Reaping the Whirlwind
Project Veritas: PBS Counsel Says Trump Supporters’ Children Should Be Taken, Put in ‘Re-Education Camps’: “Americans are so fucking dumb. You know, most people are dumb,” the man says. “It’s good to live in a place [like D.C.] where people are educated and know stuff. Could you imagine if you lived in one of these other towns or states where everybody’s just stupid?” [More]
This is why I say bloody ignorance is more dangerous. If this provincial dolt had a clue, he would realize why confiscating children of armed people will guarantee a response that he is not only completely unprepared for but that he can't even begin to imagine.

Can We Count on the Only Ones to 'Just Follow Orders'?
Putting the 'Barf' in Deborah Barfield Berry
To help heal racial wounds, Black national anthem would become America's hymn under proposal [More]
And if I choose to take a knee, what kind of "racial wounds" may I expect?
Nice of this overt propaganda paean to provide the lyrics... I also like the photo of the "Pro-Donald Trump rioter" -- pity the photographer couldn't snap him, you know, rioting.
Note how this is posted under "News" rather than "Opinion"? "Ethical" USA Today/Gannett doesn't think they have to hide it anymore.

Let's Be Careful Out There
The potential security threats focus on possible armed protests in Richmond on Sunday, as well as the General Assembly’s annual Lobby Day on Monday and the presidential inauguration two days later. [More]
If you plan on going to Lobby Day, the inauguration, or any of the other state capitol events, be mindful of provocateurs trying to draw you in to unplanned chaos.

UPDATE - This is what is being called a "security threat":Cutting Edge
Received via email:
I'll update this with a link if they post details today. I've heard (but can't confirm) that preemption does not apply to knives, so I have no idea if this will come with potential "patchwork quilt" traps.
Ah, never mind: Knife Rights has the complete story.
Pledge Takers
As a responsible American gun owner, I strive to enhance the public perception of gun ownership... [More]
I'm afraid that depends on the ability to counter the lies. Look for Pledge Takers to be attacked with the same "extremist" smears as Oath Keepers, and look for avenues to counter that being increasingly sealed off.
That doesn't mean we shouldn't strive to exemplify these deals for those within our spheres of influence (with qualified boundaries on that "cooperation with law enforcement officials to reduce criminal activity" part). I'm just saying that won't stop the domestic enemies from demonizing and dehumanizing us and trying to destroy and then erase us, which is where we find ourselves.
The Master Race
Who better to lead the DOJ Civil Rights division than a lunatic black supremacist? [More]
I disagree with Tucker Carlson. I hope she's approved.
We're not getting out of this mess by accepting less overtly objectionable nominees who can mask their radicalism with an air of "moderation."
That and "Squeeze"...

Purging from the Ranks
'Personnel' Seems Unacceptably Specist
In support of an inclusive campus culture, we are pleased to announce that staff may now choose to share their pronouns with their supervisors/HR representatives in their e-Personnel file. In addition, staff may select to share their pronouns with other UI systems (e.g., ITS Help Desk Tickets). [More]
At least ATF's got 'em covered, sort of...

Brute Force and Bloody Ignorance
A Dish Best Served Cold
Technofascism
Guess Whose Fault It Is
A Democratic congressman from Illinois who was forced to go into lockdown during last week’s deadly siege at the Capitol announced Tuesday he has tested positive for COVID-19. U.S. Rep. Brad Schneider has become at least the third House Democrat to announce a COVID-19 infection since the lockdown. [More]
Because we all know correlation = causation!
Who needs validatable contact tracing protocols when you can just make sh!+ up, point, and scream "GUILTY"?

Are You Ready For Total (Ideological) War? [More]

Breaking Through Old Barriers
Missouri hits record levels of gun violence in 2020 [More]
If that doesn't justify disarming you and me, nothing will!
At least we ought to see forearm violence declining soon.

Yeah, It's About Like That
[Open in new tab if too small to read]
It took me a second to grok this, as regulars know my sentiments about following "sports."
About the only thing it's missing is a "fact-checker" statement claiming conspiracy allegations are "baseless."
But since it mentions "the Crimson Tide," it won't hurt to have this playing in the background...

'Lawful Resistance'
Whether we like it or not, what matters today is the ability to impose your will upon your circumstances: in other words, the possession of force majeure in your personal context. [More]

Let's begin by taking away Apple’s iPhone oligopoly.
A friend proposes the following easy-to-do/nothing-to-lose project that will cost you five minutes and a stamp:
Tanks for the Memories
“It’s a poor choice of timing to have military equipment like that in a residential neighborhood,” resident James Woodard said. “Obviously they have more money than sense.” [More]
Obviously, someone has more estrogen than testosterone.
He'd have a hemorrhage if he lived near Len Savage.

Tit for Tat?
Citing 'censorship' concerns, North Idaho internet provider blocks Facebook, Twitter [More]
By request. Except the communists in Washington State are still not amused.
Does citing "net neutrality" sound Orwellian to anyone else? (And yes, I'm aware that applies to ISPs. Tell that to Comcast.)

Huge Inventory Clearance!
Amazon employees want right-wing militia merchandise taken down- Merchandise sporting the names and logos of the Oath Keepers and Three Percenters can be found on Amazon. [More]
Don't worry -- you can still get all the communist swag you want.
Hey, if "property is theft," what's the problem here?

Stopping the Signal
Cumulus Media, which employs some of the most popular right-leaning talk-radio hosts in the United States, has told its on-air personalities to stop suggesting that the election was stolen from President Donald Trump - or else face termination. [More]
No doubt they're terrified advertisers will be spooked into bolting.
Diminishing Returns
Over the last few weeks, I have lost literally hundreds of "friends" and "followers" on Facebook and Twitter. What I can't tell is if they deactivated their accounts on their own or had their accounts deactivated for them in "the purge."
As the only reason I even spend any time at all on those platforms is to promote my articles, I'm weighing my options. I've tried the alternatives but they never produced enough "bang for the buck" to justify the effort.
Tangentially-related UPDATE:
Looks like Parler's found a new home.

Why does the creepy chant make me think "We are many" and that there's never a herd of swine around when you really need one?
Like Rats from a Sinking Ship
Republican Sen. Pat Toomey of Pennsylvania joined GOP Sen. Lisa Murkowski of Alaska over the weekend in calling for Trump to “go away as soon as possible.” [More]
You Do the Shirkey Jerkey and You Turn Yourself Around, That's What It's All About!
Mike Shirkey's Ratings and Endorsements [More]And as we learned from the link in yesterday's post:
Senate Majority Leader Mike Shirkey, R-Clarklake, recently came out in favor of a ban on open carry of weapons.
