"As Good As I Once Was" (opens in separate window)

remember the names

saturday, august 29th, 2026

An eerie quiet masks the panic rising among the many players in the long-running train of crimes carried out under color-of-law against the people of the this country that goes roughly under the clunky name of The Grand Conspiracy. What is Joe DiGenova up to, exactly, in the Southern District of Florida, with its several grand juries grinding away? Indictments will fly, for sure, but then who will flip on whom? It won’t take a whole lot of flippers to seal many fates in this skein of sedition and treason. The tension must be terrible for them.

The question has long been: how do you even begin to organize a set of coherent cases around this roaring avalanche of nefarious acts that got bigger with each successive attempt at cover-up? Let’s see if we can block out a panoramic picture of potential prosecutions. The gigantic mess must be separated into packets. It’s probably best to begin with the FBI’s “Midyear Exam” op of 2016 — the investigation into Hillary Clinton’s private email server. You can bet that the server contained evidence of HRC’s two seminal crimes that kicked things off: 1) the transfer of US military technology to Russia’s Skolkovo high-tech hub and payments from seventeen companies involved coincidentally received by the Clinton Foundation when she was Sec’y of State; and 2) the “Uranium One” deal transferring US-owned nuke material to Russia (via Canada) that required a State Dept signoff by HRC — coincident with husband Bill receiving a half-million dollar “lecture fee” from a Russian bank. Players involved in Midyear Exam: Comey, Strzok, McCabe, Page, then-AG Loretta Lynch.

That potential embarrassment of this sketchy business was simply squashed by Lynch and Comey, while HRC took care to physically destroy the server and devices linked to it. But it also prompted the creation of the Russian collusion prank against then-candidate Donald Trump, (“Crossfire Hurricane”) to distract attention from all that. . . which turned into the huge RussiaGate operation that marshaled the FBI, the CIA, the Senate Intel Committee, and offices deep in the Pentagon to put over a gigantic hoax. It was green-lighted by President Barack Obama and organized by CIA-Director John Brennan, with FBI Director Comey and DNI James Clapper. Supporting players (potential defendants) include Susan Rice, Sally Yates, Veep Joe Biden (or “Joe Biden”), then White House aide Lisa Monaco, and CIA agent Eric Ciaramella (who wrote the actual Intel Community Assessment that jump-started the op). McCabe, Stzrok, Page, Ohr (and wife, Nellie), Rosenstein, and many FBI agents are potential defendants. Also Gina Haspel, CIA London station chief, who coordinated with the UK’s MI6 agent, Christopher Steele of the Steele Dossier. Throw in DOD-sponsored spook Stefan Halper and FBI liaison in London, Alan Kohler. After May, 2017, Christopher Wray was responsible for all FBI mischief and FISA Court irregularities (along with FISA Judge James Boasberg).

The Mueller Investigation was a subset of RussiaGate, but deserves its own case packet. It was an attempt to legitimize the RussiaGate hoax, and to keep the news media fed with innuendo. In effect it was a hoax unto itself, consumed $32-million, and ran nearly two years. It produced exactly nothing in evidence that President Trump had “colluded” with Russia about anything. Since Robert Mueller was mentally incapacitated, the investigation was run by subordinates, Aaron Zebley, Andrew Weissmann, attorneys Jeanie Rhee, Elizabeth Prelogar, Brandon Van Grack and others. It was a fraud on the public and probably an obstruction of justice.

Impeachment No. 1 (the Ukraine phone call impeachment) was an entirely false operation cooked up by lawfare ninja Norm Eisen in collusion with Reps. Jerrold Nadler and Adam Schiff, with assistance from CIA agent (“whistleblower”) Eric Ciaramella and NSC member Lt. Col. Alex Vindman, with a boost from then-IC Inspector General Michael Atkinson. Eisen later admitted on a video that the aim of the impeachment was to “prebunk” Veep “Joe Biden’s” bribery and grift activities in Ukraine as the Democratic party prepared to run him for president in 2020. Ciaramella had accompanied Veep “Joe Biden” on several trips to Ukraine and knew what “JB” was up to there. Indict them all for sedition and treason.

The 2020 election op was pulled off in coordination with the Covid-19 scam that positioned the nation for massive mail-in ballot fraud, which was coordinated by lawfare ninja Marc Elias, then employed by the Democratic Party law firm Perkins Coie. Elias was assisted by Mark Zuckerberg (Facebook, now Meta), whose nonprofit, Center for Tech and Civic Life (CTCL), distributed over $400-million to roughly 2500 election districts around the country, much of it used to pay select officials who would count and report mail-in ballots. The mail-in ballot fraud had been planned and gamed-out previously by the non-profit org Transition Integrity Project, run by Rosa Brooks and Nils Gilman.

In October 2020, fifty-one former intel officials signed a public letter denouncing the Hunter Biden laptop as having “the earmarks of Russian disinformation.” The letter was organized by Antony Blinken and former CIA-Director Michael Morrell. It was done in coordination with a social media campaign to suppress public knowledge of the laptop (and the Biden family record of international grift inside it) to influence the presidential election a month later. Potential fraud indictments.

The Jan 6 riot at the US Capitol has never been adequately investigated. FBI Director Wray was allowed to evade answering to Congress about the number of FBI agents and associated employees (including CIA personnel) that were mixed in with the crowd to provoke the intrusion inside the building and related violence. Speaker Nancy Pelosi engineered the situation so that the certification of electoral vote slates would not be challenged as procedure allowed. Sedition and Treason.

The Jan 6 Congressional Committee was a fraud on the American people put together by Speaker Nancy Pelosi to coverup her involvement in the crimes behind the Jan 6 Capitol riot. The members involved likely enjoy Congressional immunity for the spectacle itself, but perhaps not for destroying all the evidence that was collected in the course of the investigation. Chairman Bennie G. Thompson was responsible for that.

The Mar-a-Lago raid of August 2022 was authorized by Attorney General Merrick Garland and carried out by FBI Director Wray with Assistant Director Steven D’Antuono. Three months later, Garland appointed Jack Smith Special Counsel to oversee the Mar-a-Lago documents case, which he botched, resulting in its dismissal two years later. The raid itself arguably lacked probable cause and was based on an improper scope of evidence sought. Indict Merrick Garland under 18 U.S.C. § 241, conspiracy against rights.

The lawfare operations of 2023-2024 in several jurisdictions resulted in indictments against candidate Donald Trump and others in Fulton County, GA, and New York City. The Fulton County case under DA Fani Willis (later disqualified for “the appearance of impropriety”) was assisted by the “Joe Biden” White House, possibly by attorneys Richard Sauber and Beth Mueller in the WH Counsel’s Office, giving it the odor of a purely political prosecution. In the the Stormy Daniels hush money case against Donald Trump brought by Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg, DOJ officer Matthew Colangelo left his cushy position as Principal Deputy Associate US Attorney General to take a job assisting DA Bragg in the NYC court. Colangelo delivered the opening statement at the 2024 trial and played a central role in the prosecution. The trial was presided over by political judge Juan Merchan. Just days ago, The New York Times reported that the Democratic Party fundraising company, Authentic Campaigns, previously owned by Judge Merchan’s daughter, Loren Merchan, has been under investigation the past year. Anybody detect the odor of politics? Malicious prosecution, improper judicial conduct.

Many of the political celebrities mentioned above, and probably many not-so-well-known players, must be freaking out as the waves ominously pound the beach and the summer days tick down toward the ill winds of fall. I’m pretty sure that readers and commentors can add some candidates to the list of potential indictments, and perhaps some ops I might have overlooked. (The entire odious Covid-19 affair is partly a separate matter, but that has also commenced a new phase with the guilty plea deal announced days ago by Dr. Fauci’s chief advisor, Dr. David Morens.) Even former President Obama looks boxed-in. He enjoys immunity from actions he took as president, but that immunity prevents him from hiding behind the fifth amendment as a now-private citizen in a court of law. Things are livening up.

A Day In The Life.

Up at 10a on Saturday, a less humid, warm, 73°F, blue dky, rclear sky, breezy morning, I upped the heat briefly, made coffee, fired-up the Win-7 Pentium HP Desktop to let its 32 million lines of code load, had breakfast, had a couple smokes in the garage and checked the leftover errands list. Zero. I scanned the weather and the breaking news websites, tuned into a "CP Show" Podcast 9-12 on local WSBA-910, and relaxed for the morning. Sherry woulkd be here around 1p. It felt like a Fall Day, since the end of Summer is just around the corner, and a very, very bad, snowy, cold Winter is forecast.

OK, my bad, for not getting the "Journal" finished-up last night, but pain and painkillers put me out late and I just got it finished and uploaded to the server. A LOT of pain today, so I didn't even get ready for the day. Did I mention that we had an EF1 Tornado last week?. Same for the massive Eastern York HS Complex, which lost its roof.

Damn, I've got to find another beer, since Rolling Rock is brewed by Annheiser-Busch, after the buyout years ago, and the corporate acquisition in 2006. I'll look around next stop at The Beer Store, on Monday, when I do the York-Dallastown RT 3-4-5 errand trip..

No TV all day, but I kept in touch w/ the world thru my computer. I also began a 48hr fast w/ only water or zero sugar sweet tea, to help get my BSL (Blood Sugar Level) back to under 150.

I did some condo chores, used the computer for news and weather, and took a short 2hr nap mid-afternoon. Very heavy t-storms slammed into the York-Lancaster-Harrisburg areas just after 11p, with heavy rain continuing past when I quit for the night, at 2a.

Up at 7a on Sunday, a mostly cloudy, foggy, coold 66°, made coffee, I laid down on the LR couch, and cruised back to sleep until 10:15a. Lots of pain. Back up at 10:30, I jhad coffee, scanned the news and weather websites, and tried to get the day planned. I got ready for the day and week, started the first load of laundry, and watch some motor racing in between loads. The 2026 Dutch Grand Prix replay was on, and I watched the IndyCar Freedom 250 GP live, for 3hrs.

The chores got done, I watched the evening news, switched to TWC's "Weather Gone Viral" and then to Discovery's "Deadline To Disaster" and bagged it for the night at 2a.

Awake at 7a, I rolled over and went back to sleep until 10a, on Monday. BFD. Finally up at 9:45, I made coffee tuned into the ongoing "CP Show", decided not to do my usual Monday RT to Dallastown's cleaners, and just relaxed until Sis called and came by to chat and drop-off some of her delicious, homemade Egg & Olive Salad. We spent somew nice time catching-up on Family things, and she was gone by 1:30p.

I had some errands to get done, and left around 2. Traffic was heavy, as it was compressed into certain roads due to the many construction chokepoints and storm repair vehicle teams. It is what it is. Back home in un der 2hrs, I unloaded, got the garbage bin ready to go out for Tuesday morning p/u, and had lunch. After a short nap, I watched the 6p news, switched to History's "History's Greatest Mysteries" and TWC's "Weather Gone Viral" until 1a, and unplugged.

Up at 8:15a on Tuesday, a clear sky, cool 65°, moderate humidity, i made coffee, scanned the news and weather websites, and tuned into the "CP Show" from 9-12. After a late breakfast, I brought in the garbage bin, did some weeding on th back patio garden, and enjoyed the cool, dry, sunny weather. I had some excruciating on/off R/S pain, and used the aspirin, Tramadol, stretching exercises and heating pad on the LR couch, for the rest of the day, after thpse simple things. Damn.

I watched the evening news, skipped dinner -- pain takes my appetite away -- and switched to History's "Curse of Oak Island" until 12:30a, and bagged it for the day.

Up at 8:30a on Wednesday, a blue sky, sunny, 63°, morning, I made coffee, scanned the weather and news sites, and fell asleep on the LR couch until 10a. Nice. The pain had subsided overnight, so today wouldn't be nearly as bad as yesterday. Sherry called mid-morning to reschedule todays gettogether, to Friday, for a medical emergency of her Son.

Awake at 7a, I rolled over and went back to sleep until 10a, on Thursday, a blue sky, very humid, warm 76°, morning, I made coffee, checked the AC at 7465°,, and tuned into the ongoing "CP Show". I scanned the news and weather ***SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS*** forecasts posted for this afternoon and evening, so I'd be bringing the Jeep into the garage.

After lunch, I did some local errands, came home and unloaded, and had a nice 2hr nap. I finished the morning's Kona Coffee, watched the evening news, and switched to Discovery's "Filthy Fortunes" and History's "Engineering From Above" and "Mysteries From Above", until 1:30a. Lights out. Massive t-storm cells hit the area from 7:30 until well after midnight, and the downpours were steady all evening. The flora and atr happy.

Up at 9a on Friday, an overcast, breezy, humid, 74°, morning, I made doffee, scanned the weather and news, and tuned into the ongoing "CP Show", from 9-12noon. Aspiutin helped with the pain on the R/S.

I got ready for the day, and for Sherry, who'd be here around 1p. We planned to go to nearby Springettsbury Twp Park, just an 1/8 of a mile dow the road, and get in a little walking, which we hadn't done since last October. (My fault) And we did. The we drove to Saubel's Market, a few miles east, and got some things for her and me. Back to my place where we relaxed and talked for a couple hours until she left around 5;30.

I made dinner, watched the news and switched to History's "Ancient Aliens" and "unXplained" until 11:30p, and unplugged.

Today stargs a new week, here in the "Journal" and except for a midweek app't with my PCP Dr, I had a clear week. The heavy medical Dr app't schedule is in the first 2-3 weeks of September, just around the corner.

Ghetto Galas

Here are some facts. Jews constitute 2% of the US population. They are victims of 67% of all hate crimes. A subset of young black males, members of the subculture, is responsible for a disproportionate percentage of violent crimes. An inordinate number of black victims of violent crime are the victims of black-on-black crime. If the relatively small number of recidivist black criminals were subjected to constitutional prosecutions and incarceration for convictions, and if mandated treatment for mental illness were available and utilized, the number of crimes destroying sanctuary cities in blue and red states would plummet. In the war on cops, more white cops than black were shot. In one recent year, only 14 blacks were shot by cops. The shootings are usually precipitated by a failure to comply with police directives, a desire for suicide by cop, or an ideological commitment some blacks make to killing cops. Methods vary from vehicles to guns to knives to beatings. Many police departments are now comprised of a majority of minority members. Leftist accusations of systematic racist killings of blacks by “white” police forces are untrue.

Here are some lies. American citizens commit crimes at a higher rate than illegal aliens. Blacks are victims of police brutality. Cops are engaged in a war on black men. Racism permeates police departments. The justice system is systemically racist. Restorative justice can offset the prison-industrial complex. DEI, intersectionality, and identity politics show that blacks are the oppressed who are punished again by the police. Defunding the police departments and replacing cops with social workers will de-escalate community tensions.

Law enforcement agents are colonizers and occupiers who commit genocide against blacks. AGs, DAs and prosecutors should mitigate the impact of historic racism by reducing felonies to misdemeanors, shortening jail terms, abolishing ICE and bail, shutting down prisons, refusing to employ gun enhancement sentences, replacing incarceration with ankle bracelets, removing supervision, instituting consent decrees that emasculate police, issuing stand down orders, and calling revolution, insurrection, pogroms, riots and sabotage “mostly peaceful” demonstrations.

“Where have all the parents gone?” might be a contemporary verse for that old anti-war song. Some black conservatives argue that the absence of fathers in the home contributes to the failure to socialize offspring. Others claim that the single mothers, much praised in our culture, are frequently inadequate role models. Many are babies themselves when they reproduce. They are incapable of raising babies to a maturity they never reached. Some encourage the worst attitudes and behaviors in their kids. Gang membership is often intergenerational. There are conversations about whether or not to hold parents responsible for their teenagers’ truancy, curfew violations, “mischief,” or felonious activities. It might work with some parents to induce them to control their children.

Recently, Sunny Hostin, a race-obsessed member of “The View,” compared BLM and Antifa activities with January 6, which she called far worse. Here are some lies. Police were killed. The Capitol was trashed. Trump summoned his supporters to attack the Capitol. It was a massive insurrection that threatened democracy. People apprehended and imprisoned deserved it and should not be eligible to be compensated from a special fund.

Here are some facts. The only people murdered that day were an unarmed veteran, Ashli Babbitt, who was shot by a cop with a sketchy record, and Rosanne Boyland, beaten to death by cops. Police were videoed leaving their posts just before Babbitt’s murder. Peaceful marchers heeded Trump’s words to “peacefully and patriotically” march to the Capitol. Pelosi rejected Trump’s previous offer of 10,000 National Guardsmen to manage the projected huge crowds. More than 240 armed FBI agents were in the crowds, although Chris Wray denied any numbers. Police welcomed marchers into the building, even providing tours. Those who walked onto Capitol grounds had a permit to do so, and many were stopped by cops before reaching the permitted red line. Damage was limited.

More than 1,000 Americans were subsequently apprehended and imprisoned, even some who weren’t at the march or in D.C. on January 6th. Americans exercising First Amendment rights were subjected to intolerable conditions for months without being charged. Many were held in solitary confinement. They were denied access to lawyers, charges, or procedures without deliberate delays. One citizen committed suicide when threatened with an outrageously long sentence for trespassing. Some pleaded guilty to charges to avoid more significant charges and longer sentences. Pelosi and Benny Thompson, head of the packed committee that did not reflect Republican representation (anti-Trump Kinzinger and Cheyny), failed to keep documents and destroyed videos and other evidence.

The goal of this Reichstag Fire event was to defame Trump and prevent the constitutional questioning of electoral slates submitted by state legislatures. Democrats did just that during the previous Republican victories. Senators prepared to question slates were discouraged from doing so by the widespread media misinformation campaign. The chaos that ensued never reached the level of an insurrection but was sufficient to frighten off any legal challengers and give the election to Biden. It was one iteration of an ongoing coup initiated by Obama and continuing today.

Here are some facts about 2020, the summer of love. A disproportionate number of the members of BLM were black. That does not minimize or justify the number of white “useful idiots” who supported them with social media posts, excommunication of family and friends who opposed that corrupt, communist group, and flags and lawn signs, or the white oligarchs and Democrats of all colors who backed them. The founders were self-professed communists who received training in communist countries. Inciting violence against cops, blacks executed five cops in Dallas alone. They also executed cops in NYC and around the country.

The BLM/Antifa insurrections numbered in the hundreds. An estimated 30-35 Americans were murdered, and 2,000 police officers were wounded or injured. Dead law enforcement members included Dave Patrick Underwood, a DHS agent guarding a federal building in Oakland. Retired officer David Dorn was murdered by a black rioter while protecting his friend’s store from looters. He was shot for a television set. Cities were torched. A secessionist group seized territory in brain-dead Seattle to establish Chop and Chaz, lawless tributes to their anarchistic factions. They torched cities and business centers, depriving entrepreneurs of their dreams and residents of access to goods and services they needed. They intimidated millions, driving people whose fear outweighed their common sense to take a knee. Corporations donated millions that did not go to help black communities. It enriched BLM grifters who purchased luxury real estate. Media mouthpieces for the left described the insurrections using euphemisms to downplay the revolutionary goals. Criminality without consequences escalated when bail was eliminated, police forces defunded, diminished, and deprived of the right to carry out their mission. Like Antifa, BLM achieved international prominence with funds and ops. They colluded with their comrades abroad to achieve communist goals.

Blacks deified George Floyd. He died of fentanyl, other illegal drugs in his system, COVID, and other ailments. He said he couldn’t breathe while he was still standing. That was a symptom of fentanyl. His grown children admitted they barely remembered him. He had not played a part in their lives. He was too busy committing felonies and violating parole. Democrats in African cloth took a knee in the Capitol and pretended this man was a victim of racism. Racism had nothing to do with his death. But six years later, Mayor Frey, who fiddled while Minnesota burned thanks to BLM and Antifa arsonists, used Memorial Day to remind us of the death of this anti-American icon.

Not one Democrat office holder attended a Memorial Day ceremony to thank our fallen. They were too busy shoving George Floyd down our throats and declaring war on ICE. NJ Governor Mikkie Sherrill joined Senator “Spartacus” and others to interfere with ICE duties at a detention facility. They insisted on rights they did not have to enter and create chaos they could blame on ICE. Among their atrocities were assaults on ICE officers, blocking a van, and other acts of recalcitrant, rage-fueled, Democrat-protected violence. Ordinary citizens have been replaced by illegal aliens as Democrat constituents deserving of entitlements and protection. Detainees included two murderers, a child molester, and other savage felons Democrats elevate in the tradition of George Floyd, a native-born barbarian. Democrats use the racial background of aliens, which is primarily non-white, to justify protecting them. Few Europeans were witnessed during the Biden Open Borders. Most of the invading hordes were people of color. Biden, who let them in, was white. He and those who want to keep the illegal aliens here are the racists.

What the insurrections did not accomplish in paving the way for a rigged election, the SPLC exacerbated. Whites were not the prime threat to America. Few committed crimes against blacks for racial reasons. They did not commit most of the terrorist acts or hate crimes. The Democrats needed a narrative that blamed white supremacy so they could defund conservatives, fill their own coffers, reimburse their crony nonprofits, and justify DEI policies that institutionalized black racism.

Here are some facts. The fluidity of racist and class warfare is a Marxist lie. Your race does not determine whether you are a villain or a victim. That is scientifically absurd. There is no reason for guilt or reparations because you are white. There is no reason for dependency, a sense of grievance, or anti-social behavior because you are black. No one is entitled to actions without consequences. With almost two million black millionaires in this country, racism is not the operative explanation for black inequality, disparate outcomes, or poverty. Infantilizing blacks augmented dependency and validated criminality. Segregation, “gift” of the Democrats, was outlawed decades ago. Continuing segregation of classes, application criteria, hirings, promotions, tenure, proms, graduation ceremonies, professional oaths for doctors and lawyers, dorms, student centers, and eligibility for scholarships are gifts of the Democrats. Outlawed by the Supreme Court and the Trump Administration, such separatist, polarizing, and weaponizing policies and practices of Democrats and the left continue. The Deep State does go deep.

It is not difficult to discern the disproportionate black participation in criminality. For decades, gangs warred upon each other for control of territory, killing targets, and unintended prey, collateral damage in their rampages. They spread drugs, weapons, ritual violence, and glamorized status through our cities and our culture. Now enhanced by cartel control, their capacity for chaos grows. Knock-out punches showed videos of young black males, operating alone or in groups, randomly sending innocent passersby to the sidewalks, where some of them died. Victims were generally white, Jewish, or Asian, frequently women, and always unsuspecting targets. Then, smash and grab gangs attacked affluent shopping areas, malls, or luxury stores, claiming a pigmented license to steal. Few spectators dared name the black privilege that besets whole neighborhoods.

Watch videos of the brawls besetting our beaches, proms, graduations, and “teen takeovers” of city streets. It is unavoidable. Most participants in lawless, violent, anti-social behaviors are young blacks. Yes, most of them do not have fathers to impose discipline, rules, or results. These predators roam the streets at all hours of the night. Mothers aren’t much better, often modeling the very lack of discipline, self-respect, or maturity to raise their children. Acculturation or socialization requires two parents. Certainly, there are some parents, and some single parents, who try to instill decency in their children. Some succeed. There are countless black youth who have been deprived of their opportunities by the ghetto marauders.

The anti-intellectualism of envious blacks helps account for their lack of respect for their peers who achieve. The “good kids” are deprived of classroom instruction that is not disrupted by the deviants. They are not permitted to celebrate their accomplishments when they graduate and want to be called up on stage for recognition and a diploma. They earned the right to attend a peaceful prom. Should they journey to a beach, they want to enjoy the sun and surf, the boardwalk, and friends without fear of a riot. Sitting in a restaurant, they can suddenly be hit by a chair sent flying by another black person who is not a brother. Rap celebrates the parasites and predators, but rarely their victims, black or white.

It is not only blacks who behave in this depraved fashion. Thomas Caleb Butler punched a 69-year-old Army veteran, Kerry Sheron, who decorated his pro-American Trump House. Butler, only 32 and old enough to know better, attacked him. Sheron fell to the ground and hit his head. Butler hit him in the head repeatedly. He died days later in a hospital. A good Samaritan who intervened was also injured. The monster who murdered Charlie Kirk was white. Bernie Sanders, Platner, Steyer, Soros, and others are also white men who don’t care about normal citizens. They exploit “black rage” to create revolution. Rhetoric and violence to destroy America, Israel, and Western Civilization might be labeled treason.

As our culture of assassination reached ideologues and lunatics who tried to murder President Trump, young men, both black and white, joined their ranks. They acted as individuals but were clearly radicalized by elements of society. All were linked by leftist ideologies. The most recent was Cole Allen, a 31-year-old biracial man from California. On April 30,th he tried to assassinate Trump and his cabinet at the White House Press Corps dinner to celebrate what purports to be a free press.

A few days later, another black man, Nasire Best, from Maryland, shot at Secret Service members from the perimeter of the White House. In the shoot-out that left the documented mentally ill man dead, an innocent bystander was hit and hospitalized in critical condition. Known to the Secret Service, Best had previously been apprehended and subjected to a psychiatric evaluation at a hospital. He was cleared and underwent another encounter with the Secret Service. Crooks had evidence of some sexual deviancy, as did another white man, Tyler Robinson, the gay lover of a man undergoing gender transition, who assassinated Charlie Kirk.

There was a black brawl in Bridgeport, Connecticut. A security guard was assaulted at CT State, where chairs were thrown. At Hyde Park, teen fist-fights broke out. Beach occupations are occurring at Rhode Island, Delaware, and New Jersey beaches. Sometimes the rioters take a train in from Newark. In the Navy Yard in DC, a Chipotle restaurant was vandalized while diners were traumatized by young black teens who threw chairs and punches. There was another riot at the Gateway Community College, where some of the assailants came from NY. At a Tennessee high school, blacks started a riot that prevented graduates from walking on stage to receive their moment of recognition. There was another brawl at a suburban Chicago high school.

There were at least 25 people shot over the Memorial Day weekend in Chicago, a city that has suffered from decades of Democrat rule, including the current Illinois Governor and Chicago Mayor. That is not unusual for Chicago, where a do-nothing mayor utters banalities and does nothing effective. There is a convergence of crazies, a culture that requires a ban on backpacks and considers instituting a curfew for the mobs that wrecked Seaside Heights. Long Beach, NJ, went from a favorite beach destination to the site of pop-up parties of modern-day Caligulas. Several hundred young blacks jumped up on cars, twerked, vandalized, made noise, and rioted, discomforting other blacks and whites who wanted to enjoy a day at the beach.

In Chicago and its suburbs, women using credit cards and debit cards paid for by taxpayers, fed their need for conspicuous consumption and status by spending inordinate amounts on their kids’ proms and graduations. They didn’t bother to instill any values, but provided their loud, disrespectful, overly indulged high school kids with a helicopter, wads of cash to flash, expensive dresses and outfits, and the indulgence of unsupervised post-prom activities that sometimes led to riots.

Five policemen were deliberately run over by a young black man in a vehicle. Another cop was assaulted by a black man with brass knuckles. His teeth were knocked out, and some teeth were embedded in the roof of his mouth. His family said he was singled out for his uniform. I suspect he was also singled out for being white.

Presumably, even if you were deprived of ethical education, you grew up to an age where good and evil, right and wrong, should have emerged. Religion, a nuclear family, the values of civil society, and an appreciation of our civilization would improve the prospects of growing up as a tolerant, respectful, grateful, decent human being. Unfortunately, the spread of communist and Islamist narratives undermined traditions. Indoctrination replaced education. The collective replaced individuality. Totalitarian forces are propagandizing our youth.

The war on boys and men is particularly injurious in the black subculture. The pain suffered by black citizens who are people of principle is severe and can be deleterious. They are no more responsible for the evil behaviors of some than whites are responsible for the evil behaviors of others. People who look like you may have nothing in common with you. The union of blacks and whites who share character, conscience, values, and affinity for our Constitutional Republic is imperative. The racists, both black and white, who produce babies without raising them, join the red/green alliance to legitimize their envy and bloodlust, and continue to engage in criminal behavior without consequences, must be stopped.

Teen takeovers of streets, their noise and vandalism, lawless operation of vehicles making intersections unsafe for drivers and pedestrians, are not pranks. They are the acts of black youth old enough to know better, free of any parental control, oblivious to a system of law and order that grants them immunity and that delights in raising hell. They can be out in the streets at 3:30 AM. They can put people into hospitals or graves. They can gain a reputation and some degree of celebrity. They are heroes to the harridans who cheer on havoc. They are increasingly mindless and soulless threats to our society. Black rioters are in the same circle of hell as the whites who work as paid activists on behalf of Palestinian terrorists, LGBT insanity, antifa, and BLM anarchists and revolutionaries.

Ghetto galas have venues for violence. They are the heroes of the Hood. They are feral animals who are aging into activism as they move through the secular madrassas that pretend to be schools. Gangsters are glorified, pigment gets privileges, and takedowns add to the takeover of our country. They overspend on proms because they lack priorities and are happy to rip off the taxpayers. They absorb the social media mania. They claim to be war-weary but have never fought for anything decent or for this country. They create warlike conditions for their victims, who are afraid to fight back.

Like Tim Walz’s wife, they enjoyed the smell of burning tires when BLM burned down cars and the city of Minneapolis. They turn sidewalks, churches, synagogues, intersections, federal buildings, malls, beaches, and graduations into hellscapes. They manage to be armed, but gun control Democrats make it difficult, if not impossible, for decent blacks and whites to obtain guns legally for their own self-defense. Those responsible for mayhem are largely illiterate, historically ignorant, and lacking in curiosity about the world beyond their impulses and grievances. Many hate whites and Jews. Many show disdain for their fellow blacks whom they subject to their violence. Their 72% illegitimacy rate has not worked. It is not the moral or practical equivalent of legitimacy.

The statistics tell the facts and the truth. Children born to married parents who graduated high school, if not college, and who are employed tend to do better in school. They tend not to drop out, use drugs, commit crimes, or end up in jail. Conservatives’ belief in free will and inalienable rights endowed by our Creator. Leftists’ belief in class or race-ordained destiny makes your race your fate. How absurd. How anti-human. It explains why so many black and white youth sanction ghetto-style galas. Some suffer from suicidal-empathy. Some are enabled and emboldened by the virtue-signaling whites to think they have a right to destroy everything wonderful that whites or blacks worked hard to create.

Nero, Stalin, Mao, and Mamdani enjoyed their versions of ghetto galas. The rest of us, the rational, spiritual, traditional blacks and whites, do not. Hasan Piker, a communist with a megaphone, calls for the blood of capitalists to flow in the streets. There are several levels of violence. Oligarchs fund and organize from the top tier. Legacy media justifies Democrat liars, Deep State, and street thugs by slandering society as White supremacist. BLM, Antifa, and pro-Hamas backers of globalizing the Intifada carry out chaos on a lower level, closer to the people. Individual criminals, native born and illegal alien “imports” spread criminality without consequences across sanctuary cities and states.

The red/green alliance attracts new followers from the radicalized, irrational youth. When Americans of all colors venture to the ocean for a day at the beach, they have more to fear than sharks in the water. Ghetto galas can attack on land. No one is safe. The problems have been identified. Solutions have been offered. It is time for action, proactive and reactive. Ghetto galas and crime coming from black and white devils must be stopped. We cannot rest before one more innocent American citizen is laid to rest.
