonstop his common-man roots, his strong Catholicism, and his devotion to wife and family, and thereby turned the struggle to provide a livable wage and humane working conditions for farm workers

For nearly a decade, Americans were told that powerful institutions had been weaponized against a sitting president and his supporters. Intelligence agencies, federal law enforcement, and political operatives were accused of bending the machinery of government toward partisan ends. The promise from President Donald Trump was clear: expose it, clean it up, and drain the swamp. Now more than a year into Trump’s second term, many voters are beginning to ask a simple question: Where are the results?

Occasionally I hear credentialed professionals with prestigious titles whine about the so-called “war on expertise.” It really bothers people who see themselves as “experts” that a growing share of society ignores them. A psychologist might intuit something revealing from the lack of self-confidence plaguing our “expert” class. If all the fancy degrees, voluminous curricula vitae, and lofty career positions have failed to instill a resilient modicum of self-esteem, then perhaps all those things are not the true measures of a person’s worth. “Experts” do not like to be challenged. They say things such as, “I have a PhD in this,”

Presidential hopeful Gavin Newsom has been taking time away from destroying my state that he governs to hit the 2028 campaign trail, and he made a bit of short-lived news with his stop in Atlanta to have a discussion with Mayor Andre Dickens and a crowd largely comprised of black attendees to promote his new memoir, Young Man in a Hurry. “I’m not trying to impress you,” he said, “I’m just trying to impress upon you … I’m like you, I’m no better than you. You know, I’m a 960 SAT guy,” and he continues by saying that he never reads his speeches because he “can’t read.”

In an era of digital banking, Ukraine has been discovered to be transporting tens of millions in cash and gold by discreet armored vehicles throughout Europe. Naturally, the suspicion is money laundering, which is highly likely considering the nation; more likely yet considering how much of the American taxpayers’ dollars have gone “missing,” coincidentally finding its way into the bank accounts of Ukraine’s political class, or back into the political coffers of Washington D.C., funding both Democrats and Republicans.

Last night, San Francisco’s mayor, Daniel Lurie, was attacked by two men while being driven through the Tenderloin district. According to a report from an ABC News outlet, the confrontation arose after a group of people blocked the SUV that Lurie was being driven in; at one point Lurie himself exited the vehicle to engage the individuals on the street, but quickly scuttled back behind the safety of his security detail when the confrontation turned physical. Classic. Clearly the men were bums, based on the handcuffed man’s appearance:

The puzzle pieces are falling into place faster than the Deep State ever imagined. The case against the Clintons as a crime family, which I laid out in 2019 when I discussed their Deep State RICO conspiracy, has just been validated by fresh evidence. John Solomon nails it with the “Clinton Corruption Files.” Irrefutable documents reveal that Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel sent to Congress in late 2025 confirm a “massive bribery operation” through the Clinton Foundation—specifically, foreign interest donations in exchange for State Department favors during Hillary’s tenure as Secretary. Three FBI offices (New York, Washington, Little Rock) independently flagged pay-to-play,

Decades from now, when historians finish poring through the millions of Epstein documents and 300+ gigabytes of data, the uproar of today, I suspect, will be lumped into the same category as the Satanic panic of the 1980s and the daycare sex-abuse hysteria of the 1990s: More hype than substance; more conspiratorial fearmongering than fact-based reporting. Because, after both Republican and Democratic administrations reviewed them, there’s just not any there there. Instead of an avalanche of evidence about foreign espionage, blackmail schemes, and Jeffrey Epstein being the James Bond of pedophilia, a far gloomier image emerges:

After weeks of waiting, the Supreme Court ruled against the Trump administration in a decision addressing whether President Trump had authority to impose sweeping tariffs without congressional approval. At the heart of the issue was whether President Trump had such authority under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA), a law that allows presidents to take economic actions during a national emergency and to impose broad tariffs without Congress passing tariff laws. In a 6-3 decision, the Supreme Court ruled that President Trump exceeded his authority
Steve Bannon: Friend of Jeffrey Epstein

In the second term of Donald Trump’s presidency, few homegrown political controversies have been as tedious or corrosive as the prolonged Jeffrey Epstein scandal. Among right-wing media figures, precious few bear more responsibility for fanning the Epstein flames than Steve Bannon. This was not because Trump’s administration was part of some cover-up. I purely believe it was because Bannon chose provocation over truth, spectacle over resolution, and self-preservation over honesty. By early 2026, the factual record was no longer ambiguous.

Democrats did not turn a blind eye to Rep. Eric Swalwell’s (D-CA) alleged behavior, Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) said during an appearance at the American Public Transportation Association’s legislative conference this week, stating that she had “no idea whatsoever” about these accusations. Pelosi, 86, was confronted on whether or not Democrats have turned a “blind eye” to the sexual misconduct accusations against Swalwell, who has since suspended his gubernatorial campaign and announced a coming resignation from Congress. No. That’s not true,” Pelosi denied. “That is absolutely positive — and it is true that they may say that, but it is absolutely not true.” When asked if Pelosi had any idea —

But maybe Leo isn’t a fan of Exodus or Deuteronomy. Or the Bible. Maybe he is a cafeteria Catholic. Or maybe he is a closet Muslim. Or maybe he really doesn’t believe there’s a difference.There is a great wall protecting Vatican City. The wall is two miles long and 39 feet tall. It is made of thick, solid brick. Pope Leo IV ordered the construction of the massive barrier around the year 850 A.D. to shield the city-state from invaders. It was deemed crucial to keeping invaders out. But the fortification, stout as it is, isn’t stout enough to keep the staggering and repulsive hypocrisy emanating from Pope Leo XIV in.
Spanberger signs bill ending tax breaks

Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger (D) on Monday signed into law a bill eliminating tax exemptions for multiple organizations connected to the Confederacy. Democrats in the Virginia House and Senate passed HB167 with vote totals of 62-35 and 21-17, respectively, earlier this year. The bill specifically removes the Virginia Division of the United Daughters of the Confederacy (UDC) and the Confederate Memorial Literary Society, among other similar groups, from the list of organizations exempt from state property taxes. The UDC, a nonprofit, was founded in 1894 by women “seeking to honor their family members and ancestors” who served in the Confederate military or contributed to the Southern war effort, its website states.

DENVER (KDVR) — An attempt to save Denver’s only lesbian bar has failed only days after the community raised more than $80,000 in donations to keep it open as infighting among owners and staff led to the business’s immediate dissolution. The Pearl, one of just a few dozen lesbian bars in the U.S., on Saturday announced it would close at the end of the month after falling behind on paying staff and performers as well as building costs to maintain its location in the historic Mercury Cafe. The Pearl had only been open for a year and had more than a couple past problems during its existence.

FLAGLER COUNTY, Fla. — Kevin Cichowski, an aspiring Florida governor who declared his candidacy for the Democratic primary, faced domestic violence charges on Monday. Cichowski, 46, a 2021 Palm Coast mayoral candidate, injured his 82-year-old father and his 76-year-old mother on Friday at their home in Palm Coast, according to a Flagler County Sheriff’s Office deputy’s arrest report.Cichowski struck his father on the head with a firearm that he also pointed at his mouth, ear, and groin, while he “threatened to shoot and kill him,” according to the deputy’s arrest report. His mother — who was bedridden — reported Chichowski snatched her cellphone and struck her in the head with it,

FrontPage Magazine’s Daniel Greenfield reported today on a piece of newly proposed legislation (AB 2624) that would criminalize any sort of investigative journalism in California, particularly as it pertains to “persons…in the immigrant community….” Read: Don’t touch our Somalis, or anyone else running the same grifts. (We’re apparently back on the “transparency is a bad thing” train.) If you do, you’re guilty of “harassment,” and the harassed is entitled to substantial financial compensation through a court of law—the bill reads the awarded amount can be “up to a maximum of three times the actual damages” and never less than $4,000.

It's always good to see out-of-control judicial activists get smacked down, especially by their own peers. Which brings us to Judge James Boasberg, who's done more than any of them to try to shut down President Trump's legitimate power to govern. He's in the donkey seat now, berated by a higher court for his 'abuse of power,' as they put it. According to the Washington Times: A federal appeals court delivered an embarrassing spanking to U.S. District Judge James Boasberg on Tuesday, ordering him to shut down his “intrusive” criminal contempt of court investigation against the Trump administration.

If you want to get a feel for where the Democrats are without having to pay the New York Times, there's probably no better source than the Huffington Post — and HuffPo just slipped former Vice President Kamala Harris the shiv.

Democratic Operatives And Donors Hope Not. Harris is like this drunk buddy of mine from way back when, and not because of the drunk part. Well, not entirely because of the drunk part.

A Department of Homeland Security employee was murdered by a convicted felon immigrant who was naturalized under the Biden administration during a bloody killing spree in Georgia early this week, officials said Wednesday. Lauren Bullis, who worked as an auditor at the federal agency, was shot and stabbed in Atlanta when 26-year-old Olaolukitan Adon-Abel allegedly went on his deadly rampage on Monday morning. Bullis, a 40-year-old auditor for the DHS, had taken her dog out for a stroll when she was targeted as part of three random attacks allegedly carried out by the madman across the city.

Hippos typically live exclusively in the wetlands, lakes, and rivers of sub-Saharan Africa... unless an infamous drug lord imported them to South America in the early 1980s, was fatally shot about a decade later, and the ones he kept as pets escaped, adapted to the region, and created their own colony. You may or may not recall that at the time Pablo Escobar was killed in 1993, he owned hundreds of exotic animals, including four hippopotamuses that he reportedly imported from a wildlife center in Texas, which were kept at his Hacienda Nápoles estate. After his death, the Colombian government deemed them impossible to seize, so they were just left there,

Boston Mayor Michelle Wu is handing out $500 vouchers to migrants so they can enjoy haircuts, massages and other self-care benefits, despite the city's budget plunging nearly $50 million short. Applicants who are 'low-income, isolated queer and trans migrants, asylum seekers and refugees' are prioritized for the 'wellness allowance.' The initiative, called 'Boston Matters', was created by OUTnewcomers, a nonprofit that advocates for LGBTQ+ migrants in Boston alongside the Mayor's Office for Immigrant Advancement, Mass Daily News reported. Applicants get $250 to $500 toward 'non-clinical care' completely funded by the city agency, which is run by the Democrat's administration.
