What the Danish and European media misunderstand (and misrepresent) about America, and vice versa. And other stuff.
Everybody run, the Dread Tyrant Trump has been handed a gun! Thanks to the Durham report released earlier this week, we now know that the “Russia collusion” accusations against Donald Trump were a fabrication—a lie—engineered by the Hillary Clinton campaign and dutifully leveraged by partisans within America’s law enforcement and intelligence agencies and ultimately enflamed…
AI is in the house. Unless you have been living under a rock these past two months, it seems safe to say that AI-driven interfaces have made a big splash. First and foremost, of course is ChatGPT (GPT being Generative Pre-trained Transformer), a chatbot from the company OpenAI, that has garnered an enormous amount of…
It’s commonly believed that on September 26—more than three weeks ago—the Nord Stream pipelines were sabotaged. Three weeks isn’t a lot of time in most circumstances, but in warfare it’s an eternity: time enough to fight the whole Six Day War three times and take a long weekend. New Yorkers woke up to a beautiful…
That seems to be consensus elite opinion right now. Leftists used to be champions of free speech. Everyone did. It was something we took for granted in the west. “I disapprove of what you say,” everyone was always saying, “but I will defend to the death your right to say it.” When today’s western elites…
Personal update: Covid appears to have completed its course through our household. The girls are back in school and Herself is up and about, although the virus seems to be lingering with her. And once again I was left untouched as covid struck everyone around me. One would think that by the time February 2022…
My core political beliefs can’t be stated any more succinctly than they’re stated in the Declaration of Independence: We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That…
I had intended to write something loose and light today. Something a little goofy, maybe, or reflective. I hadn’t really made up my mind. At the same time, I’ve been meaning to get into the wild and hysterical over-reaction to the Omicron variant of the Wuhan virus. (Heather MacDonald digs into that pretty thoroughly in…
An article published on Bloomberg this past Saturday was widely ridiculed—but for all the wrong reasons. Entitled For Americans Shocked by Inflation, Argentines Have Some Advice, the article offers a few tips for Americans coping with inflation from Argentines for whom it’s become a way of life. Number one on the list: “Spend your paycheck…
We had guests over for lunch Saturday afternoon. Unlike many Danish households, we hadn’t planned our day around the evening’s European Cup match between Denmark and Finland, but we weren’t deliberately avoiding it, either. By the time 18:00 rolled around, our little gathering was winding down so we turned on the game. We didn’t watch…
More and more damning information is coming about Dr. Fauci, the Wuhan lab leak theory, and the mechanics of statecraft applied to the suppression of scientific inquiry, even from some piously leftwing outlets. The border crisis continues unabated. Mere weeks after Eastern European hackers shut down a major gas pipeline and caused gas shortages across…
Yesterday’s post was all about the narrative—specifically, the leftist-controlled American narrative that drives so much establishment media coverage and big tech censorship. (Note that not long after I posted that, Facebook lifted its ban on posts speculating about a possible lab origin of the virus. Thoughtcrime abolished! As I foretold you: it will eventually be…
The blog is going to go dark for the next few days, as the Danish Store Bededag (“Great Prayer Day”) holiday weekend dovetails perfectly with my need for a little extra time to attend to private matters, not least among those some time away from the news. It’s a well-timed break, and by jumping into…
