Britain’s Labor government is in trouble: Its program of massive third-world immigration from places like Pakistan and Somalia is wildly, overwhelmingly unpopular.

But that’s not the real problem.

The real problem is that despite the best efforts of Prime Minister Keir Starmer and his leftist captive media, Britons themselves have discovered just how unpopular it is.

You might think that’s absurd — if mass immigration is unpopular, how can everyone not know it?  Everyone doesn’t know it because the government has been policing speech about immigration.

You see, Britain has no First Amendment, an inviolate right to free speech.  Result?  Any criticism of open borders, lax enforcement or — worst of all — immigrant crime has been punished as “racist” and “hate speech” by the Starmer regime. It’s “Islamophobic,” you see.

There’s a rare kind of elegance that doesn’t come from handlers, stylists, or algorithms. It comes from knowing who you are before the world decides who you should be.

Melania Trump didn’t arrive in Washington looking to be molded. She arrived whole. A woman who had already survived a communist upbringing, brutal fashion circuits, and tabloid cruelty, which meant she didn’t need America’s approval.

And that’s precisely why they couldn’t look away.

While others in the political orbit begged for the spotlight, Melania Trump did something that felt borderline rebellious: She stood still. She didn’t chase applause. She didn’t retweet compliments. She didn’t apologize for being herself.

She's thunder without sound.

It’s the Woke Mob’s latest insanity – an ad for blue jeans excoriated for promoting Whiteness making it “Nazi propaganda.”  Leading the charge is MSNBC producer Hannah Holland, writing on Wednesday (7/29):

So let’s cut the nonsense: liberal women aren’t mad at Sydney Sweeney because she’s "setting women back." That’s just the excuse they’re throwing around because they don’t want to admit the truth.

They’re mad because she’s young, hot, White, and blonde. And they're mad that corporations are finally waking up to the truth: that the American people are done with woke!

Sometime after the election of Barack Obama in 2008, the American Left began exploring, then embracing, and finally enacting agendas that proved not only unhinged and unworkable but also fatal to the left-wing project itself.

How did the party so alienate the middle classes when it once professed it was the sole party and protector of those in-between? How did the Democrat Congress sink to a 16 percent approval rating in a current liberal Quinnipiac University poll? How could 63 percent of registered voters view the Democrats unfavorably in a recent Wall Street Journal poll?

In sum: despise the middle class, then lose elections. Let’s itemize what the Dems have done to achieve this.

A hallmark of President Donald Trump’s second term is that he’s not just promoting his own policies — he’s looking to shake up the American power structure from top to bottom.

Step by step, he is undermining or destroying the left’s decades-old program to achieve total dominance of government and politics through its control of money and institutions.

That’s what Trump is up to with his plan to move much of the federal bureaucracy out of the Washington, DC, area and into the rest of the country.

In doing so, he’s infuriating federal bureaucrats leading cushy lives in DC and its suburbs, close to the centers of power — and close to the various contractors and lobby groups that can be expected to offer them well-padded post-retirement jobs.

Here’s a host of good things this will achieve.

The Deep State is a budget-busting, bureaucratic tyranny, crushing capitalist meritocracy and social values. It is a self-directed, out-of-control monster that fights MAGA tooth and claw.

However, the brilliant computer “nerds” of Elon Musk’s Department Of Governmental Efficiency are already using the first version of their Artificial Intelligence software tool with the goal of eliminating at least 50% of federal regulation -- swift, massive deregulation across the federal government.

DOGE has developed this initial, primitive, tool to evaluate what we can think of as the internal rationality of federal regulations. If half of them can be eliminated because they are out of date, redundant, or mutually conflictive, that suggests that half of what bureaucrats do is useless waste.

This is huge. A main source of Deep State’s bureaucratic power is writing the federal regulations that describe how to apply and implement laws passed by Congress.

Note that this scale of information is beyond the ability of a single mind, or team of minds, to read, absorb, and comprehend. Only AI level software can hope to deal with this massive blob of unrationalized data.

An AI software program that identifies redundant and conflicting regulations, and maybe justifies eliminating half of them, is, effectively, a regulation weed-whacker against a leftist bureaucracy.

During the USSR’s 73 years of existence, the list of wars it waged is enormous—a total of 25, including conflicts in the Caucasus, the Baltic states, Finland, Poland, Germany, Japan, Afghanistan, Spain, Hungary, and Czechoslovakia.

After the collapse of the Soviet empire, Russia’s predatory mindset did not vanish. Since 1991, Russia has continued to exist in a state of permanent war: Georgia, Chechnya, Syria, and now the most senseless war of all—against Ukraine.

A natural question arises: why?

Looking for a rational explanation is pointless. Russia has always acted irrationally, without any clear benefit and almost always to its detriment.

The root of all its imperial wars should perhaps be studied through the lens of psychology or even psychiatry. My aim is much simpler: to draw attention to the ultimate goal of Russia’s current war against Ukraine.
