Live Around the Planet: Thursday April 15th
Today, Thursday, I'll be conducting another edition of our Clubland Q&A, live around the world at 4pm Eastern time in North America - that's 8pm GMT/9pm British Summer Time. We'll try to pin down the rest of the time zones below, but do, as they say, check local listings. On today's rundown, I'm happy to take questions on the topics I've been chewing over in print, audio or video in recent days - including last night's Tucker, in which we noted the fact that, while there is chaos on the southern border and a sudden planned expansion of the present nine-judge Supreme Court to a thirteen-judge bench, The Washington Post is running puff pieces on Kamala Harris's enthusiasm for crocheting.

Laura's LinksMy Tuchus is Infrastructure
Laura Rosen Cohen on the great reawokening, racist fonts, and how anything and everything is infrastructure in Biden's America... Politics & Current AffairsVigil, Lockdown and Courage
To my fellow Granite Staters, Happy General John Stark Day. For non-Granite Staters, if you've ever wondered where that "Live free or die" motto on New Hampshire license plates comes from, well, he's the guy who said it. For the second year running, public observances of the "Live free or die" guy are non-existent because of Covid restrictions. Which symbolism seems vaguely parodic somehow. ~If I needed another reason to be anti-Permanent Emergency, it came with the death of the Duke of Edinburgh. The obsequies of great figures is one thing the British do better than anyone. The Vigil of the Princes, for example, is a "tradition" invented on the fly upon the death of George V and revived for the lying in state of the Queen Mum nineteen ...

Steyn on CultureThe Perversion of Public Discourse
On last Thursday's Fox News Primetime, I mentioned a small but telling news item on the latest benefit accorded to illegal aliens. Whenever you fly anywhere in America, you require picture ID - so that, when you get to the head of the great endless security line, the TSA agent can get out his jeweler's loupe and examine how the ink lies on the paper. And, when he's finished doing that, he can fish out his UV light to study the watermark on your ID. Which is all bollocks even by the standards of American security-state bureaucracy. Why bother going to all the tedious trouble of fake ID when real ID is so easy to acquire? On September 11th 2001, four of the terrorists boarded the flight...
