John Rogers:
There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old’s life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs."

The comment amounts to "I don't agree with racists peddling lies, but..."

Apparently, he thinks a declining (white) birth rate in England and Wales is "one of the most serious *global* problems."

The UK population increased by 1.1% in 2024, but that was because of...you know.
A racist white guy thinks declining white population is a global problem.

I'm amazed by the number of people on this thread who didn't even skim the article and missed the screamingly obvious point.

The issue isn't the Jumbotron. It's that the story has gone massively viral. Anyway, read the article, which is very good.

On a hunch, I googled photos of her before she went full Trumpkin. The shot below is from 2014.

She went full-on sex doll to appeal to Trump.

Isn't this the opposite of breaking news?

Unbroken news?

Just checked it: he's dumber than Chat GPT:

The conversation with Jeffrey Goldberg is definitely worth reading, but he gives those clowns way more credit than he should. What does this mean? What should the Biden administration have done -- annihilated the region?

Also, nothing in his piece showed anything like a "serious conversation."
Describing the clown show that planned the attack on the Houthis, Goldberg bizarrely claims "Oh, yeah. I ran all the possibilities through my head. You know, the funny thing is, when they’re having their policy conversation—policy disagreements—I was struck by the sophistication of the arguments. Some were, you know, sort of knee-jerk, anti-Europe kind of invective that one expects, but they were having a serious conversation about what to do about a challenging problem—a problem, by the way, they were left with by the Biden administration, which did not handle that situation well or adequately."
