The Broken Elbow

This sort of puts the Kyle Rittenhouse affair into perspective. Remember that after his killing spree in Kenosha, a heavily armed Rittenhouse walked unhampered through a convoy of police cars who basically ignored him. By contrast, you can watch the video describing the police execution of Antifa activist Michael Reineoehl here….and what happened to the policemen who gunned him down here. The killing Reineoehl was involved in followed an August 2020 ’invasion’ of Portland by armed Trump supporters. Reineoehl behaved in almost the exact same fashion as Rittenhouse – but his fate was starkly different.

This is difficult to believe but these people, and others like them, will probably make Donald Trump the Republican Party’s challenger to Joe Biden in 2024 – and judging by the collective cowardice gripping Trump’s adoptive party, he could well win. Yesterday, I was phoned by an elderly neignbour who proceeded to tell me in all seriousness that Biden, Hillary, the last two Popes, Francis and Benedict, had all been replaced by doppelgangers, the fake Hillary had killed a child and surgically removed its face for herself to use, America’s treasure was being stolen and the money funneled via a 150-mile undersea tunnel from Rome to secret stores in the Middle East, and so on and so on. She is an avid Trump addict and like millions of Trump’s supporters has no problem accepting that Biden et al stole the 2020 election. It is fashionable to read into all this a deeper neurosis that the White majority which for so long dominated America’s political, economic and social life is on the way out, which it is, and is taking refuge in irrationality. It is easy to dismiss and scorn such people but we should remember that not so long ago in the Germany of the 1930’s, a philosophy every bit as madcap and evil took power, persuading one of Europe’s more sophisticated people to elevate madmen to dizzy and deadly heights. Hitler, of course, had an evil dogma to guide him while Trump cares only for his own ego, wealth and adulation. That does not mean he will not invent one…..

Not very, according to Kieran Allen in this piece in rebel news…..

It is that voters care much more about their kids being taught in school that anti-Black racism is the foundation stone of American society than they do about the planet being destroyed by carbon consumption…….

When they insist on calling creatures like Mancin and the horror from Arizona ’moderates’ when they should be using words like ’right-wing’, ’selfish’ and ’greedy’……and the media are not far behind.

So, now there will be no head of state from either jurisdiction present to ‘celebrate’ NI’s 100th birthday in Armagh. How wonderfully convenient. And so well-behaved of The Irish Times not to point out how the Queen’s sudden indisposition will avoid an embarrassing photo-op in Armagh tomorrow, featuring only one head of state, Michael D having very publicly signalled his absence for obvious political reasons.
