Behind the Homeless Surge in California’s High Desert

LOS ANGELES—In the scrubby Mojave desert north of Los Angeles, a sprawling encampment of decrepit RVs sits just off a dirt road separating the city of Lancaster from Los Angeles County’s unincorporated expanse.

In every direction, garbage spreads out like an algae super bloom—beyond that, endless sand and brush, baking in the summer sun.

“Keep your head on a swivel for dogs,” a member of the city’s public safety and emergency response unit tells us. Through the haze, we see two pit bulls and a German Shepherd under a tarp, but they are tethered, too hot to move.

Pro-Hamas Rioters In D.C. Vindicate J.D. Vance’s View Of America

When pro-Hamas rioters on Wednesday ripped down and burned the American flag outside Union Station in Washington, D.C., and defaced nearby monuments with antisemitic, Islamic terrorist graffiti, they unintentionally made a case for what Republican vice presidential candidate J.D. Vance said at the RNC last week: that America isn’t just an idea, but a place and a people with a shared history and a common future.

Victorian Laws Against Priests Meddling in Politics Are Now Needed More Than Ever – To Prevent Imams Doing the Same

Over the last few weeks, we have just seen proud and open Islamic radicals elected into the House of Commons, and apparent race-related riots on the streets of Leeds. At first glance, the increasingly sectarian nature of U.K. politics seems to be a thoroughly modern phenomenon. Yet, surprisingly, there is one specific little-covered aspect of this lamentable trend which has genuine roots in centuries gone by, having its origins directly in the days of old Catholic Ireland – which is odd, as at first glance it appears to centre entirely upon the ever-growing issue of British political Islam.

Mass deportation is the only lasting solution.

Hollywood Shifts as Woke Bombs at the Box Office

This month’s hit movie “Twisters” is full of wonders: pickup trucks take flight, an entire town gets put through nature’s blender. Perhaps most astonishing, however, is what isn’t in it: any mention of climate change.

That wasn’t happenstance. The film’s director, Lee Isaac Chung, said the omission was deliberate. “I just don’t feel like films are meant to be message-oriented,” he told CNN.

On Killing Our Elders

Many years ago, aged 19, I travelled alone out of Kathmandu where I had been living as a bum for some months, my destination being the ancient temple complex of Bhaktapur. On the way, my tuk-tuk driver stopped at a small settlement to buy some bottled water. As I refreshed myself with a cold drink, I looked around at the little village beyond the staring faces of gathering residents. I decided that Bhaktapur could wait a day; I wanted to stay the night there in that village. With the locals, I communicated with big smiles, positive sounding noises, and the universal sign for ‘good’: giving a thumbs-up. Soon, my tuk-tuk driver was heading back to the capital without me, and I had found somewhere to sleep. Some villagers led me up a hill at whose foot their primitive buildings were strewn. A little way up, I was brought to a small hut wherein the elders sat.

Conrad Black: Netanyahu vaporizes the nonsense surrounding Israel’s war with Hamas

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s address to a joint session of the United States Congress on Wednesday was one of the most powerful and significant speeches given by any national government leader in an important forum in some years. It was a forcefully delivered vaporization of the cant and bigotry and (literally) the philistinism of much of the current debate about the war in Gaza and the Middle East generally. The prime minister was only stating the obvious for anyone who thinks clearheadedly about it for a few moments, but he effortlessly and eloquently swept away a great deal of fatuous and malicious nonsense that enshrouds much of the current conflict.

RUBENSTEIN: Should we gladly invite Palestinians to Canada?

“Their presence will simply make life intolerable for Canadians – particularly Jewish Canadians.”

More than 3,000 Gazans to date have been approved for visas to enter Canada, says a Department of Immigration briefing note, just released by Blacklocks Reporter.

“Canada is the only country in the world with a dedicated pathway for extended family members of its citizens or permanent residents in Gaza,” said the May 27 briefing note. Cabinet “recognizes the situation in Gaza and we are being as flexible as possible to help as many extended family member of Canadians affected by the conflict,” it said.

A Trudeau Too Far ~ Canada is disintegrating under the weight of its prime minister’s far-left ideology.

If there’s any Western government that isn’t struggling now, I’ve yet to hear of it. Public debt, inflation, housing shortages, lawlessness, uncontrolled immigration, ruinous environmental regulations, and progressive ideological nonsense worry or infuriate most people. Rather than looking for solutions, governing elites condescend, berate their critics, and even resort to speech codes and censorship. The real problem, as elites see it, is not their own ill-conceived ideas but ordinary people’s failure to accept them. The German playwright Bertolt Brecht joked about this phenomenon during the East German uprising against Soviet policies in 1953. Instead of crushing the dissidents, wouldn’t it be easier for the government to dissolve the people and elect a new one?

Trump’s Teddy Roosevelt Moment

Several commentators have compared the recent assassination attempt on candidate and former president Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania, to the attempted assassination of candidate and former president Theodore Roosevelt in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, during the 1912 presidential election campaign. Trump was shot by a 20-year-old man in his right ear while giving a speech at a campaign rally just a few days before he was scheduled to accept the Republican Party’s nomination for president in Milwaukee. Roosevelt, who was running as the Progressive Party (or Bull Moose Party) candidate, was shot in the chest while acknowledging a crowd of supporters on his way to give a campaign speech in Milwaukee by a 36-year-old German-American bar owner named John Schrank. Trump’s would-be assassin was killed by a Secret Service sniper. Schrank was arrested, pleaded guilty, determined to be insane, and committed to hospitals for the criminally insane. He died in one of them in 1943.

An end to Israel is the only ‘de-escalation’ the pro-Palestine crowd wants

Everywhere you turn in conversations about Israel, Gaza, Jews and antisemitism right now, the long-promised specter of expansion and escalation is… well… escalating. More than nine months into Israel’s war with Hamas, the rhetoric of conflict and activism has escalated into violent confrontations on the battlefields of war, politics and protest.
