DOUBLE STANDARDS: You know the saying … if they didn’t have double standards, they would have no standards at all.
ILHAN OMAR: The home of Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn, was raided early Monday morning by Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) in connection with a criminal fraud investigation into the Somali-born congresswoman’s immigration paperwork.
IRAN: Iran-backed Houthis from Yemen have claimed responsibility for an October 10 terror attack on a passenger terminal at the international airport in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. At least 13 were killed and more than 300 injured. A spokesman for the Saudi-led Arab coalition forces said the attack “constitutes a full-fledged war crime according to the Customary International Humanitarian Law.”
MAHA: [16:17] – If you are concerned about arterial aging, this video has a lot of good information.
MAMDANI SUCKS: Six years ago, Zohran Mamdani flipped the bird at a statue of Christopher Columbus. CLICK https://x.com/NYCMayor/status/2108968378543341644 [2:44] to listen to him this week when, as mayor of New York City, he marks Italian Heritage Month by extolling Vito Marcantonio who, a Queens councilwoman of Italian descent, says was “an obscure Italian-American communist who was against America’s participation in World War 2 and was investigated by the FBI for his ties to the international communist party.”

MIDTERMS: [16:58] – Democrats have been hiding their politicians’ infirmities for a lot longer than Joe Biden.
Democrat President Woodrow Wilson suffered a severe stroke on October 2, 1919, and remained incapacitated until the end of his presidency in March 1921, nearly 17 months. During that time, his wife essentially ran the country.
Democrat President John F. Kennedy was diagnosed with Addison’s disease, a serious adrenal disorder, in 1947, long before he ever ran for office. He and his cronies kept it and his other health issues a secret.
NEW YUCK SUCKS: between Jan. 20, 2025, and Sept. 14, 2026, NYC ignored 14,916 requests by ICE to detain illegals who had been arrested in connection with 47,750 criminal charges and convictions. Among these were homicides, sexual assaults, drug offenses, kidnapping, weapons offenses, and assaults. Instead of holding these scumbags in jail until an ICE agent can come get them in a safe and controlled environment, New York’s sanctuary policy dictates they be released into the community.

UK: CLICK https://x.com/oldspeak_books/status/2108482972139552920 [3:16] to hear a woman respond to a police officer who was sent to her house to warn her about her social media content. Here’s part of the exchange:
Woman: I’ll post what I want because it’s a free country.
Cop: To a point.
Woman: To what point?
Cop: Well, I’m not going to start shouting it … I suggest you look it up … I’m advising you to be aware of what you’re putting on your page. Because if it continues and we can prove there are offenses there, the next time we come back we can have conversation at the police station, okay?
I did look it up and found that Brits have only “a qualified right to freedom of expression under the Human Rights Act 1998 (incorporating European Convention on Human Rights Article 10), allowing significant restrictions for things like hate speech, incitement, public order, and online safety, leading to ongoing debates about censorship and limitations compared to the US approach.”
I looked at the woman’s feed and found what I think is likely the inciting post @ https://x.com/oldspeak_books/status/2107145467087716572. It links to a video made by a man mocking his newborn, about which the woman wrote, “This made me weep.” The comments got harsh, but seriously … they were just comments on a social media account, not Molotov cocktails thrown into someone’s house.
