John Cleese – of Monty Python fame – has come out very strongly in favor of Restore Britain: the new British political party which is committed to expelling the migrants. Cleese has been a life-long Lefty. Probably still is, at least for the most part. But he recognizes (and perhaps too late) that if there is to be a Britain which allows a John Cleese to thrive, it can’t be a Britain overrun with migrants. That to try to absorb millions of foreigners who despise the local culture is impossible – they must be forced out or they will take over. There is no middle ground here.

To be sure, there could have been. If the British government had carefully vetted the migrants, limited their numbers and insisted they be educated, wealthy and not tied to Islamist ideology, Britain could have taken in quite a lot of Muslims without any great difficulty. What Britain did – what all of Europe has done – is take in the least acceptable Muslims. Ignorant, backwards, bigoted people entirely enthralled to Islamist ideology. By doing this, the British Ruling Class – the European Ruling Class – has made it a zero-sum game: all or nothing. One side or the other must be destroyed.

Right now, I rate it heavily in the Islamist’s favor. Every European institution is entirely captured by them and the European population in sunk into sloth and cowardice. But it wouldn’t take much. As has been famously said, only 3% – if it is really determined – is necessary. In Europe, I drop that to 1% because the military and police forces of Europe are pathetic and nobody is really going to fight hard to keep the current system. The bigger fight would be between the patriots and the invaders – but turning out the British government, itself, would only take about 10,000 determined British patriots marching on London. And maybe someone like Cleese coming out in favor of Britain will start the ball rolling? I hope it does. I’d hate to see European civilization end.

Fauci took the fifth quite a lot – not quite as much as Vito Genovese, but right up there. Oddly, he’s been granted a pardon…which means he really can’t take the fifth; he’s not in danger of jail no matter what he says about the time period covered (which goes back to 2014). This refusal to answer is contempt of Congress, an actual crime. We’ll see if the Congress has the guts to refer him…but even there, the hearing was held in DC, which means we’d have to try him in DC and no DC jury is going to convict Fauci. Should have had a special session of the committee in Florida. That said, Fauci utterly destroyed himself. Probably most people hadn’t known he had been pardoned…and why not answer questions about what you did? He’s the great scientist, right? What’s to hide? The Mrs is still not very political and she, watching the hearing, came to loath Fauci. Wanted to smack him kind of loathing. This matters – it is important in and of itself; it is people at last losing respect for the Ruling Class. That is really what destroys them.

Francesca Hong is the likely Democrat nominee for governor of Wisconsin and she’s completely insane. Seriously holding to the “police cause crime” Democrat Socialist line. She’s not remotely alone nor nearly the most insane Democrat rising in 2026. Trump and the GOP will mercilessly point this out all through to November.

Iran took a shot at a US base and word now is that Trump has ordered the gloves taken off. We’ll see how that plays out.

It is pretty certain that if there’s a small, urban market that takes EBT, it is just a front for welfare fraud.
