Islam is Destroying Western Culture: Europe

Robin M. Itzler

If you wish to experience Europe with all its unique nations, hurry because the entire continent is rapidly changing due to (legal and illegal) unchecked Islamic immigration, demographic shifts, and political pandering. Even with no future immigration, Muslims in Europe will increase their population. They are giving birth at a much higher rate than non-Muslims: 2.6 children compared to 1.6 children. It doesn’t take a mathematician to see where this goes. In 2006, Muammar Gaddafi said:

“We have 50 million Muslims in Europe. There are signs that Allah will grant Islam victory in Europe—without swords, without guns, without conquest—will turn it into a Muslim continent within a few decades.” Most European leadership is blind to what is happening—or doesn’t care.

If you visit Europe, know where you are walking. The Migration Research Institute in Budapest, which is affiliated with the renowned Matthias Corvinus College, estimated in 2024 that there are 900 NO-GO ZONES across Europe. This is the result of Europe’s open-border policies that brought in an influx of Muslims who do not wish to assimilate into their adopted homeland. Instead, they want their adopted home- land to become an Islamic “Sharia paradise.”

German playwright Botho Strauss wasn’t afraid to say what many have been thinking:

“In the course of the demographic change due to the majority of Muslim population in the metropolises expected in the near future, other priorities could emerge with respect to tolerance and diversity. How ridiculous and senseless then it is to continue with the tired and saccharine tones of ‘tolerance’ towards a class of people who in our cities are rising to the majority.”

Throughout Europe, if you say anything about what is happening to your country or continent due to the influx of legal or illegal radicalized Muslim immigrants, you’re quickly called Islamophobic—and possibly arrested. For example, Member of Parliament Paul Scully was verbally attacked in February for appearing on BBC Radio London, where he responded to another MP by saying:

“There are areas where there are a tiny minority of people who make people uncomfortable about not being of their religion, of their culture, who are misinterpreting their own doctrine. That’s not to say Tower Hamlets itself is a no-go area.”

Scully was quickly criticized for even implying that London has any no-go areas. The BBC quoted a source close to London’s Mayor Sadiq Khan:

“Unfortunately, Paul Scully is resorting to a notorious Islamophobic trope - with the highly offensive and untrue claim that there are ‘no-go’ areas for non-Muslims in parts of London.”

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer calls anti- immigrant “far right” as if it’s a bad thing to want to protect your homeland from an Islamic invasion. Just ask the people in Wethersfield, England who will only whisper the truth about what asylum seekers are doing to their once quaint village.

P&D and The Week That Was

 Truth is the Sublime Convergence of History and Reality

De Omnibus Dubitandum, (Everything is to be questioned!)

This Link will take you to My Commentaries.

By Rich Kozlovich

I consider Victor Davis Hanson to be the premiere historian in America. There are a lot of really excellent historians in the nation, but history is a story, he has a quality so many of the rest lack. He tells a great story.    He asks if you wanted to destroy American, how would you go about it?  Then he gives you the answer by describing the disastrous polices of Joe Biden and the Democrats for the last four years, but he also lays the blame on Republicans, and rightly so.   This didn't just start in 2020, but the last four years was like comparing a runny nose with terminal cancer.   Make sure to watch his video. 

You Gotta Admit That Trump Is Packing Some Major Cajones  - Literally. Remember, if a Republican doesn’t win in 2028, the lawfare is back on and squared. His enemies tried to bankrupt him with lawsuits that would’ve been laughed out of the courts had the defendant not been Donald J. Trump. His enemies tried to frame him and throw him in jail for the rest of his life. When that didn’t work, they tried to kill him. Twice. 

His enemies managed to blow his ear lobe off and murder an innocent man who got in the way. Then the next one tried to do it with a rifle only because he couldn’t come up with the Stinger missile he wanted to get from his Ukrainian buddies.  Talk about high stakes. But Trump doesn’t care. Move over, honey badger. President 47 is in the house, and no Schiffs are given..........

But we need to appreciate the risk our President is taking to Make America Great Again. Trump is risking everything. We know because they’ve already tried to kill him, twice, and about half of them think killing him would be a great idea. That means that for President Trump, this is literally a matter of life and death, and the most awesome and inspiring thing is that he just doesn’t care..........

Last week, Senator Corey Booker "set a new record by delivering the longest speech ever in the history of the Senate", and the accolades poured in from the left.   The fact is, they can throw all the accolades at him they please, but the reality is the man talked for 25 hours and said nothing. How do I know that? Show me one quote the media, or his misfit colleagues keep repeating? Not one. 
 
Winston Churchill’s “I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat” speech lasted minutes, and that phrase has been quoted for over eighty years.   Standing in front of the Brandenburg Gate in 1987 Ronald Reagan said, ”Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall”, and it's been quoted ever since.   In 2018 Cory Booker said, “I am Spartacus”, and everyone laughed!   It's only quoted as proof he's an egomaniacal dolt, for which he’s now presented unquestioned confirmation. 

One commenter at American thinker said:

Quick! Someone post at least five things he said in those 25 hours’ worth repeating or that will go into a “Great quotes of politicians” book. His 25 hours was like camping out in the pasture with the jackass’s and cattle, a lot of noise that amounts to nothing. 

Yes, Booker is Democrat presidential timber for sure, right along with the rest of the Democrat bench.  Gavin Newsom, AOC, Buttigieg, Tampon Timmy Walz, Rahm Emanuel, Kamala Harris, and now it appears Jasmine Crockett is being thrown into the mix.   Senator John Kennedy says he thinks AOC is the leader of the Democrat party now, and he also thinks she's the reason why they put directions on shampoo bottles.  It gets better.  In spite of the influence AOC now has in the party, it's felt it will be Kamala in 2028.  Ya just gotta see the humor in that.  But nonetheless, it's being reported the machinery is already in the works, "but the moment she’s challenged she’ll fall apart again and primary voters will be reminded of what a lousy candidate she is and not want to take the risk."

This Rust Belt Revival piece was a good article, wisely outlining what society really wants: 

They want good jobs. They want their kids to do better than they do. They want to own a home. They want to pay down their debt. This isn’t hard.”  

And you’re right, it isn’t that hard to understand, if one wants to understand. Machiavelli noted almost 500 years ago the one foundational truth these elites keep ignoring.   Everything is the basics, the masses just want security. Why do they ignore it? Because the elites want “more”, and don’t care what the masses want or need.   Just like Henry Kissinger and his acolyte Klaus Schwab, who thinks there should be a world government that’s run like China, and in his case, run by China.  Their delusional ideology caused them to make decisions that are so destructive, it will take decades to overcome, and some may never entirely be overcome.

What about Greenland and Denmark?  This was an interesting article which described the unjustified arrogant thinking of the European elite, which has been going on since America was founded. Constantly looking down their noses at America, and entirely too many American leaders seeking their approval.  was a Anglophile, and like Teddy Roosevelt believed in two concepts:  "l'etat se moi", I am the state, and the Constitution is an impediment to human progress.

While publicly proclaiming he was not going to get America involved in WWI, in the background he was doing everything he could to make that happen.  America's involvement turned the tide against Germany because all of Europe was running out of young men to throw up against machine gun emplacements, and the added American demographic, rightly or wrongly, doomed Germany.   That laid the foundation for WWII, and the cold war.  

As the years went by I got sick of hearing "America's allies abroad" don't like this or don't like that.  And I really got sick of hearing these nitwits saying: “when will America learn” this or “when will America learn” that. Learn from who? These European failures?   

America's allies abroad are now and have always been leaky vessels, money grubbing, ungrateful, incompetent failures that only exist because America spent thousands of gallons of blood and trillions of dollars saving them - militarily and economically - and that economic number goes into multiple trillions of dollars as a result of the Bretton Woods thinking. Yet, with their idiotic globalist economic policies, compounded with their multiculturalism, green, and immigration policies, they’ve thrown that away.

Many Americans have recognized who and what European leadership is really all about, and have been tired of their arrogant stupidity for decades.  Make no mistake, I really don’t care what Denmark, a nation with a population of 5.947 million thinks. In Ohio we have 11.88 million, and we think much better than Denmark, or Europe as a whole for that matter.  Europe is doomed, and good riddance, they’ve been leech on America for over 100 years, and that ends now, but Greenland is an issue that can’t and won’t go away. 
 
Truman should have taken it over during WWII, since Germany conquered Denmark, thus it longer existed as an independent nation, and had no say in anything.  They surrendered and had no government in exile.  In spite of the fact Truman was an avid history buff, he was always over his head when it came to geopolitics.

A third Trump term? This is all deliberate Trump hyperbole, and it just ain’t gonna happen. He does love to stir up the pot though. What’s strange is the more he does it the better he look. This could be an edition of Ripley’s Believe it or Not. 

More information is being rolled out about the corruption of the Deep State, especially the FBI.  The conspiracy theorists were right, federal agents were most likely involved in January 6 "Riots:", and the official version of events seriously need to be answered, and the fact is there needs to be a serious investigation nationally as to why the police stand and do nothing while Antifa thugs violently attack conservative students at UC Davis.  Who's responsible for this?  There needs to be lawsuits filed, right along with criminal charges, and officials need to be fired.  

The number of rulings from SCOTUS and these rogue district court justices has been coming fast and furious, and this one, The Supreme Court affirms Justice Boasberg lacked jurisdiction over Trump's deportation decision under the Alien Enemies act.  This ruling is a mixed bag, and it’s time to fix this by Congress passing a law stating the judiciary has exceeded it’s Constitution authority and has no jurisdiction in this matter, and are now in the process of doing so.  They also need to state this law cannot be reviewed by the courts, which the Congress has the right to do, and has done so in the past.    

All this clabber by the federal judiciary is blatant nonsense.  There’s only one thing that needs to be determined about these migrants, and that is if they’re here illegally or not. If they're here illegally then they’re alien criminals and they have no rights under the Constitution, and deportation should be automatic with absolutely no redress from the courts. 

I find this decision by SCOTUS most baffling.   Supreme Court Orders US to Facilitate Return of Alleged El Salvadoran MS-13 Gang Member Kilmar Abrego Garcia.   The man was here illegally, which in itself should be enough to justify his deportation.  His M13 cohorts identified him as a high ranking gang member and yet SCOTUS ruled unanimously..... unanimously mind you......  he has to be returned!  What am I missing here?  First, these judges have absolutely no jurisdiction over the foreign nations to where these criminals have been deported. Secondly, just exactly how does SCOTUS think they can force the government to enact their decision? 

All of which becomes even more convoluted since now Mahmoud Khalil, who was a leading figure in antisemitic pro Hamas campus riots, and who adamantly hates America can be deported, and he's outraged at this "injustice".  Imagine that!   He lost even though he was defended by high priced lawyers who tried to shop this case to a friendly judge, but SCOTUS has ruled that can't be done now.  To quote Dan Rather:  "Questions remain".  Such as who funded those lawyers? 

For decades the judiciary has been taking more power than the founding fathers ever intended, or the Constitution allows, but now they’ve become out of control revolutionaries, and that has to be stopped, and stopped now. This is a window of opportunity, and it’s not taken advantage of that window may close and may never open again, along with ending all this vile lawfare activity, in which it seems abundantly clear, these judges are complicit in this corruption of the rule of law.  All of which is right out of the leftists playbook for the imposition of tyranny, and the goal of destroying individual rights in favor of absolute control of society practiced by Hitler, Stalin, Mao, and every tyrant that ever lived.   

  • Anti-Trump lawfare: yes, it's a conspiracy - It seems certain federal district judges have no such powers.  Federal judges across the country are being cherry picked in a jurisdiction shopping scheme in furtherance of Democrat’s lawfare campaign against President Trump. Its goal is to use Democrat judges who can be relied upon to ignore the Constitution and the law in favor of imposing Democrat policy, subverting Trump’s legitimate Article II powers. In essence, district court judges are imposing their Democrat political preferences, appointing themselves president. In so doing, they’re preventing President Trump from exercising his Constitutional powers and enacting the will of the voters.

Read "Into the Whirlwind", chapter six of Tony Judt’s Postwar, A History of Europe since 1945, if you want to see just how vile and monstrous these lunatics can twist and warp the law, the prosecutors, and the courts. 

This week I have seven articles of my own, and twenty three other commentaries, and I've added a fifth permanent link regarding the national debt, and a sixth for wisdom's sake.  Last week my computer was in the shop so there was no P&D and The Week That Was.  I still wished to highlight the articles for that week and went back and posted an updated P&D for that week, with five articles of my own and seventeen by others, enjoy!

Have a great weekend, and best wishes to all persons of good will and honest heart.

Observations From the Back Row, With News and Views For March 28, 2025

By Rich Kozlovich Tags:

I've been reading how Disney's Snow White is such a Woke disaster, it will lose tens of million s of dollars, and this has been the pattern at Disney for a long time.  I ended my TV subscription a long time ago, and they destroyed the Star Wars franchise, again losing millions, and raised prices at their amusement parks to make up for that, and are now losing visitors. 

What boggles the mind is their continued crusade to push all this Woke stuff in spite of failure after failure, and now, it's my opinion, we’re going to see the public become much more open about why they hate all this stuff. Calling them by whatever negative epithet is of the moment is going to bounce off people because the alternative media has exposed the consequences of “Wokeness” and people are fast coming to the conclusion they just don’t care what these leftists think, what they do, or what they say.   

Culture is king, and we have to wonder if we're now seeing a cultural shift.  It's being claimed the Gen Z generation is one of the most conservative generations because they've suffered the consequences of Woke, and don't like it.  But I have reservations about all these young college educated people. 

When doing man on the street interviews, and in the last one I saw was students on the beach, and they're asked fundamental questions about history and government, they're stunningly ignorant.  They don't know who fought in the Revolutionary War, they don't know who the Vice President is, they don't know how many jurists sit on the Supreme court, and the list goes on and on..... embarrassingly on and on... and these are college students.  That should concern everyone.  

With Trump and Putin talking about some sort of solution to Ukraine, and future economic issues, guess who's the most concerned?  China!  

I used to shake my head and roll my eyes at all the rhetoric about how China and Russia were now big buddies, but they have history, and that history hasn't been pleasant, correspondingly they never trusted each other before and they don't now.  I used to wonder if these journalists ever read a history book, but this kind of clabber was coming from geopolitical specialists also, demonstrating preconceptualism is a mental disorder, a disorder Henry Kissinger suffered from. 

When the dust settles the Russians are gong to be in need of a major fix to their economy, and that can't come from China, but S. Korea and Japan deals may be on the table, which also would concern China since Japan has stated a desire to take on more defensive responsibilities in the region, with U.S. approval.  

But real economic benefits will have to come from America, and that whole potential scares Xi.  But make no mistake, Russia needs this war to end or their economic situation will become so bad they won't be able to catch up to either China or the U.S.  Putin has put forward a plan for Ukraine to put under UN management, with some interesting initiatives, and that won't happen either, but it shows his desperation, and the geopolitical world sees it for what it is. 

The other mostly unspoken truth about Russia is it's demographic pyramid, it's a mess.  Ten years go it was estimated by 2040 ethnic Russians will be a minority in their own nation, and statistically there are less men than women, and with the massive loses in this war it's even worse.  Russian history is replete with wars, starvation, and gulags, and serious cultural problems involving alcoholism, AIDS, and mental illness.  The foundational cultural paradigm in Russia is suffering, and how to overcome it.  That history will never go away, the rest is potentially fixable. 

One of the things that's emerged economically out of the Russo/Ukrainian War is how nations found alternative sources for their needs.  Once that happens, no one is willing to go back to "the olden days", as now these nations have a greater degree of autonomy, and they like it.

Ukraine is insisting European nations contribute boots on the ground to fight Russia, and on the front line.  That's not playing well as they've only offered peace keeping forces after the war is over, which is the usual double talk and virtual signaling by Europe's "leaders".  

News and Views For March 28, 2025

Democrats

‘The New York Times Created Castro’ - During an interview with Kengor on Wednesday’s edition of The Alex Marlow Show podcast, Breitbart Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow highlighted Kengor’s PragerU video on Cuba’s communist dictator Fidel Castro..........“A couple of things jumped out at me in your PragerU video on Castro,” Marlow said. “The New York Times created Castro, I had never thought of it that way.”.........

Editor's Note:  For those interested, please view by Humberto Fontova file, where he outlines all of this and much, much more, including JFK's corruption in preserving Castro, the embrace of media stars and Hollywood celebrities.  All this has been known for years, and suppressed for years by the Pravda media, academia, and the Democrat party.  RK

Quote of the day - The quote of the day comes via EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin Congratulations to Mr. Zeldin on the quote of the day: “I have terminated the $2 BILLION Biden EPA grant to this Stacey Abrams-linked NGO. The DOJ/FBI are investigating and the money has been frozen. It is insane that the Biden Admin would give $2B to an organization that previously only received $100!”...........

Alex Marlow with PragerU’s Dr. Paul Kengor: Democrats ‘Gave Us Pol Pot’ - During an interview with Kengor on Wednesday’s edition of The Alex Marlow Show podcast, Breitbart Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow highlighted Kengor’s PragerU video on Pol Pot, which Marlow said confirmed his understanding that “the Democrats basically gave us Pol Pot.”....“Democrat policies led to his rise and thus widespread death,” ......

Well, That's How You Know the Dems Knew Biden Was in Rough Shape -  It’s now an open secret: everyone knew that Joe Biden was cooked—even Democrats. We’ve seen Joe’s deterioration in real-time, whereas the liberal media and the president’s allies manufactured this lie that the former president’s mental and physical health was top-notch. That Potemkin village collapsed when Donald Trump bulldozed Biden in the June debate on CNN. Worse, Trump didn’t have to do much; Biden was slow, slurred, and stupid......... Once booted off the 2024 ticket, Joe and his cronies made sure they could do everything they could to hamstring Kamala Harris.............What a selfish clown. Did he wreck things for Kamala? No. She wasn’t an upgrade. Harris was younger but just as stupid and incapable of doing media hits without coming off as totally insane........
 
Major DEI Non-Profit Files For Bankruptcy After Bosses Allegedly Stole Millions in

 

Donor Funds - A major DEI non-profit has filed for bankruptcy after its bosses allegedly stole millions in donor funds. The National Diversity Council (NDC)l filed for bankruptcy earlier this month after its board members filed a lawsuit accusing founder R. Dennis Kennedy and other top employees of siphoning off millions in funds for their own benefit. The lawsuit states:.........

House Handily Defeats Anti-Israel Amendments From Rashida Tlaib- Thursday was a bad day for Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), a particularly anti-Israel member of the Squad. The House passed the DETERRENT Act, also known as the Defending Education Transparency and Ending Rogue Regimes Engaging in Nefarious Transactions Act, which was introduced by Rep. Michael Baumgartner (R-WA). It did so without Tlaib without in favor, though, and without either of her two amendments included in the bill. ..............

Karen Bass' Destroyed Text Messages Have Miraculously Reappeared - Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass is still reeling from the massive wildfires that engulfed the county in January. It’s likely going to be labeled the costliest natural disaster in American history, with damage estimates ranging from $164-250-plus billion. Ms. Bass was not in Los Angeles when the fires broke out on January 7. She wasn’t even in the United States. The mayor was partying in Ghana, celebrating the president’s inauguration, which hardly seems appropriate, especially since this trip was taxpayer-funded. Bass promised she’d never leave the country during her time in the mayor’s office............

NPR CEO's Testimony on Capitol Hill Yesterday Was a Disaster -This might be one of my favorite Congressional hearing exchanges of all time -- or at least within recent memory.  It features Republican Congressman Brandon Gill, a freshman from Texas, and the CEO of National Public Radio, Katherine Maher.  We'll get there, but before we proceed any further, please recall that this is the same Katherine Maher whose long virtual trail of woke, partisan, knee-jerk social media posts caused a stir after she was tapped to take the helm of taxpayer-funded NPR last year.  This clip has also made the rounds, in which she laments our society's "reverence for the truth" as a "distraction" and obstacle to making progress and "getting important things done."  In the hearing yesterday, she tried to claim these comments have been taken out of context, but her point seems fairly straightforward here, and it's certainly interesting coming from someone who leads a newsroom:...........

Fired Biden Holdover Hampton Dellinger Takes Another Loss with Appeals Court’s Latest Order - A federal appeals court on Thursday responded to fired special counsel Hampton Dellinger’s request to dismiss his case as moot after he withdrew his litigation earlier this month.President Trump fired Hampton Dellinger, the Special Counsel for the Office of Special Counsel last month, however, the Biden holdover continued to fight Trump in court and was successful because the case was assigned to a corrupt Obama judge.  The appeals court previously granted a motion to stay Judge Amy Berman Jackson’s order reinstating the Biden holdover.  Following the ruling from the DC Circuit Court, Hampton Dellinger said he was ending his legal fight with Trump............

DOGE

DOGE Says 315,000 Credit Cards Have Been Canceled, Limited by Federal Agencies - The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) said about 315,000 government credit cards have been canceled or limited by various federal agencies under a cost-savings program.  The Elon Musk-affiliated group wrote in a post on Tuesday that “up to [approximately] 315,000 credit cards” were canceled by a number of federal agencies, an increase from about 298,000 cancelations as of Sunday. DOGE said this was after a five-week “pilot program” was undertaken.  Credit card cancelations this week impacted agencies including the Departments of Homeland Security, Interior, Commerce, Treasury, State, Housing and Urban Development, Health and Human Services, Education, Agriculture, and Labor.........
 
Fort Knox? Gold cams! - Let’s face it—we’ve all got the gold bug. When President Trump announced recently that he would conduct an audit of the Fort Knox gold reserve, it was all anyone could talk about.  A friend asked if I thought the gold was still there. I would like to think so. I would like to think military discipline didn’t completely erode under the Obama and Biden administrations. However, time, technology, and the cleverness of rats mitigate against it.  A gold bar weighs 27.5 pounds. How easy would it be to counterfeit a bar, skim-coat it with some gold, and then swap it out for the real thing on the shelf? That’s what some folks imagine has happened. Others think that the physical gold has been lent out, sold, and replaced with worthless currency or just 1s and 0s in some government account......
 
Europe

New report: Netherlands is now euthanizing minors -Medical murder comes for the disabled children. Again. I mean, we’ve been here before, but for some reason, a sizable enough portion of the population refuses to heed the words commonly attributed to Spanish thinker, George Santayana: “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it,” and so we traditionalists, “clinging to” (as Barack Obama might derogatorily say) life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, are left to scream into the void about how today it’s the retarded kids, tomorrow it’s us.

My Take -  Leftism believes in nothing except hate, greed, envy, lust, and the desire to hold power over their fellow man, and more than willing to use violence to tear down anything that stands in it’s way.   All that Hitler stood for and promoted is being embraced in Europe.  As a result, the flawed values of leftism has contaminated the thinking of Europe, and every aspect of European life. Europe is lost, and will really be what Bismarck called it, a geographical designation. And unless something dramatically changes, it will be conquered by Islam.  RK

Yes, really......Excuse me, I need to go duck.  Another economic boom incoming!......

A Reporter Asked AG Bondi About the Signal Story During an MS-13 Presser. He Didn't Expect This Answer. - Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel oversaw a successful law enforcement raid that captured one of the nation’s top leaders of the gang MS-13. This person, 24 years old, had been in the gang for ten years and quickly sharked his way to the top. Based on the documents recovered upon his arrest, he was one of the prominent leaders of this criminal operation. This individual was arrested by federal agents yesterday.........

What Are Dems Trying to Say Regarding the NSA's Secret Sex Chat Fiasco and This Signal Story?- This Signal story involving Pete Hegseth, Michael Waltz, and other top Trump officials has Democrats licking their chops over nothing. This story isn’t going anywhere, and no one is getting fired. So, scream into the void; we’re moving on. It was an unforced error as Waltz, or someone on his staff, accidentally added The Atlantic’s Jeffrey Goldberg into this chat on the encrypted messenger app. Goldberg alleges secret anti-Houthi war plans were divulged. They were not, but the media is going to peddle a lie because the chats were real—their contents are the subject of exaggeration....
 
The Liberal Media Is SIGNALing a lot of Bullcrap Right Now- Only liberal America could be more upset over an encrypted messenger app slip-up than a shambolic exit from Afghanistan that got Americans killed. Democrats think they smell blood in the water, as the media-manufactured fallout from the leaked Signal chat story continues to make the Left all giddy over nothing. .........
 
The Passing Signal Psychodrama - How does this blunder rank with prior diplomatic and military screw-ups?  When we finally learn the full melodrama of the so-called Signal 1-2 day “scandal” of inviting a leftwing, Trump-despising, Atlantic editor Jeffrey Goldberg onto a supposedly secure conference list, involving most of the top Trump security officials, lots of questions need asking and answering.  Most importantly, who exactly had Goldberg’s private number, and ostensibly (in error [?]) could have possibly inserted it into the cleared list of participants in the discussions? Why Goldberg, rather than some random person of some 345 million Americans?...........
 
My Take - The above article was written by Victor Davis Hanson, and as usual he has great insights, and ..... great questions.... questions I've asked, and would love to see answers to them, especially on how this "journalist" got on that list in the first place.  It's been claimed this was a "mistake" by a staffer, and I have no doubt a staffer is responsible, but I questioned whether this was a "mistake" from the beginning.  One thing was clear to me from the beginning, and this was a nothing burger from a corrupt media, and Democrats with the integrity of scorpions.     RK
Voter Rights  
 
Supreme Court Grapples With Louisiana Voting Rights Act Case - The Supreme Court on March 24 grappled with a much-litigated racial gerrymandering case from Louisiana involving two consolidated cases: Louisiana v. Callais and Robinson v. Callais. Gerrymandering refers to the manipulation of electoral district boundaries to benefit a particular party or constituency......

Observations From the Back Row, With News and Views for March 27, 2025

By Rich Kozlovich

The nation is in a third revolution, we really need to get that, and the federal judiciary is leading the opposition.  While Trump won two court battles, it's not over, and there have been victories that were overturned, and the battle is in no way over. 

The DOGE subcommittee chaired by Marjorie Taylor Greene, is going after funding for NPR, PBS, attacking their clear left wing bias, noting there were "87 registered Democrats in its news room, and zero registered Republicans. What are the odds?"  They have the right to spew out all the leftist clabber they choose, but not on the taxpayer's dime, and it isn't like they're hurting for money, Sesame Street Has $559 Million, "$187 million in revenues and a million dollar salary for the CEO", so when they quack about how they Republicans are killing Elmo and Big Bird, it's just quacking.  

There were 70 Christians beheaded in the Congo, and that's wasn't an isolated event.  In June of last year For example, in June 2024, the ADF, which is an Islamist group, slaughtered 150 Congolese civilians, many of whom were Christians", and what do we hear from the media?  Crickets, and claims of Islamophobia.  

But the left and their myrmidons in the media have much bigger fish to fry, like Signalgate, an absolute scandal, and everyone should resign for such a breach of security.  As Vice President Joe Biden illegally had classified documents in his garage, where Chinese nationals may have been able to access was just small potatoes to this.  Except everyone gets it, this is a sham.  Nobody outside D.C. cares about signalgate!  No matter how much the Left rants and froths at the mouth, this is much ado about nothing.

There has been four bright spots I would like to highlight.  

Now, for some less than bright news.  The budget is going to be a constant crisis over the next two years, and hopefully after the mid term elections things will get smoother, but as for now, according to the CBO, the Congress is facing debt default, and the need to raise the debt limit is a tool the Democrats plan to use to get what they want, which I'm sure will include ending DOGE investigations, which if allowed to do what is intended, I believe can cut spending by a trillion dollars by the end of the year.

The Middle East is a disaster, and the demonstrations in Turkey are being called  ‘Street Terrorism,’ by Erdogan, and claims it's coming to an end.  Maybe and maybe not, one thing is clear Turkey wants him out, and this kind of uprising isn't conducive to a settled nation. 

The Houthis have threatened Saudi Arabia and United Arab Emirates with violence because they're upset over, well ________fill in the blank, but Iran is scared and has asked them to tone it down, but that's not going to happen and Trump intends to destroy them.  

Gazans need to be gone, and it's happening, and recently there were demonstrations by Gazans against Hamas.  But make no mistake, it's only because Israel had enough of Hamas's chicanery over hostages and ended the cease fire saying they would only negotiate while destroying Hamas and a lot of Gaza from now on.   It wasn't just a couple of weeks ago they were all dancing the streets while the coffins with the bodies of small Israeli children were paraded thorough the streets.  There are no innocent Gazans, period.    The United Arab Emirates has offered Egypt several billion dollars to take in between five and seven hundred thousand Gazans, and they said no.  Trump said they'll do it or lose billions in aid.

Will there be a new Abrahamic Accords soon?  I believe so, these Arab nations, no matter what they're saying publicly, hate all the fanatical groups, even while giving them money.  Islam is are really mixed bag, and this Arab/Islamic unity claptrap is now and has always been a myth. 

Is there a new Asian bloc in the making?  That's a question that matters, as I subscribe to George Friedman's view the world in an "unanchored" state because the Russo/Ukrainian War is what really ended the cold war since it's clear there is no way Russia could attack Europe and survive.  The focus will turn to the Middle East and Asia.

What I don’t understand is this penchant for America’s leaders to bail out China economically.  It’s the scorpion and the fox story, why is that so hard to get? China will always be China just like Islam will always be Islam, neither of which will stop being who and what they are, but only as long as they can afford to be who and what they are. 
 
I prefer an international policy of bankruptcy for the enemies of America and western civilization, and that would include a lot of western nations, which is a far more effective plan than funding our demise as we’ve been doing since Nixon opened China to world trade.
 
While it's true nations change in order to meet challenges, their history never changes, and is so often the basis for understanding their foundational social paradigms.  China, in spite of their atheism, foundationally believes it has a mandate from heaven to rule the world.
Mao destroyed China’s economy and we were doing just fine, and if it crashed again, we’d do ever better.   Bankrupt tyrants don’t start wars against economic giants. 
 
One more thing, Australia!  It appears China’s sending a lot of immigrants there and will soon be able to have a major impact on their governance, and that appears to be part of Australia’s "Asianization" plans potentially going back to the 1980’s, and the white colonialists will soon be a minority, and it seems to me Australia will be a security threat to American interests since we have defense agreements with them including the sharing of intelligence under the “Five Eyes agreement” with Britain, Canada, New Zealand, and Australia.   As for me, I would share the time of day with the lot of them let alone intelligence.

News and Views for March 27, 2025

China

Reported Arrests of China’s Top Military Brass Indicate Political Crisis, Experts Say - Some analysts have said that the purge suggests that political infighting within the communist regime has intensified.  In what has been described by one China expert as potentially among the “most dangerous developments in the world today,” Gen. He Weidong, the third-in-command of communist China’s People’s Liberation Army (PLA), and several other military leaders, have reportedly been arrested amid the Chinese regime’s ongoing military purge.......

 2 More Senior Commanders Ousted as CCP Continues to Purge Top Brass -  An ongoing purge of top defense personnel by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has ensnared two more high-ranking military commanders.  The two top commanders were removed from their positions at the National People’s Congress (NPC) on Dec. 25, according to a statement from the standing committee of the NPC.........

My Take - For those who don't know the Chinese military is notoriously corrupt, and to a degree a bit semi-autonomous. The understanding between the CCP and the Chinese military has been don't look too closely at what we're doing and we won't interfere with what you're doing.  I thought was, given Xi's penchant for absolute control, that's a duck that just don't quack, and Xi must have hated it.  Well, I'm guessing of course, but it would appear he's found a solution for fixing that.

Exposed: The CCP’s Operation in Minnesota -  The following is a joint investigation by the Breitbart News Foundation (BNF) and the Government Accountability Institute (GAI).  On the 1300 block of North Eustis Street in St. Paul, Minnesota, a ten-minute drive from the Governor’s Mansion, sits a brutalist brick building that houses a secret Chinese Communist Party (CCP) front operation that serves several functions for the CCP — none of them good for the United States............
 
Meet the CCP’s ’Security Liaison Officer Still-active U. of Minn. Email Account Listed on Official CCP Website - The following is a joint investigation by the Breitbart News Foundation (BNF) and the Government Accountability Institute (GAI).  From a single brick building on North Eustis Street, a web of pro-Beijing nonprofits and businesses collaborate with the Overseas Chinese Service Center of Minnesota (Minnesota OCSC), which works directly with China’s United Front Work Department. The Breitbart News Foundation’s joint investigation with the Government Accountability Institute blew the lid off of this network in Part I of this series...........
 
 Experts Tell Congress: As Many as 40,000 Children Trapped in China-Dominated Africa Mining Nightmare - A panel of experts testified to the House Foreign Affairs Committee on Tuesday that Chinese companies mining for “green” energy minerals throughout Africa – particularly in resource-rich countries such as the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), are creating a “catastrophic and unacceptable” situation for locals......
 
The Crockett Conundrum
 
Editor's Note:  Just when you thought it was impossible for anyone to get ahead of AOC in the nitwit brigade, and then along comes Jasmine Crockett, who the Democrats think is Presidential timber.  Normally this would be under the Democrat category, but Jasmine is special, and for now she's getting her own category. RK
 
Jasmine Crockett, Queen of Ghettospeak - I’ve spent a good bit of time in Dixie. After all, for at least ten years I was an exhibitor at fairs, shows and expos throughout the South. I have great memories of my times in the South and had some great friends and acquaintances there.  Although I was clearly a New Yorker, and was even jokingly called a carpetbagger (because I was down there to peddle my wares and make money), I was always treated well and warmly, perhaps even better than some other Northerners because, as some of my friends once explained, “You’re not one of those Damn Yankees who come down here and Y’all us to death!”.... 

 

 
What Jasmine Crockett's Comments on Abbott, Among Other Things, Says About Democrats -Rep. Jasmine Crockett seems to be trying to compete with AOC for the title of dumbest Democrat in the House of Representatives. I didn't think I'd live to see the day that AOC would find someone she could win when comparing intelligence with someone else outside of a special needs classroom, but here we are. ............
Jasmine Crockett Gone Wild: Texas Democrat Claws Her Way to Become Superstar of Broken Party - Jasmine Crockett was not a well-known name in 2023 or really, in 2024, but she is busying herself making headlines with her bombastic and controversial remarks, clawing her way to the top of a party left in complete shambles after the last presidential election.....
 
“It’s Bulls**t!”: Democrat Dimwit Jasmine Crockett Shrieks at GOP for Wanting to Cut NPR and PBS Funding - Democratic Rep. Jasmine Crockett unleashed a profanity-laced tirade at Republicans during a Wednesday hearing on National Public Radio (NPR) and the Public Broadcasting System (PBS). The House Oversight Committee’s Subcommittee on Delivering on Government Efficiency held a hearing titled “Anti-American Airwaves: Holding the heads of NPR and PBS Accountable” during which Republicans questioned continued taxpayer funding for the media outlets. Crockett, who has a history of launching personal attacks on Republicans since she was elected in the 2022 midterm elections, ranted about the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) when recognized by Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia, who chairs the subcommittee..................
 
Jasmine Crockett Calls Harm Caused by Trans Athletes a ‘Distraction’ - Texas Democrat Rep. Jasmine Crockett is completely dismissing the harm caused by transgender athletes, is calling the issue nothing but a “distraction,” and insisting that trans athletes in women’s sports harm no one. Crockett was mainly triggered by the division inside her own party over the issue and insisted that Democrats need to be united in favor of transgender athlete inclusion, Fox News reported.  “In this election, we allowed ourselves to be divided,” Crockett said, scolding her own voters. “We allowed them to distract us, and we allowed them to talk about the trans folk.” ........... For her part. Crockett is emerging as the radical voice of the Democrat Party as the left-wing party finds itself bereft of leadership and a direction forward after being devastated by Donald Trump’s soaring win of a second term in the White House.
 
DEI Rep Jasmine Crockett Starts Cussing & Makes DOGE Hearing About George Floyd | Drew Hernandez -  DEI REP Jasmine Crockett turned a House DOGE hearing about exposing PBS and NPR funding into her own personal circus, unleashing a ghetto profanity-laced tirade. Apparently, “bullsh*t” is her go-to policy critique. She dragged George Floyd’s name into the mess, as if anybody actually cares, proving she’s less a lawmaker and more a ghetto queen fishing for relevance.......
 
Democrats
 
 
CA Dem Defends Health Insurance for Illegals — Even When State Can’t Afford It - On Tuesday’s broadcast of NewsNation’s “Cuomo,” Rep. Brad Sherman (D-CA) discussed the state’s Medicaid shortfall and said that California is “fine.” But “The depression in the stock market will hurt California over the next ten years.” And that the state has to provide Medicaid to illegal immigrants “so that we all don’t get infectious diseases.”......
 
My Take - Okay, so this is a tacit acknowledgement these illegals are bringing in infectious diseases that's now impacting the actual citizens of the United States....did I get that right?  If that's so, and it is, why would we believe the answer is more spending versus keeping them out, and kicking out those who are here illegally.  Or...did I perhaps I miss something in the facts and logic offered?  RK
 
Rep. Pressley Thinks the Trump Administration Is Too White - Ayanna Pressley thinks the Trump administration is too white. She thinks he’s segregating America. “The Trump cabinet is on track to be one of the whitest cabinets in history!” says Pressley.   Because President Trump is removing anti-white DEI ideology from government, she predicts he will deprive black people of care, including veterans.  Ayanna makes no sense.
 
Of AOC, Oligarchs, and Rent-a-Mobs - Thanks to the wonders of modern technology, we are told that the large crowds appearing at the Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez rallies, where they rant about evil oligarchs, consist mostly of career leftist protesters..........
 
Up is down, down is up! - The Democrat party is broken and lies smoldering on the political battlefield.  Liberals today are bewildered and suffering from an acute case of Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) which causes them to embrace one stupid idea after another.  Under the happy Biden presidency, Dems thought it was a super-duper-great idea to open our borders and allow 10 million unvetted illegal aliens to waltz into our country..........
 
Do trans people expect us to abandon common sense? - There’s an awful lot of outrage on the news and social media from transgenders and transexuals.  They’re claiming that President Trump’s support of a two-sexes description of humanity is putting them in danger.  Some are calling for violence against anyone who tries to stop a man, dressed like a woman, from entering ladies’ rooms.  Others are threatening to assault anyone who uses the “wrong” pronoun when addressing them.  We’ve seen videos of confrontations between trans people and those who refer to them by their true sex.  Tik Tok is replete with video warnings and death threats against people who dare to defy this new definition of reality.........if a bearded man, wearing a dress, stockings, and high heels, walks up to you and introduces himself as Mary, you may be risking a punch in the face if you display shock or confusion.  Moreover, if you address him as “Sir,” you could end up dodging bullets.



 
Middle East
 
Mike Huckabee and a turning point is US-Israel relations History is catching up to truth.  With President Donald Trump back in the White House and Senator Marco Rubio now serving as secretary of State, the United States is reclaiming moral leadership on Israel policy.  The Biden administration’s era of equivocation and appeasement is over.  No more diplomatic gymnastics, no more erasing Jewish history with politically expedient language.  The region long mislabeled the “West Bank” is being properly recognized for what it truly is: Judea and Samaria, the biblical heartland of the Jewish people......
 
Europe 

In Denmark, Americans have become 'the deplorables' - Back in September of 2016, then U.S. presidential candidate, Hillary Rodham Clinton, told all Americans that those of us who supported Donald Trump were nothing but a "basket of deplorables" -- unacceptable humans --  who, if they got their way, would bring down all of the U.S.'s institutions, culture, Constitution, and be the start of a wholesale abandonment of American basic values. ...........
 
Irish Government Considers Charging Conor McGregor for Inciting Hate With 2023 Social Media Posts -  Criminal investigators reportedly sent a referral file to federal authorities about McGregor's alleged incitement to hatred.  Irish government entities are considering charging former UFC champion Conor McGregor with hate speech-related violations over social media posts from November 2023.  The Irish Independent said it confirmed that specialist officers within the Irish National Bureau of Criminal Investigation conducted an inquiry and sent a file to Ireland's director of public prosecutions. The DPP conducts criminal prosecutions on behalf of the state and is comparable to the U.S. attorney general................

 Former British Soldier Jailed for Facebook Posts as Rapist Avoids Prison Due to “Overcrowding” - A UK judge has sentenced a former soldier with PTSD to two years in prison for posting "anti-Islamic" messages on Facebook, just months after permitting a convicted child rapist to avoid jail time due to the ongoing prison overcrowding crisis.  A UK judge has sentenced a former soldier with PTSD to two years in prison for posting “anti-Islamic” messages on Facebook, just months after permitting a convicted child rapist to avoid jail time due to the ongoing prison overcrowding crisis...........

MTG Tells UK Reporter to Go Back to Her Country -  “What country are you from?” Rep. Greene asked the Sky News reporter, who responded, “From the UK.”  “Okay, we don’t give a crap about your opinion and your reporting,” MTG told her, adding, “Why don’t you go back to your country where you have a major migrant problem.”  There reporter tried to interject....... “No, no, no, you should care about your own borders,” MTG said.  She asked her about all the women in her country raped by migrants...............

 Who will thaw the Arctic? March 26, 2025 - The Arctic Council comprises eight Arctic states: Canada, Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, the Russian Federation, Sweden, and the United States, plus six Permanent Participants representing indigenous people.  It was established on September 19, 1996, when the founders signed the Ottawa Declaration. So far, this group has done little to develop the region, which has remained a blank spot on the world map.  President Trump recently stepped in, but besides unfriendly takeovers by the U.S. of Greenland and Canada, there is another way that is good for all other A.C. members — and, actually, for every other nation in the world, since it will concentrate on win-win cooperation instead of endless wars.........

 UK Defence Minister: America Has a Point on Europe Being ‘Pathetic Freeloader's - While the default European position on purported leaked messages calling their defence policy pathetic freeloading has been outrage and despair, the United Kingdom accepts “the Americans have absolutely got a case” on lack of military spending on the continent...........

Social Security

Fix Social Security With American Principles -- Ownership - The speed and seriousness with which Donald Trump is shaking up Washington has everyone's head spinning. If the president called me and asked my advice how he should explain to the American people what he is doing, I would say he should tell every American to read our Declaration of Independence............
 
Trump
 
Declassifying Russiagate - My interest in declassifying the JFK papers couldn’t be measured by a microscope. I predicted that there would be nothing there and… surprise, there was nothing there. Not that it would matter if there was anything. Ditto for UFO’s, Bigfoot or anything else you want. Frankly, we live in a world where there’s an audio tape of MLK at a gang rape and it has changed absolutely nothing including his annual day off work. (Yes, it’s an actual thing that happened and it got less headlines than an influencer grabbing an animal for a photoshoot in Australia. Similarly, we have evidence of sexual assaults involving JFK which occasioned less public and media interest than a zoo gorilla being shot to keep it from killing a kid.)
 
Trump’s executive orders have big leftist law firms running scared - In his first term, some of the biggest law firms in America actively worked to destroy the Trump presidency. Now that President Trump is back, he has called out those firms and placed limits on their access to his administration. Suddenly, big leftist law firms aren’t that interested in destroying Trump anymore. As conservatives know, some of the most aggressive action against Trump in his first term came from lawyers at large, leftist law firms, especially Andrew Weissmann, who worked at Jenner & Block between stints working to destroy Trump, the entire firm of Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison (“Paul, Weiss”), and Marc Elias, of the Elias Law Group...........
