Greetings from the Deranged Dominion, where I am digging out from our first major winter snowstorm. I hate the cold, but I'd rather be digging my way out of a snowfall than digging myself deeper into a fetid Jew-hating, corrupt, dictatorial, commie hole, as British Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn so exquisitely dug for himself courtesy of a recent BBC interview.
The Formerly Great Britain has also featured prominently in the news lately with the most recent jihad attack on London Bridge. This latest attack showcased extreme civilian bravery, the idiocy of public policy relating to terrorists, and inane do-gooder rehabilitation schemes that end up in murder. It also highlighted the particularly Western phenomenon of human sacrifice. And it's not just bureaucrats anymore: it's parents offering up their children. We are also apparently supposed to take moral direction from London Mayor Sadiq Khan, who not only says diversity our strength, but that we should take our inspiration from the murder victims who dedicated their lives to the individuals that eventually murdered them. Very inspirational – for terrorists that is.
Friends, this is profoundly evil stuff, and now is certainly not the time to go wobbly. Be like Mark Steyn. SteynOnline is a wobble-free zone.
The brighter points of the week were most certainly new, fresh nuggets of content from Mark Steyn! He, of course, did a bangup job guest hosting The Tucker Carlson show on Black Friday, even though "Black Friday" is most certainly racist and yucky poopy gross out to the max YOU HATERZZzzzzz and it should probably be called Rainbow Friday, or Colour That Shall Not Be Mentioned Friday at the very least, HOW DARE YOU, etc... And the Most Gloriously Awesomely Unwoke Bloke also shared a new Song of the Week audio special with us on Swanee - Just A Gigolo – just fab!
On the bright side, it's lovely that It's Beginning to Feel a Lot Like Christmas at the White House of President Worst Hitler Ever. Friends, as you make out your holiday to-do list, do remember the most important things. And by this, I of course, mean remembering your favourite In-House Jewish Mother in your Christmas cookie planning or I will speak to ZOG Headquarters about recalling all the Jewish-written Christmas songs and putting The Greatest Love of All on repeat on all platforms from Christmas Eve till New Year's.
Interestingly, and as a seemingly invisible nod to the upcoming festive holiday season i.e Christmas (DUH!), and by popular demand (OK, one Mark Steyn Club member, "King K", made note of this last week) the universe and Internet have strangely provided us with a Human Grace section that is a little more zaftig than usual! You're welcome! Now let's get started.
