What Happens in Vegas Stays in Vegas

  A court on Wednesday approved a total of $800 million in payouts from casino company MGM Resorts International and its insurers to more than 4,400 relatives and victims of the Las Vegas Strip shooting that was the deadliest in recent U.S. history. The action makes final a deal announced earlier this month and settles dozens of lawsuits... [More]

Dare I suggest it is a bargain settlement to keep a lid on what they don't want coming out that has been completely overshadowed by "bump stocks"? And no, I'm just going to have to stay cryptic on this.

Missing the Point

You don't have to BE a racist. You just have to be ACCUSED of being a racist.

I thought everybody understood that.

Time for the skinfolk enforcers to destroy this heretic.

Well, There's a Surprise

 The Lincoln Project Attacks Barrett Nomination - Republicans Voters Against Trump oppose a conservative justice.[More]

This is my shocked face.

I really do have more contempt for them than I do for Democrats. If this is what the Republican Party devolves into, it will be dead, and not just to me.

I'm thinking that's always been the unstated plan.

Red Herring

 The President is blatantly urging his supporters to congregate at polling places, go inside, and ostensibly harass and intimidate voters. [More]

Oh, look, a new talking point!

Citizens have the right to watch for irregularities while they are there and report them to poll workers. I can't speak for all states, but here in Ohio:

Persons Checking the Official Precinct Voter Registration List - Any person may enter the polling location for the sole purpose of checking and taking notes from the Official Precinct Voter Registration List that is posted at 6:30 a.m. and updated at 11:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. Such persons may not wear any campaigning clothes or accessories and may not interfere with or disrupt the election.

I recall doing the same thing in CA when I was working on a pal's campaign for state assembly. In that way, we were able to ID delinquents and light a fire under them to get them to the polls.

Herring just invited angry confrontation with everyone who is doing that.

The Job of 'Savior' Has Already been Filled

Where Is The Right's "George Soros"? [More]

I don't believe one exists because I don't think it is possible to rise to that level of financial power without being an economic fascist. Besides, if one did it would just give more an excuse to do less and we have enough do-nothing welfare parasites posing as advocates.

"I Need a Hero" is a song for girls who then get fat and complain about "toxic masculinity."

Forgive Us Our Trespasses

What incentive would they have to do so, seeing as how the McCloskey defense would then be able to point to criminal conduct convictions?

Make no mistake-- this is in-your-face tyranny.

We're the Only Ones 'til Death Do Us Part' Enough

Yes, breaking up is still hard to do, but the professionals make it look easy.

I don't suppose these robed traitors central planner masters are interested in opening that Tenth Amendment door all the way up...?

The Bradys are behind this  -- just like the Giffords are behind the feint aimed at universal registration. 

Bottom line: Court appointments hinge on what happens in November.

We're the Only Ones Unsettling Enough

 "Family of man slain by Prince George’s police officer reaches $20 million settlement with county" ... Alsobrooks said the $20 million will come from the county’s budget and had to be first approved by the county’s budget director. [More]

That's Debatable

 I listened to last night's debate on the car radio because I had to pick the Mrs. up from the airport. I heard a lot of lost opportunities, but then again, hindsight is what it is.

I noted a singular absence of the "single issue" from that back and forth, and seeing as how so many millions will be voting based on the right to keep and bear arms, I fully expect it will come up in a future verbal cage match. As such, I want to get this advice to the president in now (and since he will most likely never see anything I write, I hope those who have his ear (do these guys, really?) tell him something similar and that he listens):

Don't compromise. Don't accede that "red flags" are something we should look at. Don't cite bump stocks as an achievement.

Don't take fire out of bellies.

Somebody's prepping for his entry into national politics. And he doesn't need to worry if some defenseless-by-mandate fans pay the ultimate price for his ambition-- he's got plenty more where they came from.
