Look, Barack Hussein Obama/Barry Soetoro has a set of beliefs. Those beliefs are evil. Granted. However, he has a set of beliefs and he acts on them in a decisive manner. He brooks no opposition and is willing to bend, twist and actually break every law prohibiting his conduct to accomplish his goals. He is a bare-knuckled Chicago politician enhanced by the use of the sort of Communist-style thuggery he learned from Frank Marshall Davis and the disciples of the late Saul Alinsky. He is making the most of his last year in office, and he is complete unapologetic for anything that he has done.

The Republican Party’s presumptive nominee, on the [other] hand, Donald John Trump, believes in nothing other than “make America great again,” an empty slogan which I have refuted several times recently. Trump has said that “everything is negotiable,” and this means that he hath no understanding of the concept of truth even on a purely philosophical level.

This is very sad as those who believe that a “President Trump” would do anything to thwart the advance of moral evil in this country is badly deceived. A Trump presidency would be different than that of the wretched, corrupt and contemptuous statist named Hillary Diane Rodham Clinton on some matters. Ultimately, though, the advance of moral evil would continue. The only difference in a Trump administration would be that many of the very voices who are rightly outraged by Obama/Soetoro’s constant constitutional overreach will be muted for fear of angering the naturalist in whom they pinned their hopes. Such is the diabolical trap in which we find ourselves. No country can be made “great again” by those who do the adversary’s bidding for him by advancing or remaining indifferent to evil.   (more…)

I wanted to pass along a link to a book that simply has to be seen to be believed, Queering Bathrooms: Gender, Sexuality, and the Hygienic Imagination by Sheila L. Cavanagh (University of Toronto Press, 2010).  As Wikipedia tells it:

Cavanagh’s most recent book, the groundbreaking Queering Bathrooms: Gender, Sexuality, and the Hygienic Imagination, was a 2011 Finalist for the GLBT Next Generation Indie Book Awards. In 2012, Queering Bathrooms received the CWSA/ACEF Outstanding Scholarship Prize Honourable Mention. Queering Bathrooms “brings to light one of the last remaining forms of discrimination and segregation that goes unquestioned”.[5] Fuse Magazine reviewer Syrus Ware writes that Queering Bathrooms “provides a strong argument for reconsidering the public toilet, making it a must-read for city and urban planners, policy makers, architects and designers. Queering Bathrooms offers important recommendations about the future of bathroom design, suggests areas for future research, and imagines a future in which public toilets are at once luxurious, accessible and welcoming to all human beings”.[6]

  A Blessed Pentecost Sunday! "PENTECOST IS the seal and perfection of the mystery of Easter. If Easter is baptism, Pentecost is confirmation. Easter gives us a new birth; Pentecost brings us to maturity. At Pentecost we reach our full stature, we are brought to maturity. At Pentecost we reach our full stature, we are brought to man's estate, to perfection by the power of the Holy Ghost. The baptism of the Spirit prepares us for heroic deeds, sanctifies our thoughts, purifies our motives. It makes us perfect Christians." (Father Benedict Baur, O.S.B., The Light of the World, Volume 1, pp. 574-576.) [Quoted here.] For a Pentecost Q and A, go here. Pope St. Leo the Great wrote of the mystery of the Holy Ghost: The three Persons in the Trinity are perfectly equal in all things. But although, dearly-beloved, the actual form of the thing done was exceeding wonderful, and undoubtedly in that exultant chorus of all human languages the Majesty of the Holy Spirit was present, yet no one must think that His Divine substance appeared in what was seen with bodily eyes. For His Nature, which is invisible and shared in common with the Father and the Son, showed the character of His gift and work by the outward sign that pleased Him, but kept His essential property within His own Godhead: because human sight can no more perceive the Holy Ghost than it can the Father or the…

HIS latest act of executive overreach lends fuel to the theory that Obama has a history of homosexual activity. The man is a fag. For who but a pervert would order schools across the country to accommodate “transgenderism” by creating unisex bathrooms? It’s true that this is a recommendation from Obama and Attorney General Loretta Lynch, but it comes with the implicit threat of federal denial of funding.

The bathroom war is deadly serious. It is an attempt to sow confusion and doubt in a place where anatomical differences make the natural order of male and female irrefutable. It is an attempt to corrupt children. It’s motivated by hatred. Sodomites are never satisfied. They must wage war against God.

We are the laughingstock of the world. With all our sophistication and advanced technology, we can’t handle the ABC’s of everyday hygiene. This country is sick, disgusting, lost. Remember that Obama’s perversion is widely supported by corporate America. The choice to be male or female is just one more private want, one more extension of capitalistic consumerism. This decision, this child abuse, has everything to do with profit. (more…)

KRISTOR writes at The Orthosphere: Immigration of millions of unskilled workers reduces the price of labor. So for that matter does the entry of women into the workforce. Men used to be able to earn a wage sufficient to support a wife and children. It stands to reason that if you double the supply of labor by adding to it almost all women, you will cut the prevailing wages for most jobs – not perhaps by half, but to such a degree that it will thenceforth take almost two workers to earn the income that had once taken only one. On the demand side, the regulatory and labor environment in the US is so completely whacked, irrational, cumbersome, and costly that it is better, easier, and cheaper, all things considered, for a manufacturer to produce in China than here. So the jobs are going to China. To the far side of the planet, where they speak a different and unrelated language, use a completely alien and wildly inefficient form of writing, and are culturally comfortable with fraud and corruption and cheating and adulteration – with harming their customers. This is nuts. All these massive distortions in the labor market that crush wages happened as a result of stupid government policies. The solution is not to add another layer of policy to correct them, but to delete the problematic policies, root and branch – and, where necessary (not very often) replace them…

ALAN writes:

To glorify the Communist future, one must first blacken the American past and demonize the white men who built American civilization and defended it.  That is why American patriots and heroes are now routinely demonized by the Fascist Left and their well-trained agitators.

John Wayne was an American patriot, exemplified masculine authority, and upheld a code of chivalry in his portrayal of heroic men in many motion pictures.

Those are some of the reasons why he is being demonized by the Left:  Not for his faults, but for his virtues.

Public officials in California who were not yet born when John Wayne was earning the respect and admiration of millions of Americans were outraged that some people wanted to establish a day to honor John Wayne for his life’s work. Why were they upset? Simple:  Because Mr. Wayne had the temerity to imagine (a) that he was living in a free country, (b) that he had a right to express his views, and (c) that he had no obligation to get the approval of Communist-trained agitators before expressing those views.

THERE is a certain type of older woman. She is not very noticeable in a crowd and typically has not done anything much of worldly importance, but she is someone whom I’ve always admired. She usually has gray hair (rarely dyed hair) and something about her matronly face that is distinctive. There’s a visible peace about her — a peace and nobility that is rare in this frazzled world. She is an aristocrat of the earth. After many years of working in the garden, she has acquired a knowledgeable intimacy with plants and a confident dominion over them that together suggest an overall wisdom about life, as if she herself is rooted in place. But then who could be lost or alienated with so many friends — friends who disappear in the winter (except for the few brought inside) and then always, without fail, return in the spring. There is never a spring without them, never a May in which they cannot be counted on to assert their remarkable individuality and mute tenderness. Everything else may change. Other friends die and never return. Other friends move away. But these always return, often different plants, it’s true, but always the same nevertheless. Their loyalty is positively shocking.

THIS AD may be a perfect illustration of our fraudulent monetary system, which renders what is fertile infertile and what is infertile (money) fertile. Jamie Dimon, president of JP Morgan Chase, will be paid $27 million this year for, among other things, increasing debt peonage. And as if that isn’t enough, his company psychologically castrates American men by promoting “transgenderism.” (The commercial is ambiguous, but everyone knows the subtext. And don’t bother writing to Chase to complain. They don’t give a hoot what you think.)

It is often said that usurers — those who charge interest on loans — deserve payment for their loans because of the opportunities they lose by not using money in another way. But that assumes that they would make their money increase another way. It also assumes they have actual money to lend.

In fact, most bank loans are made with money created through the accounting deception known as double-entry book-keeping. As Colin McKay writes:

All of the ‘money’ that we believe ourselves to own, and that we circulate daily among ourselves in payment for goods, services, and investments, is neither ‘money’ in true substance, nor are we the owners of it.

The reality of the system is this. Bankers create IOUs out of nothing. These digital tokens represent our IOU to the bank. Then—by a clever accounting trick—they let us borrow their IOUs as ‘money’.

Usury is money magick, as McKay argues. It’s an inversion of values. It destroys the natural order. The inversion of male and female follows as night follows day. In the manufactured chaos of sexual confusion, the indebted may never realize they’ve been robbed. (more…)

PATRICK BUCHANAN wrote in a recent column:

No matter who wins in November, there is no going back for the GOP.

Can anyone think the Republican Party can return to open borders or new free-trade agreements like NAFTA?

Can anyone believe another U.S. Army, like the ones Bush I and Bush II sent into Afghanistan and Iraq, will be mounted up and march to remake another Middle East country in America’s image?

Desert Storm and Operation Iraqi Freedom are history.

What the Trump campaign revealed, as Republicans and even Democrats moved toward him on trade, immigration and foreign policy, is that Bush Republicanism and neoconservatism not only suffered a decisive defeat, they had a sword run right through them.

They are as dead as emperor-worship in Japan.

The death of Bush Republicanism may be a hankering in search of a desire.

Communism hadn’t died in 1989. The baton or gavel (or hammer and sickle) had merely been passed on to other brigades (cadres) in the instance of cultural Marxists who had sapped their way into education decades (many decades) earlier.

What may seem, at first glance, a cadaver, is more likely a zombie – like Schrödinger’s cat, dead and living; and like the modern though not yet, seemingly, fully evolved anthropocene leech – blood sucking. Golems and trolls (and neocons – whatever their moniker de jour) are never gotten rid of – never. Short odds that the greatest likelihood is a re-branding and a younger hip (hep) cohort steps up as vanguard – meaning Establishmentarian Republicanism may be sacrificed in name only and an ilk, or three, of Bill Kristols exiled – otherwise, SNAFU.

Never one to stand in the way of progressive nomenclature I might suggest, up from Neoconservatism – Meliorism. Who could not stand proud and puffed as a Meliorist? (more…)

MICHAEL RUSKIN writes: U.S. President Barak Obama recently released information giving insight into the type of appalling behaviour the Russians are carrying out in Syria. Following the liberation of Palmyra, St. Petersburg conductor, Valeri Gergiev, thought up the idea of taking the Symphony Orchestra of the Mariinsky Theater there to perform a concert of Bach, Shchedrin and Prokofiev in the Roman Amphitheater. This was the first performance at the UNESCO site since the theatre was used by ISIS to hold public executions. “I can assure the public we would have brought in Madonna and Beyoncé to perform instead. There would have been a  strong insistence that the music for such an event should  reflect the values which we think are important and worthy of promoting. It’s why we are invading countries and starting coups and wars,” Obama [should have] concluded while speaking from the White House.   When a reporter asked how the U.S.A. could have liberated Palmyra as it was surreptitiously backing Daesh through its Saudi Allies, the president [should have] said that it didn’t matter, “What’s important is public perception and we’re good at manipulating that.”

FROM Henry Makow: Our political and cultural "leaders" are accomplices in a plot to re-engineer humanity to serve the Judeo-Masonic central banking cartel. Wars, terrorism, depressions, political and social change, entertainment and fads are all contrived to gradually bring about an Orwellian police state. Dr. [Richard] Day says politicians are manipulated "without their even knowing it." Their failure to protect us from this Satanic conspiracy is a betrayal of the first order. We have to alert the sincere ones and reach soldiers and police too. Civilization hangs in the balance. We are in real danger and should prepare for the worst. Progressives and Leftists need to learn that "progress" and "change" actually refer to totalitarian world government. This is "the change they believe in." (2004)  The "Hope and Change" (2012). Dr. Day said in 1969, "people will have to get used to constant change." Our society and culture are a fraud based on one central fraud, the monopoly over government credit in the hands of Cabalist private bankers. They are using this power to extend their monopoly over every aspect of our lives by manipulating world events and social behavior. The only way to save civilization from failure is to nationalize the Central Banks.

The bathroom wars are not new. In the mid-1980s, I studied comparative literature in the graduate program at UCLA.

Although Royce Hall was one of the four large structures of Royce Quad, the original 1929 campus, its third floor was a fairly remote place.
