Tea at Trianon: "Politically incorrect"

John Wilson Croker on Marie-Antoinette

"We have followed the history of Marie Antoinette with the greatest diligence and scrupulosity. We have lived in those times. We have talked with some of her friends and some of her enemies; we have read, certainly not all, but hundreds of the libels written against her; and we have, in short, examined her life with– if we may be allowed to say so of ourselves– something of the accuracy of contemporaries, the diligence of inquirers, and the impartiality of historians, all combined; and we feel it our duty to declare, in as a solemn a manner as literature admits of, our well-matured opinion that every reproach against the morals of the queen was a gross calumny– that she was, as we have said, one of the purest of human beings."

~from History of the Guillotine by John Wilson Croker, 1844

Edmund Burke on Marie-Antoinette

"It is now sixteen or seventeen years since I saw the queen of France, then dauphiness, at Versailles; and surely there never lighted on this orb, which she hardly seemed to touch, a more delightful vision. I saw her just above the horizon, decorating and cheering the elevated sphere she had just begun to move in, glittering like a morning star full of life and splendor and joy. Oh, what a revolution....Little did I dream that I should have lived to see such disasters fall upon her, in a nation of gallant men, in a nation of men of honor and of cavaliers! I thought ten thousand swords must have leaped from their scabbards, to avenge even a look which threatened her with insult. But the age of chivalry is gone; that of sophisters, economists, and calculators has succeeded...."

~Edmund Burke, October 1790

"Politically incorrect"

From Tierney's Real News:

Many so-called ‘influencers’ and the fake news are finally reporting about the Somali community in Minnesota as if it’s ‘breaking news’ and all this just started yesterday.
NOPE, it started around 20 years ago and has gotten increasingly out of control every year! I was one of the FIRST to cover it in Minnesota in 2018 and I couldn’t get ANY of the local news outlets to cover my reporting. They were all afraid to be called racists.
You can thank President Trump for being “politically incorrect” enough to get the fake news to cover it now!
8 years ago, in 2018, I reported a conversation on Facebook that I had with two local Somali men in Minneapolis as well as with their “handlers” in the Minnesota Koch Libertarian party.

Here’s my personal experience talking to Somalis in Minnesota from 2018:

TIERNEY: “Yesterday, I had long social media conversations with two Somali Muslim gentlemen from Minneapolis, Minnesota. I asked them about their goals for improving Minnesota and how they feel about being an American. I also asked them about the million dollar upgrade at Cedar Riverside public housing that Mayor Jacob Frey promised its majority Somali residents this week. After I was called a racist, a fascist, a bigot, stupid and old, here’s what else they shared with me. Nearly verbatim.

SOMALI MEN: “Get with the program, miss. We are here to stay. We never left our Somali heritage or culture. That’s what America is missing. Please stop forcing us to your ways. You’re old and have very old ideas. Get with the program. I’m trying to have my son to be the first Muslim black governor of the state of Minnesota in next 20 years. He’s gonna run as a Democrat.
Oh, and on those upgrades at Cedar Riverside. They better give us those upgrades and changes if the Mayor wants to earn our votes. Or else we can always get another Mayor next time around. You see how being an American works? I told you lady please get with the program because Somalis are the latest addition to black folks.
Why should we assimilate? Do you know how stupid you sound? Guess what? We’re here to stay and will transform America for the better. Get that through your thick, ignorant skull. You need to see a doctor. It’s inevitable that Somalis will be taking over and there isn’t anything you can do about it.
Again, what’s wrong with Somalis taking over? It is inevitable! This land doesn’t belong to either of us. It is our time to populate it and rule it. Go back to Europe or wherever you’re from if you don’t like it.”

Then I was contacted by two Somali leaders working with a Libertarian organization (the Koch Libertarians were helping the Somali leaders behind the scenes - contrary to what they said publicly) who asked me to support security at Cedar Riverside because the Somali elders feared their own Somali youth!

From Overton News:

That’s when Secretary Kristi Noem dropped a bombshell that shook the Cabinet Room.

She revealed that President Trump asked her to investigate billions in taxpayer fraud in Tim Walz’s Minnesota, and what she uncovered is shocking.
Then she took aim at Walz directly and TORCHED him in front of everyone.
“You know, you told me to look into Minnesota and their fraud on visas and their programs.”

“50% of them are fraudulent, which means that that wacko Governor Walz either is an idiot or he did it on purpose…and I think he’s both, sir.”

“He brought people in there illegally that never should have been in this country. Said they were somebody that they’re not. They said they were married to somebody who was their brother or somebody else.”

“Fraudulent visa applications signed up for government programs took hundreds of billions of dollars from the taxpayers.”

“And we’re going to remove them and we’re going to get our money back, and we’re going to this next year, make sure that we only put people in leadership positions in this country that love this country and have its back.”
Noem’s remarks landed like a political thunderclap. (Read more.)
