Traditional left wing parties were losing their standing in the face of growing capitalist prosperity. Their only recourse was to import a new generation of voters and ply them with free everything to get them voting as needed. See Merkel et al...

I’m writing a book about exactly this: The Trial at the End of History. My answer is 1989–91. Communism collapsed, and liberalism was left without a serious ideological rival in the West. Fukuyama captured the mood perfectly: “the end of history.” Liberal democracy had won. That victory mattered because liberalism stopped having to defend its premises. It became the background ideology of the West. From there, the autonomous individual, choice and consent increasingly took priority over borders, nation, religion, family, tradition and inherited obligation. The borders opening were not the beginning. They were a consequence of what happened when one ideology thought it had won history.

I'm very fascinated with why Western countries almost simultaneously decided to open their borders and commit civilisational suicide. What was the moment that started it? What happened in modern history where everyone lost their damn minds and decided "You know what? What we need is the entire third world living with us" It's genuinely incomprehensible.

September 22, 1975 America is introduced to one of the most iconic pieces of theme music in television history. Johnny Pearson's instantly-recognizable "Heavy Action" is heard for the first time on ABC's Monday Night Football. MNF's sixth season opens with the Raiders and the Dolphins — a rematch of the previous December's classic "Sea of Hands" AFC Divisional Playoff.

Notice how Zohran Mamdani looks FURIOUS and starts blinking excessively when Trump says that Iran will never have nuclear weapons. Just a reminder that Mamdani is a Twelver Shia Muslim, the exact same sect as the Islamic regime, Hezbollah and Houthis.

The owner of the company at my first job was a huge world traveler. dude had been just about everywhere in the world since the 60’s, but in his older age had bought an RV and was doing more roadtrips with his wife. I remember him telling me once “i’ve been in just about every corner in this world, and I’ll tell you right now, there is no other country on this planet that comes close to the USA when it comes beautiful vistas and things to do”. that always really stuck with me.

No mention that "passenger" was in the basket of the @CitiBikeNYC , and then the quote from @TransAlt , which accepts generous funding from @lyft /@CitiBikeNYC and insists on more infrastructure for Citibike. No wonder this keeps happening. We need honest reporting of facts.

By definition, two children in charge of one motorized vehicle built for one adult to drive is dangerous. We are sacrificing lives to ideology here. RIP.

STRANGER THAN FICTION, Bollywood Edition: Stick with me and read the whole thing here, because it is NUTS. On Saturday, Ted Cruz goes on ESPN’s College Gameday and gets roundly booed. People try to defend Cruz by noting a bunch of people in the crowd seemed foreign. Texas statewide political candidate Bo French posts a photo of a section of the crowd at the Texas-Ohio State game showing a large mass of Indians in one section. Everyone loses their minds and starts flinging poop at each other over mass immigration and Indian assimilation. Three days later, news breaks that NFL all-star TE Travis Kelce was scammed out of a ton of money by an illegal immigrant and Indian scam artist Siddarth Jawahar. Siddarth Jawahar, an illegal immigrant, reportedly attended the University of Texas for several years. And this is the best part: Siddharth Jawahar hired a political consultant named Jeff Roe to help him get a lighter sentence. Recorded jailhouse phone calls captured Roe and Jawahar scheming about how to manipulate the judge in the case. Jeff Roe is one of Ted Cruz’s top political consultants and ran Cruz’s presidential campaign in 2016. Truth really is stranger than fiction.

BREAKING: A hacker reportedly was able to break into IRGC servers, and discovered that the death count from January was in the hundreds of thousands. If true, this would be the largest massacre in such a short period of time in history.

Really good point that gets lost. Cars actually help keep the city afloat fiscally @NYCComptroller It’s just that the car share and delivery app billionaires make no money from people who own their own cars. They want to be the owners of all the cars and make us rent from them. It’s really unfortunate that the public just can’t seem to see this for the money grab that it is. And the reason why: the same billionaire apps are spending millions and millions on lobbying, advertising, funding fake groups like TA, all to take over of our streets for their profit. @NYCMayor and his captured @NYC_DOT are all part of the corruption. @OneCityRisingNY @AFineBlogger @Shebbie4nyc @IsaiahLCarter @susanleenyc @nyc_evsa @gtjco @dylanypyen @stick_dynamite

Throwback to April on the disastrous Park Ave "redesign". Keeping current design was not considered, +the bike lane option was a fait accompli. Yet, they made it even worse. Who in the "public" did they solicit input from? It certainly wasn't office workers.
So typical of the current DOT. It's not should we do this or, nah. It's pick one of two bad ideas, and we already chose the bike lane design, but let's pretend we are listening to the public. And, oh yeah, we have a limitless pool of money somehow.

🧵WATCH THIS FIRST @NazeeMoinian on @marthamaccallum / The Story. Iranian-born. Fled Tehran at the start of the 1979 revolution. She is not guessing. piped.video/watch?v=fmBuaH0C… Nazee Moinian told Martha MacCallum the truth most of Washington still will not say out loud. She was born and raised in Tehran. She left when the Islamic regime seized power in 1979. She watched the videos of the regime opening fire on its own people — women, men, children — and said she was not surprised. Then she asked the only question that matters: If they slaughter their own citizens for demanding freedom, imagine what they will do to everyone else. She called it an international threat. Not a “regional issue.” Not a gas-price story. A defining moment.

Check the games played line before anything else. Henderson appeared in 143 games in 1985 and scored 146 runs, which means he crossed the plate more often than he showed up for work. Almost nobody does that across a full season. He had come over from Oakland in a December trade and slotted in ahead of Don Mattingly and Dave Winfield, which is the ideal arrangement for a man whose entire job is to reach second base and wait. The Yankees won 97 games and finished second to Toronto anyway. Mattingly took the MVP. Henderson finished third and had the better year by a distance.

72% of people from India positively support socialism. Maybe it’s ok to voice alarm at bringing millions of people to the United States from India and it also has nothing to do with race or skin color.
