Rep. John Larson (D-CT) took part in an anti-immigration enforcement demonstration this week in Newington, Connecticut. He called for people, and who knows how many of the attendees are mental cases, to rise up against law enforcement. “Another Democratic member has called for people to “rise up” against the federal government and analogized the conduct […] The post Dem.

The German government’s Net Zero agenda has evolved into what critics are calling a “tax on the Sun”. Recent amendments to Germany’s Renewable Energy Sources Act (EEG) introduce a levy on self-consumed electricity from solar installations exceeding 10 kilowatts—effectively taxing businesses and homeowners for harnessing sunlight on their own properties.

The Democrat National Committee held its summer meeting in the smoldering ruins of Minneapolis’s George Floyd Plaza this week, where they rented a hall from the local chapter of the Crips, next to the homeless encampments erected amidst the charred timbers of what once were local businesses, so Democrat officials could try to uncover the mysterious reasons why support for their party is in a decline so sharp, it reminds Americans of the decline in their children’s well-being after Teachers Unions introduced cartoon homosexual pornography into their kindergartens in preparation for changing the children’s sex without telling their parents. The unfathomable mystery of why the Democrats are losing so many voters was addressed during the last three minutes of an hour-long panel discussion, which was all the time that was left after fifty-seven minutes of land acknowledgements paying tribute to the indigenous tribes who once held ceremonial dinners on that spot whenever they could find someone to eat. Among the ever-so-puzzling riddles the Democrats sought to answer were: Why are Donald Trump’s anti-crime measures so popular with people who don’t want to be killed? DNC Chairman Ilhan Jihad Mohammed Pazuzu Mohammed Jihad Jihad, whose pronouns are “They,” “It,” “Snookums” and “Death-to-the-Jews,” addressed the gathered Democrats from a bullet-proof booth in the hall’s Conference Room Number MS-13, renamed the Kilmar Abrego Garcia ballroom for the occasion. Ms. or Possibly Mister Pazuzu Mohammed Jihad Jihad said, “Donald Trump can garner quick headlines by bringing down crime with cheap tricks like putting more law officers on the streets, but we have to find real solutions, like setting criminals free without bail. When you put, say, an accused murderer in prison just because he can’t afford bail, all you do is make him so angry, he would kill again, if he weren’t, you know, in prison. Also, we need more youth programs and anti-racist training because that sort of useless crap has been very successful for us in the past, or if it hasn’t, at least there’s no one left to tell the tale. And we have to address the root causes of crime like poverty and racism, and sure, while we’re diddling around with that nonsense, we may lose some voters in the occasional weekend massacre, but remember this: Not only will each murderer we set free become a Democrat voter, but so will his victims.” WATCH: The Andrew Klavan Show The Democrats also addressed the brain-busting conundrum of why so many men are abandoning the Democrat party, clutching their testicles in self-defense until they can escape to a red state where they’ll be safe. To get the male perspective, Governor Tim Walz was brought in to speak openly as a straight man, instead of what we all know he actually is. Governor Walz said, “Everyone talks about the divisions in our party, but so what? There are divisions in my family, with my wife constantly complaining about how sick she is of dressing up like Timothy Chalamet just to get some attention. But the guy’s a great actor, right? Who the hell doesn’t want to sleep with Timothy Chalamet? And as my wife always says, ‘Diversity is our strength.’ Or maybe she says, ‘divorce is our strength.’ It’s hard to make out the words when she’s wearing the Timothy Chalamet mask.” The party conference did become contentious when Democrats were divided between two different declarations on the war in Gaza, one calling for the immediate slaughter of Israeli Jews, and the other calling for their agonizing demise slowly over time. Ultimately, the two sides settled on a compromise calling for a two-state solution: the state of Israel, and the state dedicated to wiping Israel off the map if it’s the last thing they ever do. In the words of DNC Co-Chairman Jasmine X. Stalin, “When Hitler killed the Jews, the Jews were good, but now that Jews are killing the people who killed the Jews, the Jews are Hitler and good is evil. And that’s what the Democrat party stands for: good, by which we mean evil.” The Democrats say they will continue searching for the hidden reasons for their unpopularity until they can win elections again and get back to destroying the country. * * * This excerpt is taken from the opening satirical monologue of “The Andrew Klavan Show.” Andrew Klavan is the host of “The Andrew Klavan Show” at The Daily Wire.

George Carlin had his seven words you can’t say on TV, but today there is only one ineffable (un-sayable) word in American public life. You all know what it is. That one-word ban is due to the unique history and politics of the United States. Are there any ineffable political beliefs? In America, not yet. The Constitution’s First Amendment allows us to speak our minds. Other than calling for violent overthrow of the government or the immediate commission of a crime, we can say what we want. That includes bizarre, unpleasant, or even insane beliefs. But in Australia, Canada, and Europe, free speech on asylum, migration, and national identity is increasingly being curtailed by law. Western countries are undergoing massive, and often unpopular, demographic change. In democracies, the people have the right to discuss all political issues and decide what their own future should be. Yet increasingly, speech is prescribed, especially in the English-speaking world. The news site Axios recently wrote that “[i]n MAGA’s telling, America is the heir to ancient European civilizations, built on a Judeo-Christian foundation of white identity, meritocracy and traditional gender roles.” Axios is clearly trying to be critical here, but what’s their issue? I’d substitute the race-baiting term “white” with the more accurate “European,” and add something about free markets and free speech, but Axios describes exactly why millions flee the Third World and what they’re coming to. But as Western countries absorb those millions, the rules on what speech and conduct is acceptable are changing to accommodate them, with government complicity. As popular dissent grows, opposing the progressive establishment’s insistence that migration is an unalloyed good is increasingly risky. Being a nationalist, meaning putting your nation first. Calling to limit all — not just illegal — migration. Criticizing over-generous and easily-gamed asylum systems. Advocating for indigenous rights for Europeans. Citing official statistics that show nationals of some countries commit violent crime at rates many times that of natives. Citing studies that show low-skilled migrants actually take more in benefits from the fiscal pot over their lifetime than they put in. All these can land one in hot water in some supposedly free countries that are close U.S. allies. The most toxic topic is the war in the Middle East, which has little connection to the lives of everyday Westerners but inspires demonstrations from Washington, D.C. to Wellington, NZ. A two-tier attitude to free speech is rapidly developing across the Anglophone world, where provocative behavior is tolerated from supporters of Palestinians that would have been unimaginable only a generation ago. In Australia, thousands of protesters took to the streets recently “demanding that the Australian government take action against Israel’s war against Hamas in Gaza,” according to AP News. They chanted “free, free Palestine,” as they waved a Palestinian flags. In Canada, the group Montreal4 Palestine has held public Muslim prayers outside the Basilica of Notre Dame. Quebec is a French-speaking province and heavily Catholic. The symbolism of Muslim prayers in front of a prominent Catholic church, under flapping Palestinian flags, is powerful. Montreal4 Palestine protesters held a banner saying “we fight, we liberate, we return,” a slogan echoing the goals of Hamas. An opposing group of counter-protesters carrying Quebec flags and playing patriotic songs was much smaller. Meanwhile in England, indigenous people are flying the English flag, a cross of St. George on a white background. Some are doing so spontaneously, and others as part of Operation Raise the Colours. Critics try and tie it all to far-right extremism, but there is a groundswell to this movement that exceeds the tiny numbers of the radical right in Great Britain. The London borough of Tower Hamlets and the City Council of Birmingham tore down English flags that had been hung in the streets. The symbolism is clear there too. In Tower Hamlets, Bangladeshis outnumber indigenous (white) British, and the non-English reportedly dominate government-subsidized housing. Birmingham, a town in the middle of England, was 99.6% indigenous in 1951, but a decade ago, the Daily Mail reported that “a child in Birmingham is now more likely to be a Muslim than Christian.” Since then, the country has seen mass migration from countries including Bangladesh, Pakistan, and Somalia. Today, indigenous British in Birmingham are under 50%. The U.K.’s left-wing national broadcaster, the BBC, hints that anyone raising the English or British flags must be a right-wing extremist. The left-wing newspaper the Guardian predictably claims that putting up English and British flags “may offer cover for far-right agendas.” By “far-right,” they include opposition to mass migration, concern about increased sexual violence against girls and women, and fear of cultural disintegration. End of Summer Sale – Get 40% off New DailyWire+ Annual Memberships Opposing mass migration is now an ineffable political position in the left-wing dominated academia, civil service, and media. But it is perfectly understandable and legitimate reaction to enormous demographic change across the Western world. If current policies and trends continue, that change will make indigenous British a minority in their land within a few generations. Other countries like France and Germany are not far behind. This fate is not inevitable, it is a choice. It will only happen if the people accept it and elect governments accordingly. Putting out more flags perhaps signals that they won’t. * * * Simon Hankinson is a senior research fellow in The Heritage Foundation’s Border Security and Immigration Center and the author of “The Ten Woke Commandments (You Must Not Obey)” from Academica Books.

(Reuters) -Texas Governor Greg Abbott on Friday signed into law a bill to redraw the state’s congressional maps at the behest of President Donald Trump in an effort to flip five U.S. House seats held by Democrats to Republicans. The ratification came after the state’s legislature passed the measure last week amid a nationwide redistricting battle. “Texas is now more red in the United States Congress,” Abbott said in a video post on social media, after signing the bill with a marker. Republicans have acknowledged they believe winning more congressional seats in Texas will help the party maintain its slim majority in the U.S. House of Representatives in next year’s midterm elections. More states controlled by Republicans are considering similar action. California and other states where Democrats hold power vow to counter such moves. The California legislature approved a redistricting plan last week aimed at giving Democrats five more congressional seats. End of Summer Sale – Get 40% off New DailyWire+ Annual Memberships The California plan must be approved by voters in November. The Texas plan does not need voter approval, but it has been challenged in court. The Texas bill was delayed for two weeks after more than 50 Democratic state House members staged a walkout that denied Republicans the legislative quorum needed. Democrats argued that the new Texas map violates federal law by diluting Hispanic and Black voting power and discriminating on the basis of race. Texas Republicans who sponsored the bill said they redrew maps based on voting history, not race. Most Americans believe redrawing congressional lines for the sake of maximizing political gain, known as gerrymandering, is bad for democracy, a Reuters/Ipsos poll found this week.

President Donald Trump moved to cut another $4.9 billion in foreign aid spending through an executive maneuver last used nearly 50 years ago.  In a Thursday letter to House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA), which was posted on social media on Friday, Trump stated that he is clawing back funding from programs run by the State Department, the United States Agency for International Development, and International Assistance Programs. Much of the funding is related to programs pushing climate and gender activism.  The cuts will be carried out through a pocket rescission—a process allowing the president to revoke previously approved spending just before the fiscal year ends, leaving Congress no time to reauthorize the funds under federal law. Any future funding would require separate congressional approval. On a background call with The Daily Wire, a White House official said a pocket rescission was a tool that the Trump administration had “dusted off.” “Last night, President Trump CANCELLED $4.9 billion in America Last foreign aid using a pocket rescission,” the Office of Management and Budget posted on X on Friday. “[President Trump] will always put AMERICA FIRST!” ? Last night, President Trump CANCELLED $4.9 billion in America Last foreign aid using a pocket rescission.@POTUS will always put AMERICA FIRST! pic.twitter.com/1DvXYGdy3B — Office of Management and Budget (@WHOMB) August 29, 2025 Secretary of State Marco Rubio applauded the move from Trump.  “Since assuming office, President Trump has been committed to rooting out fraud, waste, and abuse from the U.S. government, saving American workers billions of dollars,” Rubio said. “Now, for the first time in 50 years, the President is using his authority under the Impoundment Control Act to deploy a pocket rescission, cancelling $5 billion in foreign aid and international organization funding that violates the President’s America First priorities.” Rubio said that some of the programs that were cancelled included $2.7 million for “inclusive democracy” in South Africa and $4 million for “global LGBTQI+ awareness”  “None of these programs are in America’s interest, which is why the President is taking decisive action to put America and Americans first,” Rubio said.  End of Summer Sale – Get 40% off New DailyWire+ Annual Memberships A White House official added that the cuts also included hundreds of millions of dollars in climate projects, such as building a greenhouse gas calculator, promoting vegan food in Zambia, developing insect powder for children in Madagascar, and purchasing electric buses in Rwanda. There is an ongoing legal battle over the use of “pocket recissions,” and some lawmakers have argued that the move is unconstitutional.  “Given that this package was sent to Congress very close to the end of the fiscal year when the funds are scheduled to expire, this is an apparent attempt to rescind appropriated funds without congressional approval,” Senator Susan Collins (R-ME) said, joining Senate Democrats who spoke out against the move. “Any effort to rescind appropriated funds without congressional approval is a clear violation of the law.” A White House official said Friday afternoon that they believed it had “a very firm legal footing” to make the cuts, and that “we will be making that case.”
