“There are two senses in contemporary usage. One is a self-conscious intellectual movement of the right that believes that liberalism, as a philosophy of economic and moral individualism, is corrosive to both personal and collective well-being and should be replaced with a vision of the ‘common good,’ usually defined through a synthesis of conservative Catholic social teaching and nationalism. The other sense describes the general turn on both the left and right away from the liberal consensus of the late 20th and early 21st centuries — often called neoliberalism by its critics — towards other traditions like Marxism or the aforementioned Catholic Integralism. The implication in both usages is that liberalism is not merely being opposed, but transcended in some way: the good things in liberalism, like pluralism and toleration, would be preserved, while the bad stuff, like alienation and class stratification, would be eliminated. It sounds nice. And that’s the problem: It’s essentially a euphemism.” (12/02/25)

“Ryan was celestial on the mound. He won 324 games – seven of them no-hitters. (Four of those were with the Angels.) That means opponents did not get a hit in two out of every hundred games he won. No wonder he ascended into baseball heaven, inducted into the Hall of Fame with the third-highest vote percentage ever. Unbelievably, Angelenos who try to get permission to exercise their Second Amendment rights face even longer odds than did Ryan in getting a no-hit win. As a lawsuit by the federal government details, just one in 2,000 concealed-carry permit applicants wins the legally required seal of approval from the LA County Sheriff’s Department.” (12/02/25)

“The massive Somali-orchestrated welfare fraud in Minnesota grew so big, even The New York Times had to cover it. The takeaways are delicious: an indictment of sloppy Democrat-run Big Government, a repudiation of immigration policies that favor groups that decline to assimilate and that in some cases embrace anti-U.S. sentiment and exposing Governor Tim Walz for the lightweight he is. Over several years, a cabal of (mostly) Somali refugees in Minnesota pulled off a giant heist of the state’s funds, embarrassing Democrat officials and highlighting once again the fraud that permeates our welfare programs. It was a theft so mammoth that hundreds of employees of the Minnesota Department of Human Services wrote anonymously on X that Walz, who served as Vice President Kamala Harris'[s] running mate in 2024, ‘has failed Minnesota’ and added, ‘Tim Walz is 100% responsible for massive fraud in Minnesota.'” (12/02/25)

“Getting rid of jury trials. Slapping us all with a digital ID. Presiding over a carnival of speech arrests. I’m starting to think the Guardianistas are right – that our current crop of politicians are indeed sending us down the slippery slope towards authoritarianism. Only it isn’t the ‘populists’ or the ‘right-wingers’ sluicing the flume, but their beloved bloody Labour Party. I don’t know what’s worse about justice secretary David Lammy’s jury ‘reforms’ – that they will further curtail trial by jury, a right that stems from Magna Carta, or his spreadsheet-driven justifications for doing so. Forget about 1215 and Runnymede, we need to maybe trim the court backlog a bit. Our ancient liberties mean nothing to the technocrat with a target to hit.” (12/02/25)

“Last week, the Washington Post reported that [US Secretary of Defense Pete] Hegseth gave a verbal order to leave no survivors in the first strike of the DOD’s campaign against drug smuggling boats, which took place in the Caribbean on September 2. Several minutes after striking the boat for the first time, the Special Operations commander overseeing the attack ordered a second strike to kill two men hanging on to the burning remains of the boat in order to comply with Hegseth’s order, according to the Post. … That Hegseth would give such an order that could potentially constitute a war crime should come as no surprise. Hegseth has a long history of expressing contempt for the Geneva Conventions and the legal rules of engagement.” (12/02/25)
