When Equal Treatment Feels like Discrimination

Original Article

Posted By: Judy W., 10/4/2025 9:40:51 AM

Dr. Thomas Sowell famously and rightly remarked when people get used to preferential treatment, equal treatment seems like discrimination. The counter-programming from secretary of War Pete Hegseth during his September 30 Quantico speech to top military brass doubtless received a frosty reception from at least some of the high-ranking commissioned officers who had grown accustomed to preferential treatment. Consider the psychological mindset of a DIE-privileged general, perhaps someone like Hegseth’s predecessor (the race- and climate-obsessed Gen. Lloyd Austin) or Gen. C.Q. Brown, Jr., formerly of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, a vocal supporter of Black Lives Matter. Or perhaps a waddling, comically obese officer such as(Snip) Gen. Mark Milley.

I'm looking forward to hearing about many retirement announcements of chubby generals and diversity promoted officers.

The fact that Comey will be tried in a courtroom packed with Democrats is in itself discrimination against over half the country. The DC Circuit must be dissolved and its cases distributed (in a real random-assignment system) among the other circuits throughout the country.

Interesting perspective……and oh so true! I love the description of the generals listening to Hegseth.

Tommy Robinson asks: '55 Muslim states

Tommy Robinson has been a deeply divisive figure in British politics since the rise of the English Defense League in the early 2010s. His detractors have labeled him a “white supremacist” and an “Islamophobe,” while his supporters have hailed him as the only person speaking truth to power over mass migration and radical Islam. This division has, naturally, stretched into the British Jewish community. Yet as the crisis of security for the British Jewish community has worsened, in particular since October 7, when antisemitism exploded across the UK, more and more British Jews have warmed to the formerly untouchable Tommy Robinson.

Come on, civil war in Europe was inevitable. The New World Order Globalist Oppressors built a system that is failing so hard, not one sector of any of their captured economies is working properly. Europe is in a recession directly as a result of the bone-headed policies. The working people of every country are fit to be tied and September 13th is looking to be the day of days of protest in the U.K.with millions on the street. Instead of the pierced and purple-haired scavenger class littering the cities with their puffy bodies and wrecked minds, these are the people who make the country work.And they have considerable economic power.

In 2015, then-Chancellor of Germany Angela Merkel, opening wide the doors of her country to close to a million overwhelmingly Muslim immigrants, assured her countrymen that “Wir schaffen das!” or “We Can Do This.” (Snip) In the highly affluent city of Gelsenkirchen, it is abundantly clear how far public institutions have already progressed in adapting to Islamic principles. Several state schools there have completely converted their meals to halal – with no alternative options for “non-believing students.” (Snip) Starting next school year, all students there will only be served what Allah and his believers consider halal.

“A Small European Nation Has a Big Explosions Problem,” a New York Times story recently reported. The story clarified that the small nation was the Netherlands, it never did clarify who was behind the over 700 bombings so far this year.Saying it out loud would have been impolite. European nations, small and great, have all sorts of mysterious unexplained problems that they never used to before. The Netherlands has a rash of bombings. In the UK, acid attacks are up 75%.Much like the bombings in the Netherlands, none of the news stories clarify why a phenomenon associated with a whole other part of the world had migrated to the UK.

Orange Strawman Bad. The New York Times opinion pages, today: By ordering 800 National Guard troops to Washington, on the pretext of an illusory crime wave, President Trump has further dragged the U.S. military into domestic law enforcement, in a move credibly perceived as an ominous “test case.” (Snip) OH GOD TRUMP IS SENDING THE NATIONAL GUARD INTO WASHINGTON D.C., NOTHING LIKE THIS HAS EVER HAPPENED BEFORE. It’s been four years, dorks. Nobody forgot. Of course it has happened before, in the federal district of Washington D.C. and elsewhere.

There have been quite a few protests in Washington, DC since Trump announced that he was going to crack down on crime in the city, but it’s hard to know if any of it is real or not.

While Congress vacations, Trump dominates the media spotlight. August 1 began this administration’s second full six months. August 31 marks Iran’s deadline for abandoning its nuclear ambitions.

The feminized, Ken-doll-abdomened West is getting a hard lesson in the amazing properties of Just Doing Things. We let criminals and mutants at home dominate our society based on the bizarre notion that their very real perfidy was a result of our fake perfidy. (Snip) Donald Trump understands how to say “No.” He refuses to play along with a set of norms and guardrails that only we are supposed to observe and whose sole purpose is to prevent us from exercising our power to reject the decline our alleged betters have decreed we deserve. Remember, they can’t make us do anything. They have no guns and no upper body strength.

President Joe Biden allied his Department of Agriculture with liberal activist groups to register Americans to vote and staff polling locations, potentially in violation of federal law, according to a memo shared with the Daily Caller. The practice has since been undone by President Donald Trump, who directed his administration to conduct a review of the Biden administration’s federal get-out-the-vote programs. Biden signed an executive order in March 2021, rescinded by Trump in March 2025, which required federal agencies to register and mobilize voters. Under Biden’s order, the USDA partnered with the American Civil Liberties Union and Dēmos, a left-wing public policy advocacy group, to implement the president’s plan,

In recent years, I’ve sometimes invoked Rudyard Kipling’s The Gods of the Copybook Headings, usually when something goes wrong because people did something obviously stupid. Well, to be fair, that’s the main subject of the poem: how being entranced by popular but dumb ideas leads to destruction. But there’s another side to it. When you do things that are simple and obvious — and, often, traditional — you can do pretty well. And we’re seeing that illustrated, at home and abroad. At home, the allegedly insoluble illegal immigration problem is being solved, via the simple and obvious, and traditional, approach of policing the borders and deporting people who are here illegally.

Herman Cain lives! The late great Republican Tea Party leader, CEO, and former chairman of the Kansas City Federal Reserve was derided in his 2012 presidential campaign for his "Chilean Model" proposed during a debate -- a plan to replace the failing Social Security system with private accounts, as had been done in Chile in the 1970s. In reality, he had an enduringly good idea that would have saved the rapidly depleting U.S. Social Security system just as it saved Chile's, and made every saver in the U.S. richer. But the left demonized it without a hearing, (Snip) Now President Trump has picked up the torch.

Her Grace Chelsea Clinton — Queen of the Nepo-Babies, Heir to the Neoliberal Throne — has announced a brand-new podcast in which she resurrects the long-discredited “fact-check” scam in order to counter MAHA “misinformation.” (Chelsea’s new podcast coincidentally happens to be the exact same in mission and scope as her failed previous podcast, “In Fact with Chelsea Clinton,” which lasted less than a year.) Aside from (mis)informing listeners about all manner of health issues, the stated goal of the podcast is to help stand up an army of liberal talking-point robots programmed to “debunk misinformation over coffee, cocktails or wherever it might come up.”

A federal judge in Oregon temporarily blocked the Trump administration’s plan to deploy hundreds of National Guard troops to Portland — the same day federal agents unleashed tear gas and mace on anti-ICE agitators after more than 100 straight days of unrest. US District Judge Karin Immergut, a Trump nominee, ruled Saturday that deploying active-duty troops to secure the “war ravaged” Oregon city would violate the US Constitution and federal law barring military involvement in domestic law enforcement. “The relationship between the federal government and the states, between the military and domestic law enforcement, and the balance of powers between the executive,

Actress "Hanoi" Jane Fonda blew a gasket this week during an appearance on CNN, where she went off on Democrat Party leaders for being "not good enough" while she spewed the same tired "Trump is authoritarian" nonsense she and the other left-wing "evangelists" in Hollywoke keep pushing. Fonda was promoting the relaunch of her Committee for the First Amendment. Hollywood liberals birthed the organization during the Cold War in the late 1940s to fight the blacklisting that arose during the McCarthy era. A liberal started a committee to allegedly promote the First Amendment even though someone on her side of the political divide -

Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union,” Sen. Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) called Secretary of War Pete Hegseth a “laughing stock.” Host Jake Tapper said, “You’re a veteran, so I would be remiss if I didn’t ask you what you thought of Secretary Hegseth and President Trump’s discussion before the generals at Quantico?” Gallego said, “I think it’s absolutely ridiculous. It was number one — it politicizes more the military, which is what you don’t want to do. As someone who has sat in briefings of that nature, it really tells you what’s happening. You know, it’s definitely clear that the Secretary of Defense is trying to compensate for something.

MSNBC also confirmed that the FBI agent was fired for refusing to perp walk Comey in front of news cameras after he was indicted.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) have reportedly come under fire in Broadview, Illinois, a suburb of Chicago, from a woman identified only as a “U.S. citizen.” This comes after Illinois Gov.

Once again, the left’s rhetoric spills over into violence.[snip] “federal agents were rammed and boxed in by 10 cars in Broadview, Ill., where anti-U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) crowds have been gathering for days.”

The movie posters of James Bond pictures usually featured an armed 007, surrounded by a montage of exotic locations, villains, lairs, action scenes, gadgets, and the alluring heroines. (X, X, X, X) There were also the minimalist posters that only featured the film's leading actor, in a dinner jacket, posing with his Walther PPK. Occasionally, even the villains participated in posing for similar stills. All these posters conveyed a message that Bond is a steadfast proponent and protector of the West. He was also an aspirational figure -- a fearless patriot who enjoyed the luxuries that men dream of. The posters were in synch with the minimalist, mysterious,

Democrats are facing growing concern in New Jersey as the state’s gubernatorial race tightens and new data shows Republicans gaining an early advantage in mail-in voting ahead of the November election. Updated figures this week indicate that Republican ballot returns have surpassed Democrats for the first time in the 2025 cycle, reflecting a shift that has intensified challenges for Rep. Mikie Sherrill’s campaign against former state lawmaker Jack Ciattarelli. According to election analyst Michael Pruser, 18.6 percent of all mail-in ballots returned so far are from Republican voters, compared to 16.6 percent from Democrats and 9.3 percent from other parties.

Mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani has proposed New York City tax increases of $9 billion to pay for free childcare for children under the age of 6, free bus fare for all, and opening city-owned and run grocery stores. His tax increases would raise the top New York City personal income tax rate by a little over 5 percent and the top New York City corporate income tax rate by around 45 percent. If NYC implements the Mamdani-proposed tax increases, a wealthy NYC resident would face a total federal, state and city tax burden of a whopping 53.836 percent.
