The United Kingdom has fallen. It’s a country where people are jailed for flipping off traffic cameras, where social media posts can also land you in prison, and where smoking is now banned for anyone born after January 1, 2009. That’s just the tip of the iceberg, and it makes one proud to be American that they are not part of this chaos. And HBO’s Bill Maher was not shy about discussing it either.

If globalism won’t stop killing citizens, citizens will be forced to kill globalism. Consider these recent news stories from Europe and North America: (1) Germany’s government is considering a new law that would allow its spy agency to investigate and block citizens from buying homes if the would-be owners hold political views that conflict with the government’s official policies. In effect, political dissent would disqualify a person from owning a home. (2) London Mayor Sadiq Khan is pushing for a government-run “disinformation unit” to investigate and silence online criticism of the mayor’s policies. (3) British police are doing more to...

An eco-warrior politician has sparked outrage in Denmark after she defended guidelines limiting residents of government-run nursing homes to just 2.8 ounces of beef a week — which is less than one Big Mac. Birgitte Kehler Holst of the left-wing green Danish party The Alternative was also accused of saying old people in nursing homes should be “punished” by restricting their meat intake in comments made in a meeting of Copenhagen’s City Council on April 30. She was speaking against plans to exclude nursing home residents from guidelines in the Danish capital that restrict meals at government-run sites to just...

A retired Baptist pastor was convicted Thursday of preaching near an abortion center, in an egregious case of violation of free speech rights. The pastor was convicted of breaching a so-called buffer zone outside an abortion clinic after he led a small open-air Sunday service preaching the Gospel near a Northern Ireland hospital that kills babies in abortions. Clive Johnston, 77, was found guilty in Coleraine Magistrates’ Court of violating Northern Ireland’s Safe Access Zones law and of failing to leave the area when directed by police. District Judge Peter King imposed a £450 fine. The conviction stems from a...

Liberals are getting their masks back out ... or maybe they still have them on because Covid killed us all and this is the afterlife, but we can't be sure it's the afterlife, so they're still wearing them to be safe. Here's the new trend in Libtardville now that hantavirus is trending. [Warning: Three F-bombs 1 minute in] She literally admitted that she's been wearing her mask since 2020.

During an exclusive interview with The Western Journal this week, Dr. Monique Yohanan said Americans have a right to question the country’s vaccine schedule and must learn to advocate for themselves in medical settings. Yohanan, who is director of the Center for Better Health at Independent Women, has an impeccable academic resume. She received her medical degree from the Dartmouth/Brown Program and a Master of Public Health from Johns Hopkins. She did her residency in internal medicine at Harvard and a fellowship in geriatrics at Stanford. In addition, Yohanan has held faculty appointments while maintaining active licensure and board certification...

Nurseries in Wales have been instructed to report incidents of toddlers engaging in “racist” behaviour to the police in accordance to taxpayer-funded guidelines backed by the Welsh Labour-run British government. The guidelines are reported to contain a extensive list of instructions for childcare workers to respond to “racist incidents” involving babies, toddlers, and children bellow the age of 12 and assess if an event would constitute a “hate crime” before reporting the case to the British police. It is stated the instructions’ ultimate goals is to turn childcare centres into “anti-racist” environments in accordance to a series of woke initiatives...

A sweeping new bill in New York would force major retailers and manufacturers to cut down on plastic packaging used for everyday staples including toilet paper, paper towels and diapers. The rules would apply to large companies with sales above $5 million that sell or distribute covered products in New York, hitting giants including Walmart, Target and Kroger. Under the proposal, manufacturers would have to reduce non-reusable or non-environmentally friendly packaging by 10 percent within three years and by 30 percent within 12 years. The bill also sets long-term targets for packaging to become reusable, refillable or recyclable, with deadlines...

Small government has been a staple of American politics for decades, but that staple is finally coming loose among younger generations like Gen Z. Why? Why are Generation Z, Millennials and others REJECTING small government? This isn't just about Gen-Z being "far right," generation-z is seeking political change in the face of instability - a return toward order, tradition, security, and real power.

The police just came to my office and confiscated all my firearms. Just happened.

What started out as a plan for a common market evolved has matured into a central planner’s paradise with all the associated problems that once gripped the Soviet Union. The European Union is essentially the project of a bureaucratic elite, and is undemocratic at its core. It was designed, from its inception, to wrest power from the democratic institutions of individual European members and vest it within the EU bureaucracy. In recent decades, it has taken on a hideous form with the embrace of climate eschatology and destruction of industry in the name of net-zero. Even worse, it has promoted...

Spain's Pedro Sanchez and Brazil's Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva will spearhead gatherings of the global left in Barcelona on Friday and Saturday, in a bid to defend multilateralism and mobilise left-wing movements against the far right. The meetings, organised by Spain and left-wing political networks, come as U.S. President Donald Trump's swift cuts to humanitarian aid, military interventions and threats to abandon NATO have shaken the status quo of international relations and prompted a rethink of global allegiances. Borne out of a wake-up call for European socialists after the far-right surge in EU elections in 2024, the aim of...

Meanwhile, foreign Islamists meeting “residency” requirements receive taxpayer assistance. Andreas Wailzer at LifeSite News reports that the German government, through the Ministry of Construction, has just proposed a new bill that “would give municipalities the right of first refusal if a potential buyer of property has ‘anti-constitutional aspirations.’” But those with “anti-constitutional aspirations” aren’t to be confused with the third-world foreigners and hordes of Islamists who have decidedly not integrated and accepted the German constitution and government as authoritative, instead bringing sharia culture, customs, and pseudo-law to Germany and making no pretenses of hiding their intentions—this is specifically in regards...

The state of New York would now like to require these sisters to assign patient rooms by gender identity rather than biological sex, grant access to opposite-sex bathrooms, use preferred pronouns, undergo state-mandated training in gender ideology, and post notices of compliance with the progressive vision of human nature — or risk fines, loss of their license, and up to one year in prison.

Hungary’s Prime Minister Viktor Orbán speaks during a press conference next to President of the European Council António Costa (C) and President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen (R) following the European Council meeting at the EU headquarters in Brussels on December 19, 2024. “What bothers Brussels is not just that Hungary stands out, but that this alternative could become popular among a majority of Europeans over time.” Zoltán Kiszelly is a Hungarian political analyst currently serving as Director of the Center for Political Analysis at the Budapest-based Századvég Foundation. We talked to him about the Hungarian elections...

nti-liberty/gun cracktivists find themselves stuck on recycling old, failed narratives because there is really nothing new in the distortions and lies they tell in trying to obliterate the Second Amendment. Among those failed narratives is microstamping, a nonsensical measure about which I last wrote in Microstamping And Zombies, 2024 in June of 2024 at my home blog. Microstamping is laser engraving a unique, identifying code on the tips of firing pins which will “stamp” that code—letters, numbers, etc—on the primers of fired cases. Some microstamping schemes also demand a second stamp elsewhere on a fired case. California has always been...

The city of San Francisco slapped a longtime property owner with a $50,000 fine for trimming the trees right outside his home.

SNIP Just as globalists in the United States, Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom, and across Old (and increasingly Islamic) Europe turned the “Reign of COVID Terror” into an opportunity to bilk taxpayers, enrich elites, and grow the totalitarian national security State, the same globalist scum quickly turned the Ukraine conflict into another “emergency” requiring more taxes, censorship, and public sacrifice. All of a sudden, anything criticizing the official public policies of Western governments was labeled “Russian disinformation.” If you disagreed with whatever the West’s vaunted “experts” said, you were dismissed as “Putin’s puppet.” Pro tip for information warfare enthusiasts: When...
