Speaking to reporters as the votes were being counted down the hall, Pelosi said it was "so inspiring to hear my colleagues place my name in nomination once again for Speaker of the House." [More]Right. I'm sure no quid pro quo, bribes, arm-twisting, threats and blackmail played any part in the unbridled enthusiasm, because high-stakes power politics is just so clean and pure.

An Inspiration to Us All
She Said a Mouthful
Stormy Daniels: Michael Avenatti Sued Trump For Defamation Against My Wishes - The porn star also says her lawyer refused to give her information about how her crowdfunding money was being spent, and launched a second crowdfund without her knowledge. [More]Jeez, it's like she never had a guy screw her before.
Running on Empty
Money, resources running out for Tijuana migrant shelter [More]Gee, that's really too bad.
How much has Alyssa raised so far?
It would probably be cheapest to use the remaining money to bus them all back to the southern border.
A Panel of 'Experts'
Jeff Goldblum, Sting, Bill Nye Among the Celebs Joining Al Gore for ‘Climate Crisis’ Event [More]Not a scientist in the bunch.
Voice of Experience
Obama: America Has a ‘Great Smugness’... [More]He would know. And it figures the "former" Opposite Day "Progressive"-in-Chief would attack wealth and status.
Big Brother was an Amateur
Google Reveals Plans to Monitor Our Moods, Our Movements, and Our Children's Behavior at Home [More]But just think of all the conveniences...
No Argument from Me
Trump shares image calling for his opponents to face trials for ‘treason’ [More]I'm glad to see he comprehends the battle is existential.
Your Tax Dollars at Work
TAXPAYERS FUND SMITHSONIAN'S ATTACK ON 2ND AMENDMENT [More]I'd say "Pull a CDC on 'em," but good luck with a new Democrat House majority and panicked Republicans looking to "compromise."
[Via Mack H]
Yet Another in a Long List of Gun-Grabbing Political Criminals
Ex-Pa. Attorney General Kathleen Kane to be jailed by Thursday morning [More]This one. Not this one -- although I expect opportunities for "progressive" encounters will abound.
Have fun being a "prohibited person."
"Special protection" for someone who worked to render her countrymen defenseless, eh?
[Via Mack H]
Xenophobes, Racists and Haters, Oh My!
SAID IN SPANISH: Baja California Governor Wants Caravanners Deported! Hondurans And Salvadorans Don’t Trust Each Other!! [More]Yes, I'm sure all those differences will be ironed out once we let them in and meet all their demands.
DYN-O-MITE!
He sounds like my kind of guy, which probably explains why you don't see him that much these days.
[Via Tristan M]
We are Controlling Transmission
Questions for candidates on key issue # 7: Public health threats from uncontrolled migration [More]As WarOnGuns Correspondent Michael G notes:
And as a personal observation, note the broad overlap between those supporting no borders and those wanting to end vaccinations. Go team pandemic!Funny how they then turn around and fall for the "public health model" on guns.
Unequal Results
Roesholt managed to shoot the bear, killing it. He then went to the cabin, where he found the bodies of his partner and child outside. [More]Curious, how self-styled "egalitarians" embrace the one thing that catastrophically failed and reject the one thing that proved to equalize the outcome...
Would You Like Flies with That?
Poo found on every McDonald’s touchscreen tested [More]True, this is in Piers Morgan Paradise. Who thinks the Democrat constituency here isn't also pushing more than mimimum wage?
And yeah, I know those are customer touchscreens. Any bets on those behind the counter?
Giving a Puck
"Faculty trained to use hockey pucks to thwart shooters..." [More]I'll let this Goodfellow handle the response.
None So Blind
Police, elected officials and community members came together Tuesday night looking for answers after a triple shooting in West Philadelphia injured two teens and an 8-year-old boy. [More]The answers are right in front of them, but, like Col. Jessep said, they can't handle the truth, and like Mr. Pynchon observed, it all depends on the questions.
You sure won't find them from "safe space" incompetents like State Representative Joanna McClinton. Still, she unintentionally stumbles on a point about keeping invaders out with man-made barriers...
Can She Swing? Listen Bud...
...then she'll drag your name through the mud... [More]
Looked at in a different light, #MeToo also applies to concepts, hence Supergirl and Batwoman, etc. Opposite Day "progressivism" has no new ideas, just recycled old ones.
When I was a cub, such transitioned characters were created to capture a "girl's" market. I believe it's another reason why superheroes often had boy sidekicks, to have avatars we could identify and vicariously share adventures with.
Nowadays, as the supplemental links show, there's another agenda entirely.
We'll see how much of the movie-going public embraces that agenda enough to register at the box office. Maybe I'm wrong, but I'd lay odds on another Ghostbusterettes.
