Useful Idiots: When the Revolution You Cheered Comes for You

History’s most dangerous political bait-and-switch begins when groups with completely incompatible end goals unite around a common enemy. Iran’s Marxists thought they were using the Islamists; the Islamists had other plans. Today, America’s socialists, progressives, and Islamist activists sometimes find themselves marching beneath the same anti-capitalist and anti-Western banners. Iran offers an uncomfortable warning: before helping tear down the old order, you’d better ask what your revolutionary partners intend to build in its place—and whether they’ll still need you when they’re finished.

Shockingly Underreported News and Commentary for the Week of 16 August

The Democrat-media complex have buried these

This is the third post in the ongoing weekly feature that highlights news and commentary on important geopolitical, cultural, and economic issues that the Democrat-media complex buries because they expose the hypocrisies associated with the continuing Marxist-Democrat narrative. Everything is properly sourced and linked for follow-up reading, whether from legacy media, independent sources, or social media.

Is Ohio Dem House Candidate Leonard Lying to Keep His DSA Under a Bushel?

In King James’ version of the Bible – in Matthew 5:15-16 – Jesus says:

“Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.”

Jesus was encouraging us to not hide from the world our skills and good qualities. But to instead allow them to shine in the open – and illuminate the world for everyone.

It’s not too big of a stretch to apply Jesus’ parable to what’s currently going on with the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) – and Ohio’s 15th Congressional district.

California regulates spare tires: It is just another bureaucratic power grab in the name of saving the planet

The California Energy Commission on Monday unanimously approved a new power to regulate spare tires using a 2003 law. The commission claims without independent verification that its Replacement Tire Efficiency Program will save Californians $1 billion a year on gasoline.

(In snobby British accent) they spend $58 billion a year on petro.

The commission could save Californians $8 billion a year by eliminating gasoline taxes but then the state would have to cut back on handouts to the homeless and the illegal aliens that give it extra congressmen and extra federal funding.

Julian Epstein, who served as the chief legal counsel for House Democrats during the Clinton impeachment hearing in the1990s and later worked on Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign, made waves last week declaring his support for GOP’s Mike Rogers over Marxist/Islamist Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan’s Senate race.

Operation Let Them Speak Is Underway: Blue State Idjiotic Politics Exemplified By Their Big Tent And The DSA

My favorite among tough competition is his campaign motto for the republicans in 2026 that he has been touting for several years now called “Operation let them speak,” which is an upgrade of his long-standing plan focused on highlighting the idjiotcy of AOC.

Being Older Means Being Lucky; And Maybe Even Legendary

I received the commentary below from the son of a WW II Marine who was killed in action on Iwo Jima and who was awarded a Purple Heart and Navy Cross posthumously. He and I exchange emails on topics of interest—most often related to the military, social issues, politics, and the state of our nation. We are both veterans who have grave concerns about the future of America.

AOC is DOA Via DSA

AOC, when accused of being a socialist, had this to say: “Can I tell you a secret? Most people don’t really know what capitalism is; most people don’t even know what socialism is. But most people are not capitalist because they don’t have capitalist money. They’re not billionaires.”

Although Hasan Piker’s (HasanAbi) net worth is estimated to be between $6 million and $8 million, which he has accumulated under America’s “capitalist economic system,” in this short video, he is shouting “let the streets soak in their fxxking red capitalist blood, dude!”
