The professor was Ferdinand von Prondzynski, at the time President of Dublin City University.

VDARE.com Editor Peter Brimelow writes: This remarkable article appeared on the official website of the National Party of Ireland (An Páirtí Náisiúnta), April 25, 2017. We have added some explanatory hyperlinks links and pictures. The leader of the National Party, Justin Barrett, recently posted a powerful video pointing out the incompatibility of mass non-traditional immigration and "the Historic Irish Nation"—a point VDARE.com regularly makes relative to the Historic American Nation, although in Ireland's case the concept dates back to Pádraig Pearse, one of the leaders of the 1916 Easter Rising.[The Spiritual Nation, February 13th, 1916]

On the 18th of April, 2017,  Úna-Minh Kavanagh posted a message on Twitter, under #WeAreIrish, complaining that “our ads, our broadcasters and tourism material” were dominated by “white faces.” This resulted predictably in a backlash. The backlash was picked up, predictably, by the media and framed by them in the most manipulative way possible. In short, “racists attack woman for demanding her human-rights.”

Úna-Minh Kavanagh is a young Vietnamese woman and Irish citizen who was raised from childhood by an Irish family in Kerry. She has become a poster child for the New Ireland we keep hearing about. Evidence, we are told, that mass-immigration is no big deal because everyone assimilates and becomes Irish. Such is the new State-Individualist paradigm of Irish nationality. Read more >>

Has President Donald Trump outsourced foreign policy to the generals?

So it would seem. Candidate Trump held out his hand to Vladimir Putin. He rejected further U.S. intervention in Syria other than to smash ISIS.

He spoke of getting out and staying out of the misbegotten Middle East wars into which Presidents Read more >>

Happy Easter—Let’s Burn Trump In Effigy!

The Easter season just ended in Mexico. One of the local customs, usually on Sábado de Gloria (the day between Good Friday and Easter Sunday), is the Quema de Judas, the Burning of Judas. An effigy, with fireworks inside, is set on fire. It represents Judas Iscariot and it also represents an unpopular contemporary figure, usually a politician. Thus a traditional folk religious custom is combined with political expression. Excelsior reported from Central Mexico:

Residents of the popular barrio [proletarian neighborhood] of Arbolito, in Pachuca, completed the traditional burning of Judas, which on this occasion was personified by a cardboard mannequin in the form of the president of the United States, Donald Trump.

“We’re going to do the world a favor” declared the Trump effigy-burners. Reportedly they were in a good humor. Burning and blowing up stuff is fun, and their figure of hatred is attacked by the Mexican Main Stream Media 24/7, which makes it even better for them. Read more >>

Fake News' question of the week: Will Trump risk a government shutdown over the wall?

The media flip back and forth on who's to blame for a government shutdown depending on which branch is controlled by Republicans. But the "shutdown" hypothetical in this case is a trick question.

A failure to build the wall IS a government shutdown.

Of course it would be unfortunate if schoolchildren couldn't visit national parks and welfare checks didn't get mailed on time. But arranging White House tours isn't the primary function of the government.

The government's No. 1 job is to protect the nation.

This has always been true, but it's especially important at this moment in history, when we have drugs, gang members, diseases and terrorists pouring across our border. The failure of the government to close our border is the definition of a government shutdown. Read more >>

Are you freaking kidding me? Thirteen-term Democratic Congresswoman Maxine Waters, Beltway barnacle permanently affixed to USS Government, is now the fresh-faced "rock star" of the Democratic Party.

"Auntie Maxine" is stoking the resistance, inspiring millennials, combating hate, crusading against corruption and invoking the counterinsurgent cry to "stay woke!"

Update: The Hill reports that Ann Coulter plans to speak in the open air at Sproul Plaza on Thursday.

It’s not clear, as we go to pixel, whether Ann Coulter’s Berkeley address is going ahead Thursday. What is clear: the alleged necessity to curtail free speech is, in the tweet of Cato Institute’s Walter Olson, “steadily catching on as the elite view”, e.g. What ‘Snowflakes’ Get Right About Free Speech, by Ulrich Baer, New York Times, April 24, 2017; Why Colleges Have a Right to Reject Hateful Speakers Like Ann Coulter, by Aaron R. Hanson, New Republic, April 24, 2017. It’s a salutary reminder that, whatever President Trump’s failures, a President Clinton would have unquestionably meant a drift to anti-“hate speech” totalitarianism as in Canada and Europe. And the Main Stream Media would have applauded.

Venezuela’s socialist President Hugo Chavez once said: “I am not myself, I am the people.” Like many dictators, he viewed himself as embodying his constituents.
