Ayn Rand once described a highly regulated “mixed economy” — a mixture of free enterprise and socialist controls — as a society in the process of committing suicide.
Now, in 2025: The probable, impending election of an open Communist totalitarian, an advocate of Sharia Law and Muslim savagery who seeks to close the city’s prisons, let violent criminals roam without bail, and who also plans to take control of the city’s food supply — what do you call this? I call it a ruthless suicide-homicide. America has never seen anything close to this. And this nasty SOB’s platform is al Qaeda, Stalin and Hitler rolled into one.
And, worst of all: this is now the Democratic Party. All high profile Democrats in office enthusiastically support this wannabe monster. One rigged national election, and this is all of America. If this creep wins, President Trump will have to invade New York City, because this man is at war with every individual human freedom that exists.

Nearly three and a half million foreign-born people are claiming welfare benefits in Britain, according to official data obtained by the Centre for Migration Control.
Despite longstanding attempts to convince the public that mass migration would benefit the British economy, millions of migrants are draining public finances through universal credit and other welfare schemes.
Fitting, and logical: Muslims believe that infidels (i.e., anyone who chooses not to be Muslim) should either be put to death, or enslaved. Since I’m pretty sure most of the highest taxpayers in Great Britain aren’t Muslim, they get to spend a sizable portion of their lives economically supporting people who belong to a violent cult hellbent on their annihilation.
Don’t you love progressivism?

Catherine Connolly, another European ultra-left-winger, has won the presidency in Ireland, in a landslide.
The Irish presidency is mainly a ceremonial role. The new Irish president is a darling of the almost exclusively far-left international media. As best as I can tell, the victorious old shrew hates Christianity (in Ireland, no less), possibly hates Jews even more, loves beheading and child-murdering Muslims; she hates Western values, she espouses socialism and calls it “democracy,” loathes Trump; and unlike many leftists these days she upholds the pretense of the peace and brotherhood of mankind, while proposing that such virtues be enforced at gunpoint.
On the whole, nothing new for leftism and nothing new for Europe. She pulled off a seemingly big victory thanks to young voters, because young people everywhere have been brain-soaked with the stupidest version of collectivism yet seen (the “woke” version), and apparently are gullible and ignorant enough to think this horsecr*p is something new.
What else can I say? We are not living in the Renaissance.
