Maybe this time good St. Pat can start with the snakes in public office, for example, their wretched Taoiseach.

Hope everyone’s being moderate on Amateur Night.

FMJRA 2.0: Holding Our Own

Posted on | March 16, 2026 | No Comments

— compiled by Wombat-socho

Another 3-2 week for the Senators as we cling to second place in the Beta Division. We took two out of three at Fenway, losing only to Don Gullett as the Sox pounded poor Steve Renko for seven runs on their way to a 10-1 blowout win. Then it was off to Anaheim where the Angels scraped out a 2-1 win against Pat Dobson, only to fall 6-3 as we scored four runs off Tommy John and got two more off the Angels’ bullpen. So here we are at 60-64, nine games behind the Twins and five ahead of Pete’s Brewers, who we’ll face Tuesday before going to KC to take on the Royals. This could be the week we hit .500.

The Terrorist and the 12th District

Posted on | March 13, 2026 | No Comments

Two decades ago, the phrase “Dearbornistan” became common among conservative bloggers during the Global War on Terror, because of the notorious cluster of Islamic radicals in the Detroit surburb of Dearborn.

As soon as I heard about Thursday’s attack on a synagogue in West Bloomfield — before anything had been reported about the suspect’s identity — I checked to see how far the synagogue was from Dearborn. It’s about 20 miles, but the distance is a bit shorter to Dearborn Heights, which is six miles west of Dearborn itself. Both communities are part of Michigan’s 12th Congressional District, which sends Democratic “Squad” member Rep. Rashida Tlaib to Congress. She is despicable:

Rashida Tlaib is the least mediagenic of the three founding members of the Squad who entered Congress in 2019 (the others are Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Ilhan Omar), but she is arguably the most venomous, and indeed, the most dangerous. On August 29 [2025], she spoke at the People’s Conference for Palestine in Detroit, and significantly enhanced the reputation she had already amassed for harsh, ugly rhetoric, strident hatred of Israel, and unashamed anti-Americanism. And so the inevitable question arises: what has happened to us as a nation that there are people of this perspective in Congress, and what kind of long-term damage might they do to the strength and unity of our nation?

The idea that this rabid fanatic was “praying” for members of the West Bloomfield synagogue is rather ludicrous, considering that it was one of her pro-Hezbollah constituents who committed the attack:

Armed FBI agents executed a search warrant at a home in Michigan overnight Thursday, believed to be in connection with the synagogue attacker who rammed a vehicle into a Jewish house of worship earlier in the day.
Video shows agents outside a brick home in Dearborn Heights, a city in Wayne County, using a long battering tool to break a front window before making entry. Law enforcement told WJBK/FOX 2 Detroit they were conducting a search warrant.
The raid came hours after a suspect rammed a vehicle into Temple Israel, a large Reform synagogue in West Bloomfield, around 12:20 p.m. local time.
The suspect, identified as Ayman Mohamad Ghazali, 41, allegedly rammed the synagogue and opened fire at security guards with a rifle, authorities said. Armed security returned fire and shot him dead.
During the incident, the vehicle caught fire, filling the building with smoke. All staff and 140 students were evacuated, FOX 2 Detroit reported. . . .
Multiple law enforcement sources and federal authorities said the suspect entered the United States as the spouse of a U.S. citizen roughly 15 years ago during the Obama administration and was granted citizenship in 2016.
Ghazali, born in Lebanon on Jan. 4, 1985, entered the U.S. through Detroit Metropolitan International Airport on May 10, 2011, on an IR1 immigrant visa, according to DHS.
He later applied for naturalization in October 2015 and was granted U.S. citizenship on Feb. 5, 2016.

Dead men tell no tales, but the motive is obvious:

A Lebanese official told The Associated Press that Ghazali recently lost four family members, his two brothers, a niece and a nephew, in an Israeli airstrike in Mashgharah, Lebanon, during the ongoing conflict in the Middle East. . . .
Sky News and NBC reported that Ghazali’s two brothers were members of Hezbollah, the Iranian-backed militant group.

Mashgharah is known as a Hezbollah stronghold in the Bekaa Valley region, and the question that must be asked is, why are we importing people from Lebanese terrorist strongholds? My guess: Democrats need foreign voters to elect scum like Rashida Tlaib to Congress.

‘Thou Shalt Not Bear False Witness Against Thy Neighbour’ (Exodus 12:16)

Posted on | March 12, 2026 | No Comments

Not every day I quote the King James Bible in a headline, but it seems that some people don’t understand why the Ninth Commandment is so important that God felt the need to include it in the Top Ten.

Making false accusations is both a sin and a crime, and it can also be a tort — libel or slander — although as a society we have allowed this sin to go unpunished so often that some people think they can get away with it. If you’re wondering about the mug shot at the top of this post, she once broke the Ninth Commandment without suffering any consequences, but then she later broke another commandment, and was sent to prison.

She walked out of the North Carolina Correctional Institution for Women last month, having served her time. When I saw the news of her release, I checked the calendar and discovered that tomorrow, March 13, is the 20th anniversary of a notorious event in North Carolina:

March 13, 2006, was a Monday night, and one might suppose that the Allure Escort Service in Durham, North Carolina, would have had many adult entertainers available for the occasion. For some reason that was never adequately explained, however, while the lacrosse team captains had reportedly requested white strippers, the two performers sent to 610 North Buchanan Boulevard were a 31-year-old mixed-race woman, Kim Roberts (half-black, half-Korean), and Ms. Mangum, a black woman who was then 27. This contributed a racial aspect to the subsequent controversy that had a magnetic effect in attracting national media attention. . . .

You can read the rest of my latest column at The American Spectator.
