New Puppy, No Sleep, No Energy, No Blogging

 Meet Buddy!

Wife kitteh wanted a younger dog that she can take for walks so she gets more exercise. Lily and Leah, our chihuahua-mixes, are roughly 70 years old in human years. Walking? No. How about going back to bed after a snack?

Buddy is 11 weeks old and we were told he was a spaniel-lab mix. If that dog has any spaniel in him, I'm the King of France. He looks more like a pit bull to me. Still, his paws aren't that big, so whatever he is, I can't see him getting over 40#.

I hope.

In the meantime, while the girls sleep with us as they always have, Buddy sleeps in a crate downstairs. Well, that is until he wakes up and doesn't want to be in the crate. This morning, that happened at 0230. Bark bark bark bark bark bark bark bark bark bark bark bark bark bark bark bark bark bark bark bark bark bark bark bark bark bark bark bark bark bark bark bark...

I finally got up and jumped on that particular canine grenade at 0245. Oof.

I can't wait for him to get a bit older so he's had all his shots and we can safely take him to the local dog park to get his ya-yas out.

Until then, zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Thinking 5 Minutes Into The Future

 ... is where the British authorities are right now.

I know this is my own post, but while I was able to download the video and post it myself on X, I was not able to embed the original post with it for some unknown reason.

British authorities are thinking about 5 minutes into the future. Here, @Dominic2306 describes how they are terrified of racial riots, but at the same time, they aren't stopping the boats of migrants crossing the channel who will make riots even more likely in the years to come. pic.twitter.com/oPKiPi0kZK

As illegal immigration in the form of military-age African and Muslim men continues apace, roughly 1500 per day across the Channel, the authorities are wetting themselves in fear of ethnic unrest. Because they cannot bring themselves to violate the Euro laws on granting asylum to "refugees," they are guaranteeing racial unrest in the future and only making it worse when it comes. As the folks in the video below say, Britain is probably already past the tipping point.

The failure of progressive theology - diversity is our strength - is patently obvious now, but the solution - ethnic repatriation - is impossible without the one thing the authorities fear the most, ethnic unrest.

The Balkan Model

After the collapse of tyranny in Yugoslavia, the Balkans fell into just this kind of racial fighting. The place was wrecked, tens of thousands died and the country split apart along racial homeland lines.

Britain won't be so fortunate, if fortunate is the right word. There are no racial homeland lines in England because the progressives imported and then scattered the combatants. It won't be enough to have a limited conflict which results in the Africans getting Cornwall, the Muslims getting London and the southeast and the British getting the rest. In England, the migrants own the cities and the British own the countryside.

This is going to be much more like Lebanon in the 1970s than the Balkans in the 1990s.

Finally, since the British are probably less aggressive and willing to take losses than the Muslims who are promised paradise if they die in Jihad, it is far more likely that once the fighting breaks out, those British who can escape for America or elsewhere will do so.

Exit Question

Who will the authorities back if it comes to violence? To date, all of the evidence points to them supporting anyone but the British.

Trapped In A Fantasy

This is an absolutely fantastic essay describing the mix of delusions and European laws that have trapped the British government into inactivity in the face of African and Muslim invasion.

Inside the intelligence services, special forces (themselves under attack from the Cabinet Office and NI Office as they operate as our last line of defence, see below), bits of Whitehall, and those most connected to discussions away from Westminster, there is growing, though still tiny, discussion of Britain’s slide into chaos and the potential for serious violence including what would look like racial/ethnic mob/gang violence, though the regime would obviously try to describe it differently. Part of the reason for the incoherent forcefulness against the white rioters last year from a regime that is in deep-surrender-mode against pro-Holocaust marchers, rape gangs and criminals generally, is a mix of a) aesthetic revulsion in SW1 at the Brexit-voting white north and b) incoherent Whitehall terror of widespread white-English mobs turning political and attracting talented political entrepreneurs. They’re already privately quaking about the growth of Muslim networks. The last thing they want to see is emerging networks that see themselves as both political and driven to consider violence. Parts of the system increasingly fear this could spin out of control into their worst nightmare. In No10 meetings with the Met on riots, I saw for myself a) the weird psychological zone of how much order rests not on actual physical forces but perceptions among a few elites about such forces that can very quickly change, and b) how scared the senior police are at the prospect of crucial psychological spells being broken. We can see on the streets that various forces have already realised the regime will not stop them. What if this spreads? Whitehall’s pathology has pushed it to the brink of this psychological barrier and many of them know it.

Italics in the original. It is written by a fellow with a lot of experience within the highest circles of the British government and with personal knowledge of the meetings that have taken place over the years.

I've been wondering how to approach this blog post and keep coming up against the sheer magnitude of the task so here I will provide come ideas that give you an idea of the trap the British elites have sprung on themselves. I've been discussing this with AI and we came up with this decent summary of the situation.

1. Collapse of Order and Growing Threat of Violence

• Britain's institutions are crumbling and chaos is spreading.
• Intelligence services and parts of the military fear an outbreak of serious violence, including racially charged gang warfare.
• The government’s uneven handling of unrest—harsh on white rioters, lenient on Islamist extremists—is driven by aesthetic class bias and fear of political awakening among white English networks.

2. Dysfunction of the Political and Administrative Elite

• Whitehall and Westminster (SW1) are in denial, trapped in emotional decision-making.
• No10 (Prime Minister's office) has become incapable of executing strategic policy due to bureaucratic power capture by the Cabinet Office and National Security Secretariat (NSS), which is opaque and unaccountable.

3. Immigration, Lawfare, and Incompetence

• The regime has encouraged uncontrolled immigration, favoring the unskilled from volatile regions while punishing skilled migrants.
• The Human Rights Act (HRA) and European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) have tied the hands of the government and military.
• Legal constraints prevent stopping small boat crossings from France, despite military and legal consensus that it is operationally simple.

4. Media and Elite Delusion

• The media are complicit, suppressing information and spinning narratives to hide the realities of immigration and legal absurdities.
• Political leadership is marked by “superposition personalities”—leaders caught between self-deception and dishonesty.
• The public is enraged and disillusioned by elite hypocrisy and policy failures.

Emphasis mine. This will provide a backgrounder for future posts.

The things to note is that the European Union's ECHR is still being allowed to govern Britain's approach towards the daily amphibious assaults on their coasts. Over 1000 illegals are arriving every day by small boat. The Royal Navy could stop this immediately, but the British leadership won't take that action because it violates the ECHR.

The people voted for BREXIT, but the elites can't bring themselves to take the next step and simply ignore the ECHR. All the while, their country is being overrun by Africans and Muslims. It's slow-motion, suicidal madness.

British universities are no less anti-white than our own, obsessing over decolonialization and the moral primacy of the "marginalized." The elites in Britain are shot through with this sadomasochistic lunacy.

On Battle Damage Assessments In Iran

I've seen all the kerfuffle around our bombing of the Iranian nuke sites and people waving their arms and shouting that we didn't do all that much damage. I find that almost impossible to believe.

The combined intel capabilities of Israel and America are unmatched in the world. The Israelis have Mossad agents on the ground in Iran and our SIGINT and satellite intel are terrific. I'd bet a large stack of money that there were UAVs floating around over all of the target sites as well. 

Israel has an existential interest in making sure the Iranian nuke effort was wiped out. The attacks on Iran were a one-off. Israel isn't going to be given permanent carte blanche to bomb Iran.

Further, Iran was flat on its back. It couldn't defend itself at all. There was no reason we couldn't have sent the B-2s back several more times and let Israel smack Iran around for another week. We had a pair of carriers in the area who never got off a single air strike.

In order for me to believe that we didn't obliterate Iran's nuke facilities, you'd have to convince me that the Israeli and US intel operations whiffed on their damage assessments after the strikes. There is no way Israel would have called off its attacks or even moved to secondary and tertiary targets, like they did near the end, if they had thought Iran still possessed a significant portion of its uranium enrichment capabilities.

I don't care what a handful of leakers tell the press, I simply don't believe it. I mean, it's possible that the Iranians outfoxed us all, but that seems to be the longest of longshots.

Fordow is gone, man, solid gone.

When You Come To A Fork In The Road, Take It, But First, Run Over Andrew Cuomo

 OK, I admit, that's a long blog post title. Still, it works.

Cuomo lost the Democratic primary for mayor of NYC to a Marxist Muslim with absolutely zero management experience. Cuomo, former governor of NY, should have turned Mamdani into roadkill, if resumes counted for anything.

But resumes don't count for anything when there's a major fork in the road and your candidacy represents going straight, right into a tree.

IMO, these days, every election has as one of its dominant issues this question: Should the government get much larger or much smaller? Where we are right now is untenable. We are not, as Jefferson Davis wanted to do for the slaves, taking care of people from cradle to grave. We are also not, as Thomas Sowell might argue, allowing people to make their own choices and live with the consequences.

We have found the middle point - trying to do a whole lot for citizens while running up a crushing debt because we won't tax those same citizens appropriately. That's a middle point that, quite obviously, is unstable.

NYC, California, Los Angeles, Seattle, Portland, Baltimore, Chicago, insert your favorite blue state or blue city here, have balance sheets that look a lot like this.

No one, outside of innumerate white, liberal women, thinks this is sustainable. We either need to do the full Mamdani / Davis and turn everyone into proles / slaves or we need to start moving back towards Thomas Sowell. You can't just stand in the middle of the road shouting, "Stay the course! Everything is fine! We just need competent leadership and all will be well."

Cuomo tried just that and the college-educated, read: college indoctrinated, deserted him and voted for Jeff Davis. It will always be like that. This is the future of the Democratic Party. You can't stay in the middle of the road and get run over like a possum, you're going to have to make a choice. The activists are plumping for slavery to Massa in the Big Statehouse. They've got the energy and enthusiasm.

If you're a centrist Democrat, you're going to have to argue that we need to take the other choice at the fork in the road.

And Now New York

 Here are the freely elected mayors of Chicago and Los Angeles.

Brandon Johnson, Chicago.

Karen Bass, Los Angeles.

And now, the frontrunner for the mayor of New York City.

Zohran Mamdani, New York.

Well.

All of them have had strong support from white, college-educated voters. None of them are people you'd choose to run even a modest-sized business. Brandon is continually getting in hot water for his black supremacist statements. Karen Bass' incompetence led to a decent portion of her city burning down and the glacially-slow rebuild is precisely what you'd expect from, well, a Karen Bass administration.

While the other two are so incompetent that they don't even know they're incompetent, Mamdani is in a class by himself when it comes to inexperience and incompetence. As far as I can tell, he's never managed anything real. No businesses, no government entities, nothing. He does know how to run a modern campaign, though. Hats off to him for trouncing a well-funded opponent who was the very model of a politician from 2010.

Going back to the white, college-educated voters, seeing Chicago, LA and New York all in the grips of race-crazed socialists is about what you'd expect if you allowed the far left to take over your education industry. This is where Whiteness Studies, DEI and Marxist economics leads. The longer a person stays in school, the more indoctrination they get, so it's no surprise that the super-smart set plumped for idiots like these.
