Trump should take lessons in lying from Joe Biden

It snowed on the last two days of August up here, and why not? We’ve traded freedom of speech for freedom from speech, so on an upside-down planet, snow in the Alps in August is the new normal. The world is suddenly a grim place, a sick prank when you think about it. It’s a kamikaze fantasy with the bad guys winning and being cheered on by the left and the media. The virus is now a metaphor, religion having been cast aside by the global elite who follow only their interests and think of the rest of us as cannon fodder.

Reading the papers a couple of weeks ago, I noticed that only Daniel Hannan in the Sunday Telegraph referred to the fact that 100 years ago Joseph Pilsudski, in the Miracle of the Vistula, saved the western world from godless communism by stopping the Soviet hordes from extending into Weimar Germany. Imagine the coverage and celebrations if it had been the other way round. Europe owes Poland its freedom but you wouldn’t know it the way the media and the EU treat that great Catholic country. In America most leading journalists — propagandists rather — are still smitten with leftism, and continue to feed the public lies about mob rule as they did back then about communism. The New York Times Moscow correspondent Walter Duranty, a Stalin pimp, targeted foreign reporters who defected from the party line. Many were recalled. Stalinist horrors went unreported, just as today Antifa and BLM urban guerrilla looters and inciters of violence are downplayed by the Times and presented as peaceful protestors.

Yep, Poland saved millions from tyranny but we have Polish jokes rather than Belgian ones. We mistrust our Polish plumbers but spread our cheeks and bow down to Saudi child killers in Yemen.
