The statement “Being a Democrat is a mental disorder” is increasingly ringing true as elected Democrats screech that their political opponents are as ideologically dangerous as Nazis, thereby inspiring their mentally deranged followers to violently attack them.
Democrats spewing anti-ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) rhetoric and condemning the arrests and deportations of dangerous illegal immigrant criminals are inciting their unhinged followers to turn their hateful speech into violent murderous actions.
Failed VP candidate and Democrat Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz bellowed that ICE is Trump’s “modern-day Gestapo” during a May 18 commencement speech at the University of Minnesota law school.
In May, Democratic New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez encouraged her party to storm ICE facilities and claimed that federal immigration officials are “breaking the law.” She has repeatedly called to abolish ICE and in May said that it is a “rogue agency that should not exist.”
While calling to “abolish” ICE, Democratic Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar cited a debunked story which alleged that ICE agents held a -year-old autistic girl outside of her home in Massachusetts to “pressure” her father into surrendering. NBC News later issued a correction and acknowledged that it had “mischaracterized” ICE agents’ activities.
U.S. Representative Pramila Jayapal (D-Washington) called ICE a “terrorist force” in a July social media post, drawing outrage from law enforcement supporters and immigration officials.
How can Americans ignore how much the Democrat’s vile speech is fueling this ongoing wave of atrocities? Democrats offer nothing except pampering lawbreakers, defunding the police, protecting illegal aliens, and encouraging their followers to attack federal and local law enforcement officers.
Their ineptitude and hateful words are followed by violent actions by their followers. They forced the shutdown of the entire federal government because they want to provide taxpayer funded health insurance to illegal aliens, even those guilty of violent crimes.
The contrast between Republicans and Democrats couldn’t be more stark
While Charlie Kirk’s mourners sang hymns and his widow forgave the killer, the Democrat playbook says to destroy what they oppose, silence those they hate, then cry oppression when consequences arrive. They mistake freedom of speech for freedom from consequences, believing their rage justifies any action while demanding immunity from judgment.
The list of Democrat malcontents is lengthy, and a continuous stream of vicious blather is spouted daily by these obsessed violent loons. It’ll only end when their constituents wise up and defeat the haters at the ballot box.
However, that day doesn’t appear close. A recent poll from YouGov says that 34 percent of those who are “very liberal” or “liberal” believe that political violence can be justified to achieve goals and to celebrate the death of a public figure is fine
The Democrat party is in a very dark place.

California’s Out Of Gas: California’s far left Democrat lawmakers, led by slick wannabe presidential hopeful Gavin Newsom, have sputtered to an abrupt halt, suddenly realizing the state is out of gas.
Their failed clanking windmills and worthless eye-sore solar farms have left them stranded on a dirt road with no relief anywhere in sight. The far left nitwits, whose brains are apparently as empty as their green energy promises and gas tanks, suddenly realize that they now need fossil fuels because their green energy fairy tale is just that …a fairy tale.
California Democrat’s attempt to force their residents away from fossil fuels and kick oil and gas companies out the door has backfired dramatically. California’s Democrat lawmakers are now begging oil companies to come back saying: “All is forgiven.” They’re desperately needy, even passing a bill to stop more oil companies from fleeing the state. They even promised they would not pass a pending bill putting a cap on refiners profits. It’s too late.
In 1983 California had 40 refineries. Today there are just 14. At the rate the state is going the only oil left in California would be in Gavin Newsome’s hair.
Energy giant Chevron put California in its review mirror last year, when it moved its main office to Houston from San Ramon.
Why would any oilman trust these California Democrat climate change fanatics, particularly with the massive amount of money it takes to build and operate a refinery? If the past is any indication they shouldn’t.
California sued Chevron and other oil companies in 2023 alleging climate-change deception and Newson accused “Big Oil” of price-gouging consumers.
The Democrat halfwits in Sacramento even voted to ban the sale of gas-powered cars in the state by 2035, just 10 years from now. Fortunately for sane Californians the U.S. Congress blocked that piece of legislative stupidity.
And how has the state’s silly electric car whimsey worked so far? It hasn’t. It’s sputtered out. Electric vehicles account for less than a quarter of the vehicles sold in the state and that’s dwindling. Those in gas-power vehicles can’t find stations and when they do they pay the highest price of any place in America. Congratulations Democrats, you’ve managed to screw everybody!
In another example of climate change folly a partially taxpayer-funded Ivanpah Solar Power Facility in California’s Mojave Desert is scheduled to shut down in 2026 due to inefficiency in generating solar energy, according to the New York Post. These folks can’t even make their silly solar projects work in a blazing hot desert.
The $2.2 billion site, which features three 459-foot towers, was approved in 2010 and completed in 2014. According to the New York Post, the closure stems from the site being “outpaced by solar photovoltaic technology” and proving both inefficient and costly. The shuttering of the site comes more than a decade ahead of its original 2039 end date says the Associated Press.

Cracker Barrel CEO Is “Crackers”: In British slang “crackers” refers to the crackling sound made by someone who has lost their sanity. Appropriately enough, it also applies to Cracker Barrel CEO Julie Felss Masino.
Why does this gal still have a job there? The woman is an utter disaster. Shareholders should be outraged. She has achieved nothing for that company other than to generate public ridicule, a plummeting stock price, and customer alienation. Was that in her job description?
Is the company’s board of directors selling the stock short? Why else would they keep this incompetent nitwit on board? In fact, why did they even hire her?
In just a few months, Masino, the former head of Taco Bell and Mattel, managed to obliterate the company’s reputation among its staunchest customers; signaled future customers that this is an eatery to avoid; stained the restaurant chain’s reputation; and tanked the stock.
Her job was to generate customer traffic. She has done the exact opposite, producing nothing but red ink and ill will.
A future Harvard Business Review study will probably feature her as an example of classic marketing screwups. If her severance package consists of more than a to-go box of chicken and dumplings, it’s too generous.
Her seat in the corporate Hall of Shame is waiting alongside the Bud Light gal that thought a mentally ill guy in a bikini sitting in a bubble bath could sell beer to guys watching sports; the New Coke folks that attempted to change the taste of the most popular soda in the world; and the crazed loons that convinced Target to attempt to sell “tuck-friendly” wear and rainbow-colored onesies for infants and children.
The folks at CNN and MSNBC appear to be heading down the same path as they continue to peddle what ratings say folks don’t want and didn’t ask for – a far-left bias instead of factual balanced news reporting. Ratings and financial results confirm that viewers and advertisers are not pleased. They are circling the financial drain while their revenues shrink fast.

Wait! What? If, as the legacy network talking heads insist, and screeching left-wingers yell repeatedly that Donald Trump is Hitler, shouldn’t they be scrambling to leave the country, not hanging around waiting to be sent to Auschwitz?

Hysterical Harris: Internationally respected essayist, scholar, American Enterprise Institute fellow and NYU Law School’s Classical Liberal Institute’s Tunku Varadarajan’s Wall Street Journal review of Kamala Harris’s book “107 Days” sums up her failed campaign in two short sentences saying: “Mrs. Harris’s book serves only to show how achingly dull she is. It also shows how disconnected she is from the many ordinary Americans who share her entrenched progressive values.”
Stick a fork in her folks, this gal is done.
Mr. Scott, I am compelled—despite my general distaste for correspondence with the intellectually malnourished—to respond to your latest clamorings of what I can only assume will further misinform and agitate the cabal of flat-Earth reactionaries masquerading as commentators on current affairs. I refer, of course, to the deranged assertion that the “Left” is inherently violent, that climate change is some mythological fantasy concocted perhaps by druids, and that electric cars are the stuff of liberal lunacy.
Firstly, let us address this fever-dream about the violence of the Left. I have observed, from my perch of superior moral and philosophical reasoning (hard-earned through years of theological pondering and digestive distress), that the most violent rhetoric in recent American memory has emanated not from granola-eating pacifists, but from a certain orange-hued carnival barker with the oratorical grace of a malfunctioning lawn sprinkler. If words were cudgels, Mr. Trump would be a one-man medieval siege.
Secondly, on climate change: only a true mongoloid of metaphysical proportions could gaze upon the rising seas, the spontaneous combustion of forests, and the increasingly apocalyptic weather and conclude, “Hmm, seems normal.” I daresay the planet is reacting, as any inflamed body would, to the pustulant infection of unchecked capitalism and aerosol deodorant.
Finally, electric cars: the very idea that abandoning the internal combustion engine—an infernal device responsible for both smog and the proliferation of gas station snacks—should be dismissed as ridiculous, is a position only the most stubbornly anachronistic among us could maintain. I, for one, would welcome a mode of transport that does not sound like Beelzebub’s flatulence every time it starts.
Please, let us elevate the discourse. Or, at the very least, let us keep it above the level of a barstool argument between two undercooked hot dogs in baseball caps.
Yours in offensive reason, Iggy
Regarding refineries in Cal, reports this AM are that a massive fire is ongoing at the Chevron refinery in El Segundo Cal. This is one of the remaining 14 refineries
in Cal. This may cause an outright gas shortage in the state. Perhaps Gov hair gel will honor Jimmy Cagney’s role as Cody Jarret in White Heat for hastening the end of gasoline in his state.
Last night in Portland, antifa thugs lit an American flag on fire. A patriot grabbed the burning flag and extinguished the fire. Suddenly, Portland police appeared and arrested the patriot, NOT the anti-American antifa thugs. WTF !?!?
A post on X indicates Sec of Homeland Security Kristi Noem has had enough of the anarchy in Portland. She’s sending in assets to reign in the thugs now, since Portland city police won’t do their jobs.
That soon the only oil left in California will be in Gavin Newson’s hair is an acute obvervation. But we shouldn’t forget how oily he is generally. If you allowed him to give a campagn presentation in your home you’d have to have your carpets cleaned after he left.
To Larry – even ServPro would decline the cleaning job ! 🥸
I think the authors who use the biggest and most impressive words would want to sign with they’re actual name.
There is NO debate over whether there is liberal bias in the mainstream media:
While calling to “abolish” ICE, Democratic Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar cited a debunked story which alleged that ICE agents held a -year-old autistic girl outside of her home in Massachusetts to “pressure” her father into surrendering. NBC News later issued a correction and acknowledged that it had “mischaracterized” ICE agents’ activities.
NBC doesn’t call out Omar for a dangerous and violence-inciting lie, it takes the bullet for her! “We must have misunderstood her”. If they had added “We will do a better job in the future of being skeptical of unsupported claims made by partisans, you know, like we all learned in Journalism 101,” but they didn’t even do that. I read it as “Yeah, we admit you caught us; have a nice day.”
This supercilious and patronizing cloud of misinformation you wrote is satire, right, “Iggy?”
