Here’s How Leftids Win Elections, from Now On

Le Pen awaits court verdict which could end her presidential ...

She’s been in their crosshairs for many months.

Keep your eye on Europe. They’re doing what U.S. Democrats would do if they could.

The French government has jailed Marine Le Pen–a conservative who was, at the moment, the leading candidate in France’s current electoral season (https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/03/here-we-go-again-frances-globalist-macron-regime/).

She has been banned from public office, banned for five years from seeking public office–all on what sounds very much like a trumped-up charge of embezzlement.

In December Rumania jailed its leading presidential candidate.

In Brazil former president Jair Bolsonaro has been imprisoned.

By their fruits you know them. Globalist politicians have no intention of allowing personal liberty to survive. Free speech is on its way out.

Meanwhile here in America, Democrats tried to jail President Donald Trump, and used repeated impeachments in an effort to bring him down.

If they ever get back in power, watch out.

‘Dollars for Dog-Doo’ (2013)

Who, me? 

Sheesh! Remember this (https://leeduigon.com/2013/07/)? A condo “community” in York County, Pennsylvania, decided to make all-out war on residents who don’t pick up their dogs’ poops.

They have devised a fool-proof, fantastically expensive, of testing cast-off feces for DNA and then tracing the DNA to the guilty dog. Everybody’s fees will have to go up, to pay for this–even if you don’t have a dog. They’ll come after the neon tetras in your fish tank.

I don’t know how this turned out.

Oy Rodney – Lee Duigon

[Note: If you’re wondering where Oy, Rodney is, I haven’t yet found it today and anyhow I got up really tired today and I need to sit out in the sun for a while. I know, I know–you were all agog to get the latest news from Scurveyshire. Well, we’ll see.]

She Says She’s a Turtle

Where does fruitlessly fooling around end and genuine mental illness begin?

You Can’t Make This Up: Oregon’s MENTAL HEALTH Advisory Board Includes Member Who Identifies as a TURTLE

I think the likelihood is very high that this person does not, in fact, sincerely “identify as a turtle.” I think it’s doing something asinine because she’s convinced no one will stop her, no one will rein her in, and she can insult the whole state of Oregon with impunity. If she sincerely believed she was a turtle, she wouldn’t be wearing human clothes, would she?

And she has a quasi-governmental post! Governed by nincompoops. Way to go, Oregon. We thought we were badly off in New Jersey, but we don’t hold a candle to the sorry spectacle that your state has consented to become.

‘As Long as It’s Not More Than Two Murders…’

Wow! A bill in the Washington State Senate, SB5266-52, would grant early release to convicted murderers who… er, “only” committed two murders or less when they were 18 years old (https://legalinsurrection.com/2025/03/bill-could-allow-early-release-for-juvenile-killers-if-they-didnt-kill-more-than-two-people/).

The reason for letting them out of jail at 24 years old is–get this–is because the brain isn’t fully developed till the age of 24. 

Sounds like some state senators’ brains aren’t fully developed yet, either.

Oh! And they also want to give “rental vouchers” to released murderers. Out of jail early and live rent-free!

Of course, if you’ve murdered three victims or more, you’ll have to serve at least 20 years.

A similar bill has already failed in the Washington House. (The Senate to the rescue: “Let ’em out!”

Why do Democrat senators want to do this?

Damned if I know.

Loans for Tots!

There they go again–wasting our money that we worked for.

[Thanks to Susan for the nooze tip.]

I wonder if I could’ve gotten a car loan when I was ten years old. I can’t see my parents consenting to that. But that was then, and now is now–

The Golden Age of Government Tossing Public Money Around Like It Was Confetti.

The Dept. of Government Efficiency has reported $312 million in loans handed out to recipients 11 years old or younger (“children,” in plain English)–“thousands of loans,” says DOGE–almost 5,600 of them doled out in 2020-21 during the height of the COVID scare (https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2025/03/10/doge-says-children-aged-11-and-under-were-granted-312m-in-loans-during-coronavirus-pandemic/).

How is some kid supposed to repay such a loan? With proceeds from his paper route? A lemonade stand?

Meanwhile, the Social Security Administration has also been approving loans–supposedly–to persons well over 100 years old… who may or may not exist.

How did their records get so screwed up? They couldn’t have done it on purpose, could they? Just askin’.

Will Government Ease Up on Small Businesses?

Photo Mug (11 oz) of Sinbad & Old Man of Sea

Sinbad the Sailor had a frightful time with the Old Man of the Sea, who attached himself to Sinbad’s neck and shoulders and wouldn’t let go.

Our government is kind of like that, isn’t it?

Things may be getting better at the Dept. of the Treasury, though. A requirement that small businesses report to the feds all kinds of personal information… and do so every year!…looks like it’s going to be dropped. Secretary Scott Bessent called the move “a victory for common sense.”

Treasury Department Suspends the Enforcement of BOI that Forces Small Businesses to Report Personal Details About Their Owners to the Feds

They had been calling it Beneficial Ownership Information (BOI), although it’s awfully hard to see what’s beneficial about it. Violators were to be fined %591 per day of non-compliance, a $10,000 fine, and two years in prison.

Treasury has stopped enforcing the Corporate Transparency Act, of which BOI was a part.

Do you love those names they dream up for those government agencies? Try to figure out what they’re supposed to do.

For the time being, they’re backing off. I didn’t think the Old Man of the Sea knew how to do that.

They’re at It Again, the Bugmeisters…

Brazil in Crisis! The government’s solution? Eating crickets!

Have I got this pattern? Country turns socialist. By and by, basic necessities are harder and harder to get as prices soar up, up, and away. Socialist government starts campaign to get people to eat insects.

Finger-licking, slurpin’, bug-bitin’ good!

Brazil is the latest to audition for the role of Bug-Biter (https://gatewayhispanic.com/video/brazil-in-crisis-the-governments-solution-eating-crickets/). Inflation is killing food prices–meat up 20%, eggs up 40%. So…

Eat the insects, suckers!

What did the people of Brazil do to deserve this? Bad enough you’ve got a dictator who calls himself “Lula.” And now Lula wants you to eat crickets. Chirp, chirp. Not bad if you’re a lizard.

So they want you to eat bugs. I wonder if Lula ever sits down to a bowl of crunchy crickets. Yum, yum.

Thing is, these socialist tyrants always want their people perched on the edge of starvation and willing to do whatever the government says, to stave it off. Trotsky and Stalin would’ve had the Russians eating crickets, if Russia had had a shorter winter. Assorted Democrats have mentioned bug-eating as a pastime for Americans. I’d like to see them scarf down a mittful of mealworms.

Make no mistake out it, folks: our leaders despise us. “Lula” is only one of many rolled out by the tyrant factory. There are dozens of others like him.

They must all be put out of work.

 

 

 

 

 

 

They’re ‘Serious’ About ‘Censoring the American People’?

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

Every now and then a politician accidentally says something that’s true. Rep. Ayanna Preslet (D-Massachusetts–and please don’t say you’re surprised) fell into that trap recently .

“We’re willing to work with anyone who’s serious about censoring the American people and advancing progress.”

Yup, that’s what she said. Let the cat out of the bag. I wonder what kind of “progress” she has in mind. It would be good if we never found out.

Maybe it would’ve been fair to say, some years ago, that calling Democrats “evil” or “insane” or “toxic” was a mere rhetorical flourish, fit only to be ignored.

But I don’t think these evil people are exaggerating. Do you?

 

Oh, the Waste, Waste, Waste!

So you worked for that money? Work harder!

You won’t believe how they were spending your tax dollars when the Biden gang was in the White House. Be prepared to be appalled.

“We’ve found the grants,” proclaims the American Principles Project (https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/4295470/posts)–and boy, have they ever! They dug up 341 grants, to assorted government agencies and hangers-on, totaling $128 million in funds. (Click the link to see the big long list in its entirety.)

Everybody’s getting the goodies–Dept. of Defense, Dept. of Agriculture, “Sustainable Development”–oh! And a nice big chunk to “Support gender diverse people in Bangladesh.” We’re so glad they didn’t leave that out! “Woke Gender Ideology” surely deserves its share of your tax money.

But what’s $128 million to Democrats who piss away billions and even trillions without a second thought? It’s chicken feed! Besides, all those gender diverse people in Bangladesh are counting on you for support! You gonna let them down?

We worked for that money; and I don’t believe the crowd in D.C. respects that. Do you?

UK: Too Much Farmland?

Of course it’ll work! I’m the king, aren’t I?

Britain has too much farmland! So says the UK government, proposing that up to 10% of its farmland has to go (https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2025/02/01/great-reset-tenth-of-england-farmland-needs-to-be-rewilded-to-meet-green-agenda-says-govt-report/).

Aren’t you glad you live here instead?

The government says a tenth of Britain’s farmland must be “rewilded”–do you know what that means? I don’t!–in order to meet “climate goals.” They also want to raise farmers’ inheritance taxes. Hey! Maybe they could just wipe out family farms altogether.

Britain needs a new government, ASAP. They’re already importing some 40% of all the food they eat. What will they do if there’s another war and they, as an island nation, find themselves cut off by an enemy blockade? Didn’t think of that, did they?

I didn’t want to write up any nooze today; but this item certainly shows you what can happen when your country is ruled by environmental wackos.
