The Brew: Democrats Cave, Might Re-Open Government Even Without Free Sex Changes for Illegal Aliens

When people cite “welcome the stranger” as if it were the only verse in the Bible, and required no interpretation, you might not always think through what they really have in mind. This is the outcome they’re seeking, whether they have the intellectual honesty required to admit it. Check out this video from a traditional Christmas market in Germany, invaded by military-age Muslim colonists imported by the government:

Muslims invade Christmas markets in Germany as a show of force

This is what Pope Leo XIV and the U.S. Catholic bishops, and Christianity Today, and the “Third Way” churches that bash Donald Trump, want for our future. They claim that the Gospel demands this. Of course, if Christian faith required our mass surrender to Muslim invaders — or other suicidal policies such as universal celibacy — we might re-examine whether it was actually true, given how it clashed with the commands God gave us in the Old Testament.

But that’s Screwtape’s whole point in promoting woke Christianity: to convince us that the Gospel is a suicide note, so we toss it aside and embrace paganism, racialism, or other wicked worldviews. The Enemy wants you to think that Our Lord demands chaos and evil:

Is there a middle ground between embracing ugly tribalism for our own groups in self-defense, and turning conservatism into a hollow ideology that abandons our legitimate self-interests? I try to sketch out where the Golden Mean between those extremes might lie in this essay over at Chronicles Magazine. The key takeaway:

Western nations are now inundated with millions of foreigners more religiously zealous than virtually any Westerner, whose creed obliges them to attempt religious conquest. Elites from the United Nations to the Vatican insist these people are entitled to an open-handed welcome, limitless public support, and even “reparations.” Priests in Catholic Spain are prosecuted for “hate speech” when they give accurate criticisms of Islamic doctrine.

In such a real-world context, how helpful is it for the right to claim that all it really wants to “conserve” are principles such as human equality before God?

Hispanic Gang Issues “Shoot to Kill” Orders on ICE Agents

When the legitimate authorities of a democratic state abandon the enforcement of just laws, the result isn’t permanent anarchy. That’s just a very brief phase, en route to a new and horrifying tyranny — as hapless citizens of Germany learned when they found their government slide from Weimar chaos to Nazi dictatorship after 1933. If our elites, churches, and judges strip the president of the power to control our national borders and deport invaders, there won’t be a permanent power vaccuum, but rather a short respite until a new set of powerbrokers step in to impose order.

In Chicago, Illinois, where the local authorities have told police to obstruct ICE agents enforcing federal law, a new force has stepped up to exercise its authority: the Hispanic gang called the Latin Kings. Gateway Pundit reports:

Leadership of the Latin Kings, one of the largest Hispanic street gangs in the world, has authorized a “shoot on sight” directive toward federal agents, mainly Border Patrol Agents, involved in Chicago’s “Operation Midway Blitz.”

Border Patrol Agents this weekend conducted immigration enforcement operations in Chicago.

According to NewsNation Correspondent Ali Bradley, the Latin Kings are now targeting Border Patrol Agents.

#EXCLUSIVE Latin Kings leadership is authorizing a “shoot on sight” directive specifically towards Border Patrol agents involved in “Operation Midway Blitz” according to an internal alert I obtained via sources.

Here’s the text from the alert:

BBC Leaders Forced to Resign for Stalinist Editing of President Trump’s Words

But hey, you can trust the media, can’t you — and anyone who says otherwise is just a “conspiracy theorist.” Except that sometimes state media, funded by taxpayers, in NATO countries, just can’t resist the opportunity to butcher the words of the U.S. president in order to support official narratives promoted by the Deep State. For instance, the British Broadcast Corporation:

This is a total disgrace. The BBC has doctored footage of Trump to make it look as though he incited a riot – when he in fact said no such thing. We have Britain’s national broadcaster using a flagship programme to tell palpable untruths about Britain’s closest ally. Is anyone at…
