As America goes through another paroxysm of Supreme Court mania since the death of Ruth Abortion Ginsburg, I though I’d advance a reform of the court I don’t think anyone else has devised: Make the court comprised of the chief justices of the 50 states. So the court would expand from nine to 50. And it would meet for one month every two years.
f you are looking for someone to blame for the riots that destroy American cities, you might start with President Eisenhower, and his cadre of smug Republicans, who were willing to violate constitutional law and common sense in order to promote policies that made them proud of themselves. Without their high-minded social reforms, the concept of reparations would be laughed out of court and off the continent.
I promised in my first talk to take up the question of immigration, which I regard as the most important of all. For almost 50 years your elected leaders have refused to enforce the laws regulating immigration, even though every poll ever taken shows that a majority want this done. There are now millions of people who have entered and continue to enter our country illegally—something that no civilized country has ever permitted.
In Les Visiteurs, one of my favorite movies of all time – I once showed it to Dr. Fleming, who said, after an astonished pause, that “this is the most reactionary film I’ve ever seen” – there is a moment when the hero, a medieval knight who has stumbled into the twentieth century, is being shown the Larousse encyclopedia entry on his illustrious family. “Who is this?” he asks about a descendant of his who lived in the eighteenth century. “Oh, he was a famous revolutionary.” And what does that mean, the knight persists. “He wanted to kill the king.”...
I see in the online news that the actress Diana Rigg, Dame Diana since 1994, died a couple of days ago at eighty-two. She became famous in America playing Emma Peel in 1965–67 in a British spy show called The Avengers.
My Fellow Americans, I promised you I would take up the six most serious problems confronting the survival of our country. In this fifth broadcast I am going to discuss what is undoubtedly the most sensitive subject of all.
I just accidentally ran across a FB post in which trans-gendering is justified by the claim that the word “man” once referred to humans of either sex and “she” was not invented until the 13th century. These people are wonderfully creative, almost as creative as the average priest or minister who lies his way through the Scriptures and the Creeds. I don’t suppose I have to point out to any of my readers that different languages express natural distinctions in a variety of ways. That distinctions of tense, for example, are in some Indo-European languages, no more significant than...
Disinformation, which we Russians lovingly nickname deza, differs from ordinary misinformation in that it is planted or spread knowingly, with malice aforethought and the intent to deceive. This looks good on paper, until a piece of fake news is actually before us and we start mulling it over, and then what is patently a case of carelessness or even of fraudulent intent may begin to take on the configurations of a gospel truth. That fake, after all, has not come out of nowhere. That fake is almost always a palimpsest of earlier fakes, and as one’s mind keeps burrowing deeper...
Finally. No more lies about police brutality and the legacy of slavery. Black Lives Matter goes on the record with its mission statement. BLM organizer Ariel Atkins, describing the looting in Chicago as ‘reparations,’ declared:
“I don’t care if someone decides to loot a Gucci or a Macy’s or a Nike store, because that makes sure that person eats, that makes sure that person has clothes.”
Prediction time: Trump will win on November 3 because he has supported our gun rights. Whereas the Democrats have not only continued to assault our Second Amendment “right to keep and bear arms,” but have allowed antifa/BLM rioters to burn down our cities.
