5. Shapiro
This one’s not dying away. Why would Shapiro speak of EK murdering CK? My first thought is that, by definition, it separates her from the Z***ist lobby and A*P*C. Therefore Christian. My stance is that I don’t know and could not know. However, I can surmise about double and triple crosses. By accusing EK on MK casts her into Team CK which, if she is Z***ist lobby, is an effective way of fooling people on a national show.
Once more … I simply cannot know, nor can most of our readers, I surmise.

a) Jihad in France. From Paris to the small church of Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray, passing by the supermarket in Trèbes or by the middle school in Bois d’Aulne, the assiduous observer of French fractures looks back…..
b) Ten years after the most horrific Jihad…..On Thursday, November 13, France paid tribute to the 132 victims of the Paris attacks, ten years later, with…..
c) Three men were arrested on November 8, 2025, at Nantes Airport (Loire-Atlantique), while attempting to travel to Canada with fake passports and silicone masks.
d) The slow death of the German Christmas Market. Is Germany surrendering one of its best-loved festive traditions to violent extremists?
2. Tina Peters
First the latest:
This is a clear case of people in charge v an individual who had been an official in the election process but then whistleblew. The wiki entry is the state’s case, talking of “conspiracy theories” about missing boxes of ballots in Mesa County and tampered with voting machines … it’s the one involving Jena Griswold.
During the proceedings, her son, a paratrooper, died when his parachute failed to open, making her a “Gold Star mom”. Yet she’s in prison for nine years for tampering with election machines and hiding proof of election stealing.
Donald Trump has “ordered” her released on compassionate grounds but nothing has happened. It’s like a Pammy indictment or promise. She was not one of those pardoned the other day. The issue from her side is that she has categorical proof and is intractable on it, even more so now.

Thursday [16 till close of play]
(1709) Evening all.
21. Running out of steam, readers, for tonight
… but one issue I’ve saved some X text on is this secret thing Senators snuck in paying themselves millions in order to lift the shutdown. Exact details are best read at Last Refuge for now.
20. Another where the foreign language is not necessarily a barrier
… not completely anyway. You know what her views are, retweeted by Kassandra, she writes of Bruesseler Buerokratie, then EU-Superstaat. Think you get the idea.

16. Redaction issue with the X links (Steve’s comment)
If you’re on X, no issue … just click the links. If you’re not, then there is an issue this time … it’s quite fragmented and involves mixed media. It’s on the topic of DJT. In one, some man is having a TDS fit about DJT and some girls, in another, Crockett has no idea what she’s talking about on CNN, such that they pull her up on her “facts”.
The Demonrats are going all out, just after the end of the shutdown, to say the redacted name in an accusation about topless girls was DJT. It was not so and the best way I can put it is to grab one screenshot, which is of Virginia G:
There was also this:
In October 2016, so-called journalist Michael Wolff was conspiring with convicted child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein to “finish” Trump. A few months later, Wolff was granted several months of all-access privileges in the Trump White House. Make it make sense.
JH: The thing which is puzzling so many in MAGA is DJT’s lack of judgement about snakes purporting to be his friend, from McCarthy to Bolton. The only explanation I can see is SJT’s blanket view that he meets everyone as honest until they prove they’re not. Much, much later. After many, many chances.
But these are not other businessmen, they are agents on a mission to take him down. By definition, they are dishonest, otherwise they’re not representing their paymasters properly. One I don’t trust is Bessent, while Rubio is a neocon.

Louie Louie
Not to be confused with some mid 80s Brother Louie thing, first came El loco cha cha:
Not difficult to see how Richard Berry (1957) worked that into his own song about a man wanting to return to his Caribbean darling by boat:
Fine little girl she waits for me
Me catch the ship for cross the sea
I sail the ship all alone
I never think me make it home
Three nights and days me sail the sea
Me think of girl constantly
On the ship I dream she there
I smell the rose in her hair
Me see Jamaica moon above
It won’t be long, me see my love
Me take her in my arms and then
I tell her I never leave again
He’s probably drunk, telling the barman, Louie, about his pining for this girl, maybe all Jamaican girls. If just one, this is one very romantic song, and with him being from the Louisiana area, with a doo wop background, I can feel that pining … I did myself, only I went by air.
Poor guy, bad choices, being ripped off, he missed out on $millions$ until long after The Kingsmen … it was finally rectified to a point.
Now The Kingsmen (1963), white boys from Portland, Oregon, and there was quite a story in it even being recorded. They had access to a studio for an hour, there were disputes over who’d sing, who’d drum, strings were pulled above, the drums overwhelmed the vocals, the drummer dropped a stick midway (you can hear the expletive), the singer and band miscued after the instrumental … it was a most amateurish job and yet … and yet … the untrained voice, the time in rock history when The Yardbirds were around, the way white boys were always a chance to go viral … there was every chance this cranked up version with the howled vocals would be a megahit.
And it was. My thoughts are I like all three versions in the post … quite different in many ways, all holding their own to my mind, The Kingsmen version maybe having the edge … it’s now a staple … one reactor to it scrolled down through the bands and singers who have covered it, including marching bands … it’s quite iconic:
Had to smile at this comment:
Certainly doesn’t. It’s real fratboy stuff and the singer, Jack Ely, made a meal out of the slurred verses, which you can read above. Then the FBI hit three houses looking for the obscene lyrics … absolutely fab publicity, the young people loved it all. Radio stations pulled it from airplay … the Streisand effect set in.
Yep, I love the song, especially as it’s about love pined for, nothing untoward unless you want it to be. But the number of reactors on YT who had simply not done their homework was astounding. Plus the blacks in general did not like the calypso rhythm. Interesting.
In 1972, through Toots and the Maytalls, the first really professional reggae version came out and it’s the goods all right. I especially like the underwater bubble guitar ending … this is the most genuine version for that culture to my mind but I still like the other versions too.

We need to run with what we have for now (soon to run out), so one more of The Saint. Oh for women to still be womanly … sigh.
“Simon Templar meets Valerie North on a flight from New York to Paris. Valerie is traveling to meet her brother, Charles, whom she has not seen since childhood, due to their separation during World War II.
Upon arrival in Paris, police inform Valerie that her brother has been found murdered in the River Seine. The St. Christopher medal he wore around his neck was stolen. Simon decides to help her investigate the crime.
It is revealed that Valerie possesses an identical medal. The two medals together are the key to a valuable secret, likely related to stolen antiques or money linked to the Nazis during the war.
The main villain is Georges Olivant, a Nazi collaborator who worked with Charles during the war. Olivant kidnaps Valerie to get her medal and discover the secret. Simon must uncover the connection between the medals and the wartime treachery to rescue Valerie and bring Olivant to justice.
The episode is known for its fast pace, strong writing, and a more gritty tone than typical for the series, featuring flashbacks to wartime resistance heroism and an exploration of the raw memory of collaboration in post-war Europe. “
JH: Looking at that thumbnail, sorry to bore you further on male-female but I always tried to move her into a position of control should she wish, which sitting like that did, while she was trying to get me thinking I was in control … whilst she was actually all along. It worked until the harder stuff was required, via her signal … whole thing is a constant dance is it not? Or game of chess.

9. DAD on Guido on Britland
Guido reports…
Latest figures from the ONS show GDP grew by just 0.1% in July to September, slower than economists’ expected 0.2%.That’s down from the previous quarter of 0.3%. And the worst performance in nearly two years…
GDP fell by 0.1% in September. Grim reading for Reeves…
UPDATE: Shadow Chancellor Mel Stride said:…
“Today’s ONS figures show the economy shrank in the latest month, under a Prime Minister and Chancellor who are in office but not in power.”

Thursday [6]
There’s an argument I’m going to try to put, despite choruses of “what utter bollox” … and it’s this:
- It’s not a great plan to just post endless pop and folk nostalgia, as for every song I posted, readers would either summarily dismiss “that pop rubbish” or else would be into it, but quite different songs to those I’d choose, from eras I’m not into.
- For example, if some of us say we like “jazz”, then I’d include THIS as jazz … but jazz, to others, might be some 50s Felonious Monk or some saxophonist making late evening slinky, squeaking noises from his instrument in a smoky piano bar … hence just trad for me please.
- However, should certain songs be intrinsic to the history of the era, then I’d maybe play two, max three in a post here to illustrate the point being argued.
- And one thing becoming increasingly apparent to lil ole me is that speaking of “the 50s” or “the 60s” is a misnomer or mis-datum or whatever. Post-war, there’s more of a case, imho, that decades should be called 55 to 65, 65 to 75, 75 to 85 etc. … more awkward, yes, but more accurate.
- I’d call 45 to 55 as coming out of the big band, orchestral era, then using sax and keyboards to a greater extent in the 55 to 65 era, give or take, then taking a turn downwards into screeching, strident, showoff guitars (e.g. metal) in the 65 to 75 era, pre-punk … nastier era.
- And thus, I’m going to commit heresy and say I don’t like how the Beatles and Stones ruined pop music. This was how it was in 55 to 65 (hear the intro by the artist):
- I’m by no means saying it’s “great” music … it’s danceable, which was its purpose, sing-able … it was happy music, Friday or Saturday night music, not clever nor complicated like Pink Floyd or ELP, super serious about selves … it was fun, that was all, for relatively innocent kids.
- This illustrates the point even better:
- Going to finish up this first post of two (the second and final being about Louie Louie sometime later) … finish with the B side to that song just now … their song about “Little Donna” and before I play it, please note:
To my mind, the Beatles stink in their attitudes … their song was 1976, the Rivieras in 1964. And another thing … dancing should be joined together, one male, one female, occasionally breaking to show off at each other for a couple of bars.
