    Le Pen Surge in France

    Conservative and socialist parties, with the backing of big business and the media, swear to keep the anti-EU, anti-immigration National Front out of office. As Tom Woods notes, on important regime issues, there is no difference among the alleged opponents.

    Krauthammer Blames Obama

    The neocon with the Dickensian name is right, and wrong. The US and its allies created ISIS and other terrorist groups through its mass murder and intervention in Muslim nations  over decades. ISIS may even be a deliberate US creation, to suppress the anti-interventionist opposition.

    But the decades-long, centrally planned, highly subsidized immigration wave is designed to create a demographic and cultural revolution. It is meant to stimulate social unrest. Krauthammer, like other subversives, is for perpetual war on Muslims, and for radical population change through government immigration and welfare.

    Christians and Muslims can and do live in peace and harmony, through the market. But government is the snake in the garden. It thrives off discord and destruction. And government, Krauthammer, is following your prescribed policies of mayhem.

    Jebillionaire Threatens Trump

    The biggest Jeb donor, immigrant Mike Fernandez, is running full-page newspaper ads spewing spittle at Trump. Does anyone read paper papers anymore, let alone wordy, full-page rant-ads? Very funny.

    Not funny: the crony mass-migrationist’s implicit death threat: “These aren’t the last bullets I’ll shoot.”

    UPDATE from Tim Ryan:

    Seems like this billionaire makes his money by investing in healthcare companies whose revenue is 100% dependent on Medicare and Medicaid.  It’s no wonder he would rather support Hillary than any outsider. 

    I’ll wager he has profited very handsomely since Obamacare was passed.

    The Political Story of the Year

    Nate Silver et al. miss it. Dave Weigel gets it. BTW, Murray Rothbard discussed the importance of figures like Trump in 1954.

    That Latest CNN Poll

    Too Bad About the CNN Debate

    Too bad Trump has decided not to stiff-arm CNN on its next biased-bate. But that’s good news for Tom Woods and me, and our podcast review of the police lineup without the cops. However, without Donald, the CNN show would be a yawner.

    The “debate,” btw, is Tues., Dec. 15th. The Tom Woods Show will be put the next morning. I don’t want to brag, but our funny, cutting, and informative exchange means you don’t really have to watch the Crony News Network.

    These Days, Media Hate Helps a Man

    For example, Trump, as the latest CNN poll shows. No one believes the media. Leftists cheer the MSM, which they control. But no normal person does. See John Nolte’s analysis.

    Trump is up to 36%. Cruz, at #2, is up to 16%. Carson is down to 14%. Rubio is up to 12%. In the revenge of HP, Carly is down to 3%. Jeb is also down to 3%, despite massive ad spending. But as has been clear for some time, that hurts a candidate, ha ha. “So long, consultants. And Rand is down to 1%.

    The Most Persecuted Group in the World

    Christians, of course, who are increasing endangered even in their homeland, Europe. US immigration policy prevents them from moving here, despite their skills and resources.

    Good News From the Pentagram?

    The war secretary is ordering the military to extend female affirmative action to all combat jobs. Of course, this is an attack on human nature and the family, a long Pentagram tradition, but will it also make military aggression slightly more difficult for the commander-in-thief?

    Yes, It’s Time for Gun Control

    Government employees with guns have killed hundreds of millions. San Bernadino, committed by a harasser of restaurants for the county, is just the latest example. It’s time, for the public good, to disarm all these actual and potential killers.

    An Independent Prez Candidacy?

    How much fun will that be? This is, btw, just part of the political unrest, civil disturbance, and economic catastrophe predicted by Ron Paul, in the wake of unending war, imperialism, statism, Keynesianism, and central banksterism. For those of us not in the ruling class, all we can do–besides being personally prepared to the best of our ability–is make some popcorn. We’re like mammals watching the dinosaurs fight. The mighty beasts are doomed; we will inherit.

    ‘Donald Trump Is a Racist and a Bigot’

    Next, Dana Milbank–CIA pal and Skull ‘n Boneser–will reveal that the Southern Poverty Law Center doesn’t like Donald, either. But what do R&B, two of the left’s favorite swear words, actually mean these days? We know they are attempts to silence, and that they are having less success at that, except on left-wing campuses. To a power-elite spokesman, it means a man who has opened up discussion on the centrally planned cultural and demographic revolution now taking place. How dare he? As with the whole panoply of leftist impositions, dissent must be crushed. Surely another attack from WaPo will accomplish that.

    Good for Cruz

    The neocon warmonger (or do I repeat myself?) Max Boot has criticized Ted.

    CNN vs. Trump

    Very neat if Trump boycotts the CNN debate unless the hostile network give $5 million to a charity. The big-boy debate instantly becomes the undercard, especially if Trump broadcasts a competitive event. He could comment on Kasich & company during their debate, for example. Imagine the ratings for that.
