Catastrophe Is Left-Wing
Posted By: Hazymac, 8/6/2026 7:43:27 AM
There is a pattern that repeats with disturbing regularity: when left-wing or socialist policies dominate power, crises not only arrive — they worsen, are managed through ideology, and end up costing lives, prosperity, and social cohesion. This is not an accident. It is the result of a worldview that prioritizes narrative, social engineering, and political control over effectiveness, prevention, and reality. The 2008 financial crisis, the COVID-19 pandemic, uncontrolled mass immigration, and energy failures are clear examples. The United States is not immune: what Europe and Spain have suffered with particular intensity offers a direct warning for America. The 2008 crisis was global, originating in the American financial system,

ISLAMABAD — Renowned British-Nepali climber Nirmal Purja and nine other climbers swept away by an avalanche in Pakistan are confirmed to have died, and search teams were trying to recover their bodies, Purja’s expedition company said Saturday.
“The world has lost one of mountaineering’s greatest climbers,” the company, Elite Exped, said in a statement, adding that all the lives lost were being mourned. “No words can ease the pain of this unimaginable loss.”
The 10-member expedition was swept away by an avalanche Thursday on Pakistan’s Broad Peak.
Rescuers found four bodies and recovered three of them Friday in harsh weather that hampered flights by search and rescue helicopters.
Is America going socialist?
14 replies
Socialists have won one Democratic primary after another this year. Of course, Democratic primary voters represent a thin slice, the leftward-most portion, of our electorate. Still, socialism as a viable popular movement in the United States represents a radical departure from our history. How wide is the appeal of socialism, really?
Rasmussen headlines “Voters Overwhelmingly Reject DSA Policies,” and its findings are interesting. But while the Rasmussen survey tests four policies being advocated by the Democratic Socialists of America, socialism is not one of them. And I don’t find the results to be particularly reassuring:
Does Climate Change Cause Forest Fires?
14 replies
Liberals are quick to blame forest fires on “climate change,” without any evidence as to how the conditions under which a particular fire broke out are different from those of last year or decades ago.
In fact, acreage lost to wildfires is at an all-time low because of improved forest management techniques. Worldwide, acreage burned by wildfires is believed to be lower than ever before, including pre-human historical times. In the U.S., acreage burned is down by around 80% since the 1920s and 1930s, as the Healthy Skeptic notes: (Chart) The recent slight uptick is due, I believe, to the fact that California has turned forest management over to environmentalists,

Aryna Sabalenka, the current No. 1 women's tennis player in the world and a four-time major champion, is endorsing the Women’s Tennis Association’s (WTA) newly implemented genetic testing requirements for its athletes.
Speaking at a press conference during the Canadian Open, the Belarusian star discussed the need to preserve fairness on the women’s tour.
"Biologically, men are way stronger than women, so I feel like it would not really be fair for women to compete against biological men," she told reporters. Sabalenka added that she is fully prepared to undergo the genetic screening herself, calling the policy a necessary step to protect the integrity of the sport.
Calling the WNBA’s Bluff [Updated]
11 replies
Something like 80% of Americans oppose allowing men to play in women’s sports leagues. That is, after all, the entire point of having women’s divisions and leagues–women play against other women, not against men.
For a sports organization like the Women’s National Basketball Association to come out in favor of allowing men (“trans women”) to play in their league is the height of perversity. If men could play in the WNBA, there soon would be no women left and no purpose to the league. And yet, multiple WNBA coaches and others associated with the league have come out in favor of letting men play. I can think of no reason

You remember Sen. Tim Kaine (D-VA). He's the former governor of Virginia who's now the commonwealth's junior senator. He's a Catholic who loves abortion. He'd like to nuke the Second Amendment. And the more illegal aliens in the U.S., the happier he is.
Oh, and he was Hillary Clinton's vice presidential pick back in 2016. As one of his constituents, I like to think of him as Tim "Jazz Hands" Walz 1.0 – Tim Kaine was "weird, white beta male trying to be normal, but failing miserably" before his party and the "other Tim" made it popular. (X) Quite the pair, those two.
Ever since Donald Trump sent the dynamic duo
Free Speech Can Get You Killed
1 reply
Free speech is on life support in the U.K., as exemplified by this clip from the Oxford Union that has been bouncing around on social media. The Oxford Union, once a symbol of free speech, now stands for something very different. Here, a woman whom I take to be a member of the Union tells Tommy Robinson that there is a mob outside that would kill him if it weren’t for the security he had generously been provided. She seems to think this is a good thing: (X) I would note two additional things: the attention she pays to the Union’s ethnic breakdown, the Left’s ongoing obsession, and her reference
Cuba’s electricity grid collapsed late Sunday, the state-owned grid operator said, plunging the island of about 10 million people into darkness as blackouts become more frequent.
The outage follows three nationwide blackouts in July and comes as a U.S.-imposed oil blockade further strains the island’s aging energy infrastructure.
The Union Electrica de Cuba gave no further details of the situation in its posts on X and Facebook.
Pressure on the power system has mounted as Cuba struggles to secure fuel imports. It lost a key source of fuel after an oil blockade imposed by President Donald Trump, following Washington’s Jan. 3 ouster of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro.
Look, we all know that Francesca Hong is nuttier than a fruitcake that is filled with nausea-inducing berries, but as she enters the home stretch before the August 11th primary, not to mention the soon-to-be-kicked-off general election, you would think she would want to consolidate the vote in her own party and start making herself look acceptable to Independent voters.
Nope, she intends to finish strong, if by strong you mean leaning into everything the most radical voters in the state love about her and emphasizing everything that scares the
COVID-19: Fauci's Holocaust

I am usually a forgive-and-forget kind of guy.
When I was 18, a guy painting our house accidentally lost his grip on a can of paint, which then rolled off the roof and exploded on the hood of my already bedraggled, orange 1974 Gremlin X. No problem, it was an accident.
In 1990, a neighbor living above me in New York City left his water running in his tub to thaw a Thanksgiving turkey and took a nap. His tub overflowed, flooding his floor and eventually sending a chunk of wet tenement ceiling onto my 12-inch TV (I know, I'm bragging). No big deal, feces happens.
But nothing about COVID
Old and busted: Demanding ID for voting hurts the poor, women, and minorities! New hotness: Bring your ID if you expect to eat at Commie Basket!
For decades, the Left has insisted that asking for identification to access the ballot box was far too burdensome for its grievance collectives. Of late, the argument has been that black voters and women face particular burdens in getting accurate identification, the former because of the lingering effects of Jim Crow and the latter because of name changes due to marriage and divorce. Requiring ID to vote would disenfranchise these voters, Democrats insist, even though every poll shows majority support for voter-

Islamo-Marxist Abdul El-Sayed Beats So-Called
Moderate Haley Stevens in Michigan Senate Race 27 replies
Moderate Haley Stevens in Michigan Senate Race 27 replies
UPDATE: NBC has officially called the Michigan Senate race for far-left Democratic Socialist Abdul El-Sayed.
Islamo-Marxist Abdul El-Sayed appears on track to defeat the so-called moderate Democrat in the Michigan Democratic Primary for Senator.
Stevens was backed by Michigan Democratic Governor Gretchen Whitmer and Senator Chuck Schumer.
El-Sayed will now face former Rep. Mike Rogers, who ran unopposed in the GOP primary, in the November general election. El-Sayed has denied that he is a socialist, but he’s attended and spoken at at least six DSA events over the years, according to Fox.
“I’m not technically or practically DSA,” he claimed in an interview last month. “I am not somebody who is a socialist.
A Westchester County police bigwig and her ex-con hubbie chaperoned their gangbanger son to a botched hit on a rival in the Bronx – then she took over as the getaway driver, officials said Tuesday.
Mount Vernon Deputy Police Commissioner Jennifer Lackard, 49, and her husband James Lackard drove their 20-year-old son Chase Lackard to Concourse on June 29 at around 11:57 a.m. and helped him plan a brazen hit right outside the Bronx Criminal Court, according to police and court records.
Once there, the proud parents sat in the front of the family’s Chrysler Pacifica while their “Slutty Gang” member son opened fire with a semiautomatic out of the window
NBC News projected early Wednesday that Abdul El-Sayed defeated Rep. Haley Stevens (D-Mich.) in the state's Democrat senatorial primary. Our partner DDHQ has also just called the race. Establishment Democrats are freaking out right now. Bernie Sanders’ organization Our Revolution also declared victory in the race. "Last night, Michigan delivered one of the clearest messages of this election cycle: people power can beat big money,” Joseph Geevarghese, Executive Director of Our Revolution, said in a statement. “Abdul El-Sayed was outspent by nearly ten to one, facing the largest single-race AIPAC investment in history and tens of millions of dollars from billionaire-backed super PACs determined to buy this election.
New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s socialist dream of government-run grocery stores is off to a bad start. He’s already had to admit that customers will have to carry proof of residency to shop in them, that private companies — not the city — will run the stores, and that the first one won’t open for more than a year, and others not for three years.
But Mamdani’s likely to face an even bigger problem if no legitimate grocer wants to get into bed with him.
The “request for proposals” tacitly admits that his idea of government-run stores was stillborn, since he wants bids from private companies that have extensive experience

Donald Trump was President of the United States, and James Comey was his employee.
Comey was terrible at his job and was engaged in a massive conspiracy to slander and perhaps imprison the president, pushing conspiracy theories he knew to be false, leaking false information to the media through intermediaries, including information that was classified, and hence he broke the law.
President Trump fired him. Comey's allies in the FBI opened a criminal investigation into the president for exercising his constitutional duties as Chief Executive of the United States.
Just give poor people more money
11 replies
Socialists think poor people have too little money, and rich people have too much.
I happen to think the truth is somewhat the opposite. A big problem is that poor people in America have too much money despite their proven inability to manage it.
Poor people consume monster meals and quart-sized sodas at McDonalds, lease gas-guzzling trucks that are too big for the road, buy lousy food that is too much for them to eat, and get 100” TVs even though there’s nothing on.
But for purposes of the discussion, let’s accept the premise: Poor people have too little money.
The way things are going in America, with communism in the ascendancy, Iran knows it cannot prevail or even implement its jihad against America so long as Trump is in the White House. The plan, then, is to run out the clock until Trump is gone. Then, after the midterms, if Democrats win, they will attack a weakened America, the voters of which had the unfathomable chutzpah to install even more communists in Congress and governorships and courts.
America will be weaker the moment Trump leaves office. The left still plans to impeach him, and jihadists plan to destroy us.
The gangbanging son of a Westchester County police bigwig had a Bronx court date just minutes before he allegedly opened fire on a rival – with his cop mom and ex-con dad as getaway drivers, prosecutors said Wednesday. Chase Lackard, 20, faced a judge on a 2024 gun rap just 20 minutes before the alleged June 29 drive-by gang shooting – with help from his mom, disgraced Mount Vernon Deputy Police Commissioner Jennifer Lackard, and drug-dealing dad James Lackard, according to prosecutors.
Francesca Hong, the radical leftist running for governor of Wisconsin, has been in the news for the last two days over negative comments she once made about Thanksgiving being a symbol of colonialism and ‘the original superspreader.’
Well, the polling on that must have come in because now Hong is out there telling people that Thanksgiving is her favorite holiday and she totally means it, everyone.
These people have no shame. They will literally look you in the face and say whatever they think will open the doors of power for them.
They think no one remembers a thing.
Wednesday on CNN’s “OutFront,” Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) claimed Republicans would vote for Michigan Democratic Senate Candidate Abdul El-Sayed.
Jayapal said, “I’m struck by the fact that they have nothing positive to offer voters. All they can do is try to attach labels to Abdul El-Sayed after seeing a primary. That was a remarkable turnout from voters. I mean, 1.4 million votes, I believe, were cast in the Michigan primary; people are electrified and being on the ground with Abdul. I can tell you he is an electrifying candidate. He has really mobilized a whole group of voters who had given up
