Here are two contrasting stories the BBC and C4 News won’t be mentioning.
Amazon abandoning New York
Amazon had been looking for a location for a second HQ and had been in discussions with several US cities to see which would offer the best deal. The Amazon HQ would have brought about 25,000 new jobs and billions in tax revenues. The Democrats, who run New York, put together a package offering Amazon about $3bn in tax cuts. So Amazon chose New York.
Then along came Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) – the new leftist firebrand elected to Congress by the snowflake, #metoo, tear-down-the-borders, we’re-all-victims-of-white-supremacist-males idiots pouring out of universities with their worthless degrees in Gender Studies and Media Studies and suchlike.
AOC terrifies the Democratic leadership due to her popularity with the brain-dead, libtard, snowflake masses and whenever she says ‘jump’, they ask ‘how high?‘ She recently published her New Green Deal for America which would destroy so much of American industry that it would make the useless Ed Miliband’s absurd Climate Change Act look like a teddy bears’ picnic. But, in spite of the moronic stupidity of the Green Deal, many senior Democrats quickly endorsed it. Opposing AOC would have been bad for their careers.
People like AOC loathe Amazon as Amazon’s labour force is not unonised. So, AOC was a leader of a vociferous campaign to block Amazon’s New York HQ. Showing a Corbynite grasp of economics, one of AOC’s key themes was that instead of ‘giving’ Amazon $3bn, New York City should be spending that money on teachers and homes etc. In claiming this, AOC showed a typical socialist’s understanding of economics – she thought the $3bn existed when actually it was a tax break meaning that over about 20 years, Amazon’s new HQ would bring in about $24bn in tax revenues to New York City rather than the $27bn or so if the tax break hadn’t been offered. But, as AOC has said in her defence, being morally right is more important than being factually correct.
Anyway, the end result was that Amazon dropped its New York City plans and decided to build its new HQ in Tennessee. Amazon will not be building a headquarters in New York City, according to a statement released by the company on Thursday which noted that “a number of state and local politicians have made it clear that they oppose our presence.”
AOC was delighted with her supposed ‘victory’: “Anything is possible,” she tweeted in response to Amazon’s decision. “Today was the day a group of dedicated, everyday New Yorkers & their neighbors defeated Amazon’s corporate greed, its worker exploitation, and the power of the richest man in the world.”
Not everyone was as pleased as AOC with her ‘victory’ over Amazon. An organisation called the Job Creators Network put up a billboard criticising AOC’s campaign:
A socialist disaster story that the BBC and C4 News and most of the UK mainstream media will definitely ignore.
More ‘victories’ like this and AOC will soon be able to turn New York into a US version of Venezuela:
Detroit factory to re-open
Now for something completely different.
For decades Detroit – once the car manufacturing capital of the world – has been a horror story of urban decay and rising crime as car factories shut and there were no jobs to replace those lost. But now we hear that Fiat-Chrysler is to re-open a car plant mothballed years ago creating thousands of new jobs.
I wanted to write about the rise in socialism in the USA and how one new US left-wing New York member of Congress managed to run a campaign which made Amazon give up their decision to start a new HQ in New York which would have created 25,000 new jobs and over $20bn in tax revenues. The stupid woman then claimed that her campaign to prevent Amazon creating these jobs was a victory for ordinary people against the richest man in the world.
I’d also like to write about the lies and dishonesty of our MPs. By preventing Theresa May from doing a no-deal Brexit, they’re deliberately taking away her last negotiating card. Now the EU has no need to offer any concessions. Instead the EU will make May push ahead with a plan which will be rejected by Parliament as it would make Britain a vassal state to the EU in perpetuity. This would be unacceptable to the members of the ERG. Once May has lost this vote, the EU will try to push Britain to a second referendum in the expectation that people will be so tired of the whole debacle that abstentions by Brexiteers will allow the Remoaners to win.
So much for our MPs’ promises that they would abide by the results of the 2016 referendum!
Unfortunately, I have to rush and haven’t the time.
So, instead, here’s Douglas Murray giving an excellent 5 minute summary of his book The Strange Death of Europe.
In this video Murray explains why our rulers have decided to hand over our continent to an invading army of people with much lower IQs than us and from inferior cultures who will destroy European civilisation turning our countries into the sh*t-holes these people have come from. Then Murray asks whether European citizens will accept the deliberate destruction of their way of life:
When I was younger, people got status and reputation from what they achieved in their lives. Now that all seems to have changed. In today’s crybaby, snowflake culture, status is achieved by how much one can claim be a victim. If you’re black, you’re clearly a victim of racism.
If you’re homosexual you’re a victim of homophobia and heteronormativism. If you’re a preening, transgender narcissist, you’re clearly a victim of transphobia. Moozerlums are always victims of Izlumophobia. And so it goes on.
Jussie Smollet’s torment
That brings us to Empire actor Jussie Smollett. No, I’d never heard of Empire nor Jussie Smollet. But following Mr Smollet’s latest escapade, he’s become rather famous. Jussie Smollet is lucky. He’s both black and homosexual. This gives him two cards in the race to be more of a victim than anyone else.
You probably know the Smollet story by now, so I’ll just recap very briefly.
Being black and homosexual clearly wasn’t enough for Mr Smollet, so he reported that he had been subject of a racist and homophobic attack by two white men wearing balaclavas who poured a corrossive substance on him and put a rope round his neck (I suppose to remind him of KKK lynchings) while shouting something about people like him not being welcome in a MAGA (Make America Great Again) area. During a tearful appearance on Good Morning America, he claimed he had been “forever changed” by the incident.
Here are the two supposedly ‘white Trump MAGA supporters’ who supposedly attacked Mr Smollet:
Ooops. They’re not white Trump supporters. They’re two brothers, who are bodybuilders and aspiring actors, who have claimed they were paid $3,500 to stage an attack on Smollett. Abimbola “Abel” and Olabinjo “Ola” Osundairo, who were earlier deemed suspects, have now testified before a grand jury. Smollet was reportedly so dumb that he used his own cheque to pay his ‘attackers’. Yup, despite getting about $100,000 per episode for Empire, dumb Jussie didn’t think of giving his ‘attackers’ untraceable cash.
The 36-year-old Smollet, who came out as gay in 2015, has been charged with making a false police report and disorderly conduct and is expected to appear in court later today. Here is his picture from the Chicago Police:
The charge carries a sentence of up to three years in prison and Smollett could be forced to pay for the cost of the investigation.
One of the men had appeared in Empire, police said, and one of them was Smollett’s personal trainer, who had helped the actor as he prepared to appear in a music video.
Detectives were unable to find CCTV footage of the alleged attack, which Smollett said happened in central Chicago on 29 January as he was walking home from a Subway sandwich shop.
Time to play the Victim Card?
So, how will Smollett get out of this mess? I suspect he’ll try to play the Victim Card.
Already his lawyers seem to be suggesting that due to the publicity, Smollet can’t get a fair trial. Smollet’s lawyers Todd Pugh and Victor Henderson said Smollett “enjoys the presumption of innocence, particularly when there has been an investigation like this one where information, both true and false, has been repeatedly leaked”. This slightly overlooks the fact that Smollet was busy touring the TV studios giving false information to get publicity for the ‘life-changing’ attack long before doubts about his story started to emerge.
Then, of course, being both black and gay, Smollet can claim he has constantly been victimised throughout his life. Though someone claiming to be a victim who is earning about $100,000 per episode of a crap TV series slightly strains credibility.
Perhaps Smollet will claim he has been suffering emotional stress? Or perhaps he’ll try the ‘I was abused as a child’ routine?
Or maybe he’ll go full hog and claim he only did this to highlight the hate and violence that have supposedly increased in America since Trump became president?
Who knows? Only one thing is certain – being a lefty, progressive, libtard, Hollywood luvvie who is both black and gay, Smollet will get kid-gloves treatment from the Trump-hating US press and probably emerge as some kind of victimised hero rather than the worthless lying scumbag some of us might believe him to be.
First here’s a picture of the EU’s great leader taken during his latest meeting with our hopeless Theresa May:
As you’ll see – the Drunk is plastered as usual. It must be difficult shaving when you’re pissed as a newt most of the time. Though some people might think it’s a pity it was only his cheek he cut and not his throat.
And this is the man Adolf Merkel appointed to run her Fourth Reich!
Dumb enricher threatens to leave Holland
No time to write the blog I wanted to today about the great American actor Jussie Smollett (no I’d never heard of him before his latest caper) from the programme “Empire” (nope, I’d never heard of that either).
So, instead here’s a link to a jolly little video from Holland. In it we see a multi-cultural enricher getting more than slightly bothered when police tow away his car which was parked in a temporary bus stop,
The enricher does the usual stuff – calls the police “racists” and “Hitler” and threatens to kill them. But the best bit of the video is when he threatens to de-register – give up his Dutch nationality and leave Holland.
Um…..what to say?
Of course, the gentleman may be a highly-trained neurosurgeon or an astrophysicist and thus a huge benefit to Dutch society.
But I suspect the only contribution he has made is producing a few score mini-Jihadis with his several wives and the stupendous amount he is thus claiming in benefits.
Multi-cultural enrichers have never been famed for their grasp of logic.
There’s an organisation in the US called The Gatestone Institute which publishes quite a lot of articles about the many wonderful benefits we useless Westerners, who have contributed so little to human technical, scientific, medical and artistic advancement, are getting from the millions of fine people being imported from countries in Africa, the Middle East and places like Crapistan which have all contributed so much to human technical, scientific, medical and artistic advancement.
One of the articles they publish is called “A month of multi-culturalism in (country name)”. They’ve done several on Britain, Sweden, France etc. In these articles, the writer gives a day by day listing of the main contributions to that country by the multi-cultural enrichers. January’s article was “A month of multi-culturalism in Germany“.
It must be quite difficult researching these articles as the German media (like the British and Swedish media) are quite coy about reporting what really happened when multi-cultural enrichers are involved. For example, in one of the incidents (on January 27), three German boys got into an argument with a gang from an enricher background. The German boys must have somehow insulted the gang’s honour as the gang threw the three German boys in the track of an oncoming train. Two of the boys were killed and one escaped with minor injuries. Most of the German mainstream media reported this as a “tragedy” and that the boys “fell” in front of the oncoming train. The fact that they were thrown in the path of the train by a group with a migrant background was carefully omitted.
The Gatestone article makes grim reading. Whenever the German police try to arrest an enricher, a mob forms and the police have to retreat. On the extremely rare occasion the Germans actually deport someone, the country refuses to take them and so they’re flown back to Germany.
It would be farcical if it wasn’t so tragic!
The unwritten agreements that make society work
Western society only functions due to unwritten agreements between the people and the state. Most people accept they should work to look after their families and pay taxes in return for schools, hospitals, roads etc and in return for the state looking after them should they fall ill or when they get old. Similarly, most people accept laws and the police as they know that without them there would be chaos.
But what we now have is a large and ever-growing group of people from the Third World who don’t accept these unwritten agreements. They don’t see why they should work when indigenous Europeans are prepared to work and pay taxes to support them. And they don’t respect our laws and police because for them criminality is a preferred way of life.
And the only way our rulers can deal with the increasing mayhem and murder caused by these people is to censor the media and persecute anyone who dares mention the increasing catastrophe our rulers’ uncontrolled immigration is causing
A month of mayhem and murder
Anyway, here it is – a month of multi-cultural enrichment in Germany.
Read it and weep for what our rulers are doing to our once great continent:
I know the Religion of Peace is a religion of peace. You know the Religion of Peace is a religion of peace. Our progressive, open-minded, libtard rulers keep telling us the Religion of Peace is a religion of peace:
This is in spite of the fact that there have been more than 34,600 religiously-inspired terrorist attacks in over 60 countries since 9/11.
Also our rulers keep telling us that Islamism has nothing to do with Islam which is a moderate religion promoting peace and tolerance. But strangely, many of those who lecture us about this greatest of religions, know an awful lot less about it than those who practice and lead it:
While we’re quoting Turkish leaders, I recently (4 minutes ago) came across this quote which is attributed to Kemal Attaturk – the founder of the secular Turkish state:
“Depuis plus de 500 ans, les règles et les théories d’un vieux sheikh arabe, et les interprétations abusives de générations de prêtres crasseux et ignares ont fixé, en Turquie, tous les détails de la loi civile et criminelle. Elles ont réglé la forme de la constitution, les moindres faits et gestes de la vie de chaque citoyen, sa nourriture, ses heures de veille et de sommeil, la coupe de ses vêtements, ce qu’il apprend à l’école, ses coutumes, ses habitudes et jusqu’à ses pensées les plus intimes. L’islam, cette théologie absurde d’un bédouin immoral, est un cadavre putréfié qui empoisonne nos vies.”
(Translation:
“For more than 500 years, the rules and theories of an old Arab sheikh, and the abusive interpretations of generations of filthy and ignorant priests, have set in Turkey all the details of civil and criminal law. They have regulated the form of the constitution, the smallest acts and gestures of every citizen’s life, his food, his hours of waking and sleeping, what he learns at school, his customs, his habits and until to his most intimate thoughts. Islam, this absurd theology of an immoral Bedouin, is a rotten corpse that poisons our lives.“)
He seems to have had fairly strong views about the role of religion in holding back his country’s development. This is presumably why he deliberately set out to separate the state from religion – a policy which is being rapidly undone by the current leader.
No doubt, if Mr Attaturk (the founder of modern Turkey) were alive today, the BBC and C4 News would be calling him an “Izlumophobe” and the usual big-mouthed, progressive, braindead, lefty idiots would be demanding he be prosecuted for supposed ‘hate speech’
Anyway, here for your enlightenment and education is yet another Islamic expert who appears not to understand the peaceful nature of his great religion. In this brief clip, an Islamic researcher suggests that they should erect a statue to Hitler because of what he did to the Jews. Silly man, doesn’t he realise that the Religion of Peace is a religion of peace? I wonder why the BBC and C4 News hasn’t reported his anti-semitism? Is it because deep down they agree with him?
I don’t have any stories today, so here are a few excruciating examples of the absurd behaviour of the useless drunk who currently rules over about 500 million Europeans.
Sometimes, I feel a bit sorry for the lying, treacherous hopeless May. After all, how can you negotiate anything with a useless drunk like Juncker? And then there’s the added difficulty that Juncker is just an impotent puppet of Germany as the EU is really run by European Commission Secretary-General Martin Selmayr whose grandfather was a high-ranking Nazi officer deeply involved in the slaughter of about 20 million Russians.
Then there are further complications. Most of May’s supposed ‘negotiating team’ want to fail so they can keep Britain in the EU. That’s why they tricked May into signing up for the ghastly Irish Backstop which effectively keeps Britain as a vassal state to the EU in perpetuity. But this great plan by the UK-hating British civil servants and Eurocrats like Selmayr, Tusk and Verhofstadt may be backfiring as it has been rejected by the UK Parliament. But having backed May into a corner with the Irish Backstop, the Eurocrats have also backed themselves into a corner and cannot give ground without losing face.
Moreover, our UK-loathing Remoaner MPs are trying to undermine May’s pitifully limited negotiating position by excluding the possibility of a No-deal Brexit.
What a mess!
And there’s a final complication. The Eurocrats don’t care if a No-deal Brexit results in thousands or even tens of thousands of job losses across the EU. Their only concern is preserving their own jobs and privileges and forever expanding their great EU superstate’s power and control.
Anyway, to brighten up our Monday, here’s the man that 27 EU leaders thought was a fit person to rule over about 500 million Europeans.
Look in particular at how he treats women. If Trump had done anything remotely like Juncker, millions of howling, mouth-frothing, pussy-hat-wearing lefties would be demanding his removal. But when a worthless, drunkard, globalist puppet like Juncker sexually denigrates women, nobody says anything and our mainstream media don’t even mention the incidents.
First I’d like to thank a reader for doing a little background research on the (IMHO) foul-mouthed, anti-semitic, ignorant, US-hating new congresswoman Ilhan Omar whom I featured in Friday’s blog.
She’s a Somali who the USA granted citizenship to when she was 14 and her family appealed for that privilege as refugees. And this is the thanks they (the US) got. She clearly got elected because so many Somali refugees gathered in the area of Minneapolis she represents, that it’s now called ‘little Mogadishu.’ Some detestable cynics claim the main activity in that area is crime, that the Somalis take to like ducks to water. It doesn’t take long to find items like this regarding their conduct: “They came to the U.S. as supposed ’refugees,’ but now it has been discovered that a number of Somali immigrants are stealing hundreds of millions in American welfare money that they are literally shipping back to Africa stuffed in suitcases. Worse, the cash is going to fund the various Islamist terror armies there.”
I have written previously about the fabulous contribution Somalis have made to our once great country. So, I’ll not go any further into this particular subject in this blog.
Is Salvini the Saviour of Europe?
In English, the Italian verb ‘salvare’ means to ‘save’.
In this short video clip, someone in the crowd where Italian Interior Minister Matteo Salvini is giving a speech calls him a “shitty murderer” for preventing boats full of migrants landing in Italy. In response, Salvini says: “A round of applause for the gentleman who has won 10 illegal (Muslim) migrants. Give your first name, family name, fiscal code, and we will send you 20 migrants and you get to take care of them and feed them everyday.”
Along with a few East European leaders, Salvini is one of the few political leaders who dares stand up for European values and European culture against the Soros-backed globalists who want to destroy Europe by flooding our continent with often illiterate, often-uneducated, often unemployable, often violent, often criminal, Third-World garbage:
And who want to replace elected country governments with unelected, bureaucratic supra-national bodies like the corrupt, wasteful EU and the even more corrupt, wasteful UN.
Unfortunately Italy is rapidly going bankrupt as, being in Euro area, it is unable to devalue its currency to make its products more competitive. So the globalists – Merkel and Macron – will probably use Italy’s dire financial situation to destroy the Italian government and replace it with EU puppets who will do as the globalists demand.
Anyway, here’s Salvini fighting to save Italy and Europe from the Third-World invasion:
In the video newly elected member of Congress Ilhan Omar engaged in a nasty exchange with special envoy to Venezuela Elliott Abrams, accusing the diplomat of being a liar and pressing him on his involvement in the Iran-Contra affair and killings in Central America during the Reagan administration. She also appears to be accusing him of supporting genocide.
Abrams was named the special envoy to Venezuela last month, shortly after the Trump administration recognized opposition leader Juan Guaidó as the country’s legitimate president. The move came as part of an increasing effort to pressure embattled President Nicolás Maduro amid an economic and humanitarian crisis in Venezuela.
Wednesday’s contentious exchange was the latest high-profile moment for Omar, in what she has just this week, come under bipartisan scrutiny after issuing multiple tweets on Sunday that were condemned as anti-Semitic.
Abrams is a highly educated and very experienced diplomat who has served in a variety of foreign policy positions for several U.S. Presidents. He received his B.A. from Harvard College, a Masters degree in international relations from the London School of Economics, and his J.D. from Harvard Law School. During George W. Bush’s first term in office, Abrams was appointed as Special Assistant to the President and Senior Director on the National Security Council for Near East and North African Affairs. In Bush’s second term, he was given the job of deputy national security adviser. Abrams first came to national prominence in the Reagan administration in the 1980s, where he was Assistant Secretary of State for Human Rights, and later Assistant Secretary for Inter-American Affairs. He is currently a senior fellow for Middle Eastern studies at the Council on Foreign Relations. On January 25, 2019, he was appointed by President Trump as Special Envoy on Venezuela.
I’m not sure what qualifications and experience (if any) Ms Omar has to her name.
It’s interesting how Abrams reacts with calm and dignity while the (IMHO) repulsive Ilhan Omar spews out her loathing of the US. She is meant to be using her time to question Abrams on behalf of American voters. Instead she just uses it to insult him
Ilhan Omar seems to be typical of the violently anti-American, anti-white and anti-semitic garbage that the historically-ignorant, virtue-signalling, libtard snowflake generation have elected into the US Government. And, as far as I understand, Ms Omar has called for funding for the US Department of Homeland Security and ICE (Immigration and Customs Control) to be drastically cut. I think we can imagine why she would do that?
In my most recent blog, I featured a learned cleric from our most loveliest religion explaining that non-believers had four choices – convert, be oppressed, be enslaved or be killed. I even suggested that this cleric, who had probably studied the Koran for more than forty years, possibly knew more about his religion than British libtards desperately trying to come up with such a broad definition of Izlumophobia that free speech would be impossible.
I must apologise if this gave the impression that it was only worse than pigs and apes unbelievers who were targets for a bit of a bashing from the world’s most peacefullest religion.
For hundreds of years, a schism in Christianity left Catholics and Protestants torturing and murdering each other in quite a variety of unpleasant ways. Similarly a schism between Sunnis and Shiites has led to members of the peacefullest most tolerantest religion also slaughtering each other in fairly high numbers.
Just to illustrate, here’s a ‘heartwarming’ story from Sunni Saudi Arabia.
This is 6-year-old Zakaria Al-Jaber
Or at least this was Zakaria Al-Jaber. I imagine he doesn’t look quite the same since he was beheaded by a Sunni taxi driver.
Multiple sources provide conflicting reports regarding the details of the boy’s murder, but all are consistent in the claim that the child was beheaded using broken glass in front of his mother.
According to Shia Rights Watch, Zakaria Al-Jaber and his mother had taken a taxi to a shrine in Medina, and when they arrived an “unknown man approached them” and asked if they were Shiite Muslims.
The mother reportedly said “yes”.
Activists report that minutes after this conversation a car stopped by the woman and pulled the child away from her and attacked him with a broken piece of glass. Witnesses report that Zakaria Al-Jaber was beheaded from behind as mother watched and screamed.
Shia Rights Watch claims that no bystanders intervened. Whether this was because they were afraid of being hurt, were filming the beheading on their mobile phones or were quite pleased to see a Shiite getting murdered is not clear.
According “sources close to the family,” the perpetrator was the taxi driver who stopped the car and “forced the boy out near a coffee shop in the Al-Tilal neighborhood.” The driver then allegedly smashed a glass bottle to obtain a shard of glass, which he then used to slash the boy’s throat, and stab him.
The traumatized mother is said to have tried to stop the driver from attacking the boy but fainted.
Clearly the Saudi authorities have been learning from European leaders as they quickly issued a statement declaring that the boy’s murderer had ‘mental health issues’. Therefore, as the murderer had these ‘mental health issues’, the beheading obviously had nothing to do with any religion.
These ‘mental health issues’ really seem to be occurring ever more frequently in ever more countries.
