Independent Voter Site Balladeer’s Blog is here with a Monday current events roundup from an America where 2026 Democrats long to unleash the kinds of destruction going on in France and Italy. The rioters conveniently left Muslim businesses unharmed. The “students” nonsense about the Urban Warfare – in France especially – reminds me of the way corporate media kept calling the terrorists who seized the American embassy in 1979 Teheran “students”, too.

RIPLEY and the other humans in the Alien films are American VOTERS. As we struggle to survive in this dangerous setting we need to stand together against the common threats. And that applies whether a voter considers themselves Independent or Democrat or Republican. Political labels have become meaningless for US as the Neo-Feudalists view all of us as peasants and cannon fodder, anyway.
