Crazed women abused children

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-68353302

“A Utah mother whose harsh parenting advice made her a YouTube influencer has been sentenced to at least four years in prison for child abuse.

The two women were arrested in August 2023 after Franke’s malnourished 12-year-old son climbed out of a window at Hildebrandt’s house in Ivins, Utah. Police said the child then ran to a neighbour’s house and asked for food and water. He had lacerations from being tied up with rope, according to police records.

 “[YouTube] fans started to become suspicious in 2020, when one of her sons mentioned that he had been forced to sleep on a bean bag for seven months.

YouTube viewers combed through her archives and pointed out other disturbing and controversial methods used by Franke – such as withholding food, threatening to chop the head off a toy stuffed animal and “cancelling” Christmas as a punishment.

Franke then began appearing in YouTube videos posted by Ms Hildebrandt – a counsellor and life coach – on her site, ConneXions Classroom.

Away from the camera, however, Franke’s children were being subjected to even harsher abuse.

This included tying them up, beating and kicking them, neglecting to feed them and forcing them to work outdoors in the summer without sunscreen, resulting in serious sunburn, according to police records.

In a plea agreement, Hildebrandt stated that she either tortured the children or was aware of the abuse and that she forced one of Franke’s daughters to “jump into a cactus multiple times”.

Terrible, and comes against a background of too-strict American parenting, though plenty of too-indulgent parenting exists there too. I concede that, as someone without offspring, I write as a mere observer. I do think, though, that many Americans are too strict with their children, but I admit that I have also seen much of the opposite tendency (children allowed to behave and speak rather rudely).

Some type of civil war is coming. It may be in 2025, it may be in 2035 or later, but it is coming…

As to Matt Goodwin, I am wondering why he appears to be bolstering the electoral case for not only Reform UK but also the Conservative Party.

Having said that, I doubt whether anything can now save the Conservative Party, let alone the little Indian money-juggler, Sunak.

As Powell said, “we must be mad, literally mad“, but it is not the British people themselves but a small minority —at Westminster, in the newspapers, on TV and radio, in the legal professions and the universities etc— who are the guilty parties.

In fact, the British people as a whole do bear at least some of the guilt, for being so apathetic as to allow themselves to be repressed and then, as is now happening, replaced.

Nearly 100%, in fact, because almost all of the remaining 8% will be births to first, or second, or third-generation non-white women, and a relative few to white women but first/second/third-generation immigrant fathers. Hardly any to white couples.

My daughter is two years-old. She’s already lived through three prime ministers, four chancellors, two monarchs, a global pandemic, and wars in Ukraine and the Middle East. What will she live through in the years ahead, I often wonder?

It’s a question most parents ask themselves. And it’s one I asked myself again yesterday while reading a new forecast on how Britain’s population will change over the next twelve years —which is not a very long time at all.

The forecast, from the independent Office for National Statistics, is striking to say the least. And I suspect many people out there in the country, many of the people who are perhaps reading this Substack, will find it deeply worrying.

By the year 2036, by the time my daughter turns fifteen, Britain’s population will have grown by another 6.6 million people. In just fifteen years, in just three election cycles, the population will surge by 10 per cent, rising from 67 million people to nearly 74 million. And of the additional 6.6 million people in the country —another 6.6 million people using the NHS, the GPs, the schools, the roads, and looking for a house to buy or rent— some 6.1 million will be here because of immigration.

The Gaza slaughter is only continuing because the Jewish lobby in the USA now effectively controls, as it has done since at least the 1960s, both U.S. policy in Washington and, also, the American mass media, thus cheerleading the largely-ignorant and easily-led American masses.

Boris Johnson asked for 1 million in “US dollars, gold or bitcoins” for an interview on the situation in Ukraine, Tucker Carlson said. The journalist reported the politician’s demand to Blaze.

Carlson tried to arrange an interview with the former British Prime Minister, who called him a “tool of the Kremlin” because of the interview with Putin. But he asked him for a meeting for 1 million in “US dollars, gold or bitcoins”:

“I’m not defending Putin, but Putin didn’t ask me for a million dollars. So Boris Johnson is a much more slippery and nasty guy than Vladimir Putin.”

Does that idiot even believe what he is saying? Ukraine (Kiev regime) cannot “win”. It cannot regain the oblasti of Donetsk, Lugansk (and/or Crimea etc). It cannot attack, in any serious way, Russia itself.

It could only achieve those objectives by drawing NATO directly into the war (leading, probably, to a world war), or by somehow contriving a palace revolution in Moscow. Neither of those possibilities is likely to take place.

I have been wondering why the Western msm obsession with Navalny. Was it because, after the death of Boris Nemtsov, Navalny was the only high-profile opposition figure in Russia? Like Nemtsov, his support was only about 5% of the population, and could never have reached even 20%.

Navalny did get 27% in the Moscow Mayoralty election of 2013, but Moscow is not Russia; an island of Westernization and (relative) affluence. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexei_Navalny#Ratings.

As blogged previously, I think that Navalny was almost certainly a braver man than me (going back from exile in Germany to almost-certain arrest in Russia), and certainly a more reckless one, inter alia.

Incidentally, I just saw this about Zhirinovsky, the supposedly “Russian nationalist” stalking horse of the early 1990s: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vladimir_Zhirinovsky#Jewish_heritage.

Various “reasons”, from the “Covid” panicdemic/scamdemic fallout to “Ukraine” (support for Zelensky’s corrupt, chaotic, and brutal dictatorship, and Israel), to the importation of millions of parasites. Overall, the shorthand terms “NWO”, “ZOG”, “WEF” and “Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan ” pretty much cover it.

Elon Musk, though he strikes me as an interesting person, is at the same time rather disappointing. Take away his untold millions and billions, and what would be left? Not much, really.

The “whys and wherefores” are not yet known, as far as I can see, but the news brought to mind the old Chekist saying, “the legs of the traitor are not as long as the arms of the Cheka” [ЧК].

Roberts is, in my view, a largely ahistorical scribbler, who has posed as a kind of pseudo-aristocratic historian all his life, always having had plenty of money thanks to his father having owned both the well-known Job’s Dairy and also the UK franchise rights for Kentucky Fried Chicken (now KFC).

He was raised to the life peerage by “Boris” Johnson in 2022. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Roberts,_Baron_Roberts_of_Belgravia.

He is and always was pro-NWO etc. An “Atlanticist”, if you like. Now he seems to be regurgitating lying Israeli government propaganda instead of pro-Churchill ahistory.

Murderous vandals and thieves.

Look at it. Listen to it. Its very voice is both ugly and brutal, even before one reads the subtitles.

  1. Hello Ian! Nalvany WAS NOT braver than you; he was just an imbecile, as he proved it when he returned to Russia. Would you walk into a lion´s enclosure? I do not think so!

    As an American friend told me “Did you notice that EVERYTIME he was arrested there was a BBC or a NY Times photographer next to him?” How convenient!

    I am not an admirer of Putin, but Nalvany was a pathetic stooge of the West and got what he deserved.

    Changing the subject, I am very sad for Julian Assange; my wife told me a long time ago “He will die in prison or commit suicide, either way, the American government will win”. I believe she was right.

I love that quote from Scott Fitzgerald; it reminds me of an equally clever one by an old friend of mine who nearly 30 years ago decided to burn part of his savings and go for a week to a very expensive resort in the Caribbean.

        Well, you have to experience such things, especially when young. I once spent a weekend at the 5-star hotel Cliveden, to the west of London. I wanted to please a lady I knew, a one-time model who once appeared on the front pages of (French) Vogue magazine, and who had already, when at school in the early 1960s, stayed there with a girl she knew from school, and whose family owned it.

        At that time it was a private house owned by the Astor family. It had been the setting for the events of high politics known as the Cliveden Set in the 1930s

        As you can see —if the photos open—, a nice place, but hugely expensive. At that time, about 1994, the house/hotel was only open to the few staying there for the whole weekend, inc. Sunday night. A couple of dozen guests. I think that it now allows others to have a drink there; not sure. For me, a very interesting weekend, but also a pretty expensive one!

  2. Ian, you are a stylish man indeed! As a dear English friend, who sadly passed away 2 years ago, would say: “You are Bondesque” I am sure the lady was favourably impressed and I hope there was a romantic affair as a consequence of your weekend.

    I read about the place last year and, even for a 5-star country hotel, it is pretty expensive. Some people who obviously are familiar with similar places said so in the comments.

      It is rather “arm and leg” expensive, or was (I expect still is). The whole of my brief fee for quite a decent (though only one day) High Court matter went up in smoke in 2 days, basically…

      As for the lady, a romance was occurring and did continue, but it was not destined to last.

      All the guests at Cliveden, or almost all, dined together on Sunday evening. Black tie. I was talking mainly to the lady of the Lord Lieutenant of Staffordshire. That is the Queen’s (now King’s) first representative in each county. Mostly about the “Beast of Bodmin”.

        I had never heard of that beast.

        The “big cats” in the UK do exist, I think. I have heard several accounts, albeit at second hand. Until 1974 or thereabouts, you could own something like a leopard or panther in the UK, no licence required. That ownership was then prohibited for public safety and animal welfare reasons. A number of large cats etc are said to have been released into the wild. I think that some survived and managed to find other animals of similar type, thus breeding a small population of big cats in the wilder parts of the country: the moors of South West England and Cornwall (which is technically England but really a former country of sorts), in Wales, in Scotland and the Borders.

        I myself, in the early 1970s, when I was about 15, was amazed to see a man walk a black panther on a leash down a suburban road on the border of Berkshire and Oxfordshire.

        Not only the Russians (pre-WW1) took instruction from German instructors. I knew someone whose much older husband was commissioned in England in 1913 (I think). He had attended Sandhurst, where his drill instructors had been German. Only a year or two before the outbreak of the First World War.

        Not so surprising, given the German links and part-origins of what is now known as the House of Windsor. As you know, the first Hanoverian kings of England spoke German as their first language, Victoria was brought-up in a Germanic milieu (her early lady companion was German too), while even Edward VII had a marked German accent.

        Incidentally, it remains a tradition at the English Royal residences to serve the sort of very high-quality German vintages that are now rather unfashionable —and little-known— in the wider UK society (I think partly because tastes have changed since pre-WW1, and partly because the best German wine costs much to produce, and is not made in huge quantities, so sells at a correspondingly high price).

      3. Many people in Britain think German wine is defined by Liebfraumich but the country produces much higher quality wine than that eg some of the best are made from the Riesling grape variety.

  3. It is probably quite sensible for some American parents to be very strict with their children. After all, in some US states an undisciplined or insufficiently disciplined child could grow-up into an adult who commits a death penalty eligible murder or who commits another crime where they could receive an ultra-long prison sentence.

    The US is not afraid of constructing large numbers of prisons and filling their capacity to the brim:

    If you are a loving parent in America you wouldn’t want your offspring to be sentenced to death and then be executed or spend decades in jail.

      I do not dislike German itself, though. I studied it for a year at school (and later took a couple of crash courses when I was in my twenties). Having said that, I am told that my (now very limited) use of German sounds a little harsh. I had a girlfriend once who said that I spoke Russian like her mother (Russian but brought-up mainly in Istanbul) spoke English— harshly.

  7. If it was sensible to establish a state for Jews then Palestine was the wrong place for it since it already had an indigenous population that inevitably was displaced and shoved aside and also because the place isn’t big enough to house the majority of the world’s Jews let alone all of them. The Zionist entity is about the size of Wales.

    The Zionist ‘project’ should have been sited in Argentina as was originally proposed or in that Jewish Oblast in Russia:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewish_Automonus_Oblast

    That place isn’t big enough either but it is twice the size of the Zionist state and might be expandable if Zionists asked that nice Mr Putin politely!

    At least there an already existing indigenous population wouldn’t be needed to be displaced and there would be no need to be an occupation which causes trouble everyday for the occupiers and occupied.

Yes, a majority of its inhabitants are supposed to be Jews but even today most Jews in the world live OUTSIDE of it (54% NOT residing there) so with that in mind how can it be called ‘the Jewish state’?

        Also, the Zionist government is guilty of TRUE ‘anti-semitism’ in that it represses Ultra-orthodox, anti-Zionist, ‘True Torah believing’ Jews in places like the Mea Shearim area of Jerusalem.

    Apparently, his ultra-Zionist stance on the conflict is, unsurprisingly, upsetting Arab-Americans and one of the states they are numerous in is the state of Michigan which was last time and will be again this November a crucial ‘swing state’ he will need to hold to be re-elected.

    Wouldn’t it be funny if this senile old duffer loses to the expected Republican nominee, Donald Trump, because of a handful of pissed-off Arab-American voters in the state of Michigan due to his 100% steadfast support of the Zionist entity whatever the crimes that country commits!
