Prosecutors identified the suspects as… the chapter president; Eddie “Stash” Latson, 43, the vice president; Lee “Trench” Mole, 58, the chapter secretary; Donovan “Sockit” Scott, 35, the sergeant-at-arms; Joseph “Axel” Leeks, 44, a captain; Labarron “Bootleg” Pollock, 48, a former vice president; [and] Michael “Chop” Randolph, 43…

UD will totally admit she’s enjoying slumming it among America’s naughty bikers.

The Order of Deneen calls for a crackdown on pornography.

*****************************

The Order is also pantingly natalist, proposing incentives/coercions to get fertile heteros humping.

******************************

Millions of people around the world lean on porn to get them going.

Thus even as our new Catholic masters force-feed frequent fucking, they take away one of the main assistive technologies.

Does their leader Donald Trump use porn?

NO. He uses porn STARS.

******************************

Hey, but that’s nothing. From Review #3 (earlier posts):

Succumbing to the dangerous delusions of comprehensive theorizing against which [Deneen] solemnly warned in 2018, he expounds in his new book “a new and better political theory” to guide the construction of a “postliberal order.” And notwithstanding his earnest counsel five years ago against unleashing the turmoil of revolution, he advances a new regime of sentiments, morals, and purposes…

How Deneen’s new ruling class will handle production, commerce, finance, diplomacy, and defense is anyone’s guess. He also leaves mysterious the extent to which his elite vanguard will protect liberty under the law while implementing its elevated conception of the common good. It would have been clarifying for the would-be revolutionary to examine why previous Marx-inspired efforts by self-appointed elites to manipulate popular resentments and reconstruct society based on comprehensive visions of the good—Mao’s Great Leap Forward and Cultural Revolution come to mind—have produced cruelty and death on an epic scale…

Deneen gives scant attention, moreover, to institutional guardrails to prevent his aristocrats from exploiting the sweeping power with which his theory entrusts them and to restrain the people from going overboard in the “powerful political resistance” his aristopopulism commends. His ominous endorsement of “pressure from the people” and of “the application of Machiavellian means to achieve Aristotelian ends” (emphasis in the original) reinforces the suspicion that Deneen’s ambitious political project authorizes subterfuge, lawlessness, and brutality.

They even look alike.

They are both very important historical actors. Both rid of us vile kings that most people want to see gone.

Boxes of the following were stored in one of the guest bathrooms. See photo below.

Prosecutors charged Mr. Trump with 31 counts of violating the Espionage Act. The indictment details 31 highly classified documents that Trump has kept at his resort. They included information about the military and nuclear capabilities of foreign countries, White House intelligence briefings, a country’s support of terrorist attacks against the U.S., and U.S. military contingency planning.

A Streetcar Named Indictment.

Indicted again
My tears have been falling
A small, lonely cell
The future portends

A bracelet of gold
A monitor band
I’ll wear on my ankle
Cuz I’m indicted again

More even than starvation!

The Dear Leader has now declared suicide illegal.

Yikes. Thought the one in the NYT was bad?

Given Deneen’s influence, the incredible sloppiness of the writing in Regime Change is a surprise. Many of his sentences are ambiguous if not incomprehensible, many of his paragraphs internally contradictory. There are places where the literal meaning of the words on the page [is] precisely opposite to what he plainly intends to convey. (When he says that it was “not uncoincidental” that two related things coincided, I doubt he means they happened together merely by chance.)

Even going to great lengths to puzzle out the strongest versions of the arguments Deneen seems to be making will get the reader only so far. Every one of his major claims disintegrates under scrutiny. You’re left with the impression that he barely understands his own ideas, and that he misunderstands entirely the thing he’s arguing against.

… Yes, people are ticked off about woke overreach by the progressive left. But the idea that most Americans favor a crackdown on pornography or a reintroduction of Sabbath laws or any of Deneen’s other post-liberal fantasies is comical.

*****************

Yeah, but when Deneen and his monk take over, this reviewer will be the first heretic burned at the stake.

*****************

To make matters worse – taken to task by two lady reviewers in the NYT and Reason.

Post-monk, they’ll only open their mouths to sing the Cathophate’s national anthem, Get Your Biscuits in the Oven and Your Buns in the Bed.

[A]ccording to … 2020 figures, Texas’s gun death rate is around 67 percent higher than that of California’s, per 100,000 people.

Don’t mess with Deathxas.

The governor has issued a statement:

“Hell that’s mostly drunk ol cowboys be blowin they haids off. That don’t count.”

He claimed he could alter the course of hurricanes. He claimed 9/11 was divine punishment for “pagans, abortionists, gays, lesbians, [and] the American Civil Liberties Union.” He joins Brother Falwell in the bowels of hell.

 Jared Kushner and Ivanka Kushner walk out of the White House, and months later get $2 billion from the Saudis. You think it’s because he’s some kind of investing genius? Or do you think it’s because he was sitting next to the president of the United States for four years doing favors for the Saudis? That’s your money. That’s your money he stole and gave it to his family. You know what that makes us? A banana republic.

[A] lonely, self-consumed, self-serving mirror hog is not a leader.

Keep it coming.

Patrick Deneen is the revolution’s Menshevik to Adrian Vermeule‘s Bolshevik; but he’s a prominent enough theocrat to score a scathing review in today’s NYT.

Me, I’ve got some sympathy for Deneen: He’s deeply invested in top-down Bang ‘Er Mandates, as in Viktor Orban’s spectacularly failed mission to get drunk suicidal Hungarians to do the missus and seed the world with Hungarians. Orban’s more than done his bit, focusing relentlessly on getting women out of college and splayed panting ‘pon the ágy; but so reluctant are the men that the state has confiscated the fertility clinics, and – in a blow to Natural Law and all that stuff – been engineering the little buggers. Sad.

Because they don’t want their graduating seniors (their ceremony was scheduled in the same venue, later this evening) shot to pieces, the way the Huguenot High School seniors are currently being gunned down.

What will the end of public life in America be like? Looks as though we’re going to find out.

****************

What’ll it be? UD‘s putting her money on a student who was expelled and feels disrespected.

Oh, wait. They say there were two shooters. Maybe a gang thing.

***************

Richmond has long had a humongous murder rate.

***************

Ok, so now they say it was indeed just one person. Who brought multiple weapons and might have targeted one of the murdered people – a just-graduated student – in particular, but seems to have been happy to spray the crowd too.

The Graduation Day shooting was just one of a handful of violent acts this week that left 12 people shot in Richmond over a 72-hour span.

Bernie Ecclestone is actually appearing physically as we speak on trial for fraud/tax evasion, but a glance at his Wikipedia page tells you there’s so much more (TAX AVOIDANCE HITLER REMARKS BRIBERY ACCUSATION ILLEGAL POSSESSION OF A FIREARM) where that came from.

His attorneys will argue that at 92 the old crook is simply too tuckered out to go to jail.

The purge of the last intellectuals at Hillsdale–sur-Mere (formerly New College) has outdone itself: No professors of American history remain in the history department.

President Richard Corcoran, himself under pressure because his last name reminds people of Johnnie Cochran, quickly appointed his replacement, “a man whose distinguished research career speaks for itself.”
