Just before Christmas, I reported that we would be filing an appeal in the case of Brimelow vs. New York Times, our libel action against the New York Times for smearing me as an “open white nationalist” among other things. That appeal was filed; our brief is here. The New York Times responded; our reply is here.
Significantly, Federal District Court Judge Katherine Polk Failla found that the New York Times’ smear in the original January 15, 2019 article—that I am an "open white nationalist"—was a factual allegation, and thus potentially libelous. But she then claimed that the New York Times’ later "stealth edit," removing the word “open” (and adding a hyperlink to the discredited CultMarx vigilante gang the Southern Poverty Law Center), provided sufficient "context" to let it off the hook.
In fact, of course, the New York Times still arrogantly refuses to acknowledge this correction in print, despite making such acknowledgements a point of honor in its published code of conduct. So no reader dependent on the hard-copy edition of the newspaper will know it has been made. And the defamation remains, uncorrected, in e.g. the Congressional Record.
Earlier: Joe Biden's Speech: Lord, Give Me The Confidence Of A Mediocre White Man
Joe Biden may not be a radical socialist, but he is doing the best imitation of one this writer has lately seen.
After enacting a COVID-19 relief package of $1.9 trillion in March without a single Republican vote in Congress, Biden proposed a jobs and infrastructure program of $2.2 trillion. He has now added an "American Families Plan" of another $1.8 trillion.
In his speech to the joint session of Congress, Biden laid out its contents. The Washington Times relates:
"Mr. Biden's latest spending package includes $225 billion for child care, $225 billion for a national paid family and medical leave program, $200 billion to extend bolstered Obamacare subsidies in his $1.9 trillion coronavirus relief package, $200 billion for universal pre-K, and $109 billion for two years of free community college for all Americans."
While Biden's $6 trillion in total spending is spread over several years, it represents a claim on the nation's wealth equal to 30% of GDP—a figure comparable to FDR's New Deal and LBJ's Great Society.
One hundred days into his term, our oldest president is seeking to become a transformative progressive president in the FDR mold, and he is betting his presidency he can bring it off.

The American Ruling Class is deliberately attacking the country’s core demographic group at just the same time that it is picking fights with major powers like Russia, China, and even Turkey. The Biden Administration is demonizing whites as the main domestic threat and is developing a complicated racial caste system that punishes whites for their mere existence. Currently, an indebted, belligerent, imperialist U.S. is being propped up by naïve, well-meaning whites. But unless whites are treated better within this bizarre postmodern imperium, they will cease to identify with it and will focus on building alternatives here at home.
Of course, we must give credit where credit is due—Joe Biden is supposedly going to end America’s longest war, something President Trump tried but failed to achieve [Biden tells Americans ‘we cannot continue the cycle’ in Afghanistan as he announces troop withdrawal, by Anne Gearan, Karen DeYoung, and Tyler Pager, Washington Post, April 14, 2021]. Yet even this claim requires skepticism. Biden’s action leaves open a door for renewed commitment if there is violence this spring [Joe Biden Isn’t Ending the War in Afghanistan, by Branko Marcetic, Jacobin, April 16, 2021].
However, even bringing the troops home is certain to be coupled with a movement to bring Afghani “refugees”—and their resentments and grievances—to America [The US Must Help Afghans Who Helped It, by James Schwemlein and Earl Anthony Wayne, The Diplomat, April 8, 2021]. To make a comparison to black Americans’ “Double V” campaign in World War II, symbolizing Victory in war and increased Civil Rights, white Americans today get to suffer a “Double L”—losing wars overseas and Constitutional rights at home.
The unwinnable war abroad ends in a debacle that will probably bring the Taliban back to power and saddle America with refugees. Those who think such refugees will be filled with gratitude need only reference our experiences with the Hmong, the endless waves of Central Americans, or, for that matter, Rep. Ilhan Omar. Bottom line: we have been defeated abroad and occupied at home.

Larry the Cable Guy made the phrase "Git-R-Done" his signature. A new breed of young Republicans and populists has its own message for their establishment elders: Get it right.
This new strategic alliance refuses to clap like trained GOP seals at any shiny vehicle masquerading as a free speech rescue because their very lives and livelihoods are on the line. This is not a drill.
In Florida, conservative GOP Gov. Ron DeSantis has earned lavish praise and attention for backing anti-censorship legislation that he claims will reign in Big Tech's power to exercise "clear viewpoint discrimination." Among the DeSantis-backed statehouse bill's key features: fines of between $25,000 and $250,000 per day for social media platforms that "censor, shadow ban, deplatform, or apply post-prioritization algorithms" to Florida candidates, users or residents; a ban on public contracts with social media entities found guilty or civilly liable for antitrust violation; and requirements to disclose standards and definitions used by the tech overlords to censor and stifle dissidents.
Mexicans Still Entering The U.S.
In recent years, illegal entries by Mexicans decreased even as illegal entries by Central Americans massively increased. In fact, as U.S. Customs and Border Protection reported in 2019, 70 percent of the illegals apprehended at our southern border were from the Northern Triangle of Honduras, Guatemala, and El Salvador [Press Briefing—CBP Release Fiscal Year 2019 Migration Stats, U.S. Customs and Border Protection, March 5, 2019]. Before the recent surges from Central America, 70 percent of apprehended illegals were Mexican.
That led to a remarkable achievement when President Trump persuaded Mexico to crack down harder on illegals passing through its territory, which resulted in fewer arriving to our border…until the Biden Rush began.
Still, Mexican emigration to the U.S. never ended, and appears to be increasing now for two reasons: poverty and crime:
Migration of misery continues in Mexico: economic shortage, lack of employment, stagnant local economies and conditions of food poverty in the five poorest states of the country pushed at least 419,000 Mexicans to migrate to the United States in the last five years. That’s 27% of the 1.5 million Mexicans from all over the country who, for various reasons, have migrated to that nation in that period, according to the National Population Council.
[En cinco años migraron a EU 1.5 millones de mexicanos (“In five years 1.5 million Mexicans migrated to the United States”), by Rafael Lopez, Milenio, April 19, 2021]
The five poorest states in Mexico—Veracruz, Puebla, Guerrero, Oaxaca and Chiapas, all with large Indian populations—are “some of the principal exporters of migrants in the past half decade,” Milenio’s Lopez reported. The concept of “migrant exportation” is often used in the Mexican media and by politicians to describe emigration.
But not just poor states export “migrants.” Lopez continues
[O]ther states with good economic performance, but a marked deterioration in security conditions have also contributed to the Mexican migratory wave in recent years.
This is the case of Guanajuato … 183,000 of its inhabitants went to reside in another nation from 2016 to 2020. This means that for five years, 101 emigrated daily.
Picturesque Guanajuato, which I have visited several times, is the home state of former President Vicente Fox. Traditionally a popular tourist destination, Guanajuato has been suffering a major crime wave and increase in violence in recent years. Warring gangs have given it the country’s highest murder rate.
That murder rate is coming to America. And if Mexican emigration to the U.S. increases, the Mexican government will continue meddling in U.S. politics.
"How many legs does a dog have if you call his tail a leg?" asked President Abraham Lincoln, who answered his own question:
"Four. Saying that a tail is a leg doesn't make it a leg."
And Congress' saying that D.C. is a state would equally contradict truth and reality, as our nation's capital lacks all of the attributes of a 51st state of the Union.
Whence came our capital of Washington, D.C.?
The city was carved out of Maryland and Virginia in 1790, which voted to cede 100 square miles on the Potomac for a capital city of the United States to become the domicile of the federal government.
In 1846, Virginia's share of the land, some 32 square miles, was ceded back. What was left was today's Washington, D.C., of 68 square miles.
Is that sufficient for a state of the Union? Only if one wishes to change the character and composition of that Union.
