Today's 'Daily Defense

 

Listen live.

Think of It as Incrementally Ending White Privilege

 REVEALED: Anti-White, Pro-BLM Social Media Posts Of Black Woman Charged In White Child’s Death After Jan 6 Capitol Protest [More]

And the child was adopted? So much for "background checks" guaranteeing anything.

Cruise Control

Cruise line says only vaccinated passengers can sail [More]

If you won't do it for yourself, think of the pirates.

Capture the Flag

Leftwing Activist Journalists Claim the Gadsden Flag Is a Sign of Insurrection and Hate [More]

They sure are selective...

[Via Mack H]

The Enemy Within

 For Conservatives, Our Republican “Allies” Are Far More Dangerous Than Our Leftist Enemies [More]

That's because the enemy inside the gates is capable of inflicting far more damage, and make no mistake: They are the enemy.

A Snowballs' Chance

 A dozen Senate Republicans are trying to block one of progressives’ fondest goals — packing the US Supreme Court with liberal justices — with a new amendment to the Constitution. [More]

Sure makes it look like they're doing something, doesn't it?

[Via Jess]

Plenty More Damage to be Done

 The Lincoln Project co-founder Rick Wilson said that now that former President Trump is out of office, he intends to turn the super PAC's attention to Sen. Ted Cruz... [More]

You gotta wonder why he had no comment...

Vag of Honor

Cindy McCain says Arizona GOP censure is ‘a badge of honor’ [More]

And who knows more about honor than a homewrecker, a continued adulteress, and a drug abuser who stole from her own charity?

A Great Future in Politics

 Tulane students issue COVID-19 demands...but they have nothing to do with COVID-19 - A student group at Tulane University is demanding that the school provide a $15 minimum wage, offer reparations, defund police, and more, all in response to COVID-19. [More]

The implications of the word "demand" remind me of a supposed Stalin quote for a reply.

Block Biden

 
HOW WE CAN STOP BIDEN’S GUN CONTROL ... It is imperative that you contact your Senators using the form above and urge them to STAND FOR THE FILIBUSTER! [More]

We talked briefly about the concept here and embedded the original detailed Manchin/Tester plan here.

ULLA SELLA 'n all that...

In terms of this new outreach, I went ahead and did it but fully expect Sherrod Brown to act like the Democrat he is, and Rob Portman to act like Rob Portman. If you live in a solid "blue" state I don't know what to tell you except to follow the original plan.

Who Will Audit the Auditors

 However, the Board of Supervisors is now attempting to prevent a “real” audit from “the likes of Jovan Hutton Pulitzer and instead have their choice of auditor” to perform it, TGP notes. [More]

Nobody thinks they would have gotten the "All Clear" if there wasn't a plan in place...?

[Via Jess]

Whether Permitting

 States Eye Allowing Concealed Carry of Guns Without a Permit [More]

I can't help but notice the ones screaming against it the loudest are also against permitted carry.

[Via bondmen]

Idiocracy

Biden Proves Democrat Voters Have no Idea What They’re Voting For [More]

Unfortunately, neither do plenty of Republicans and gun owners. Otherwise, we wouldn't be in this mess.

[Via bondmen]

Wipe Out

"Toilet Paper Effect": Americans Scramble For Ammo Amid Shortage [More]

Some would like to give us plenty for free.

[Via bondmen]

The Quality of Mercy


 St. Louis County Prosecuting Attorney Wesley Bell supports commuting all 49 people on death row [More]

Something tells me more lessons in custodianship will follow all the "rehabilitation and restoration" being planned...

[Via bondmen]

Speaking of Dying in Darkness...

Washington Post ends ‘fact-check program’ for Trump, has ‘no plans’ to launch one for Biden [More]

Their function now is to parrot and amplify.

Recognising Foreign Influence

 For those departing or entering US government service in this transition period, beware new approaches via social media. Foreign spies often use fake social media profiles to connect to those with info they want. Before linking with someone you don’t know, understand the risks. [More]

WarOnGuns Correspondent TM wonders why a U.S. intelligence agency warning us to be on guard against foreign influence would use British spelling for "organisation" and "realise" in the slides at the end.

I note who else spells like that and wonder if they're outsourcing security...

An Apportion Provider

 Oops – Biden Census Executive Order On Counting Illegal Aliens May Hand Texas GOP Multiple House Seats [More]

Before uncorking the champagne and laughing at the idiot, what will putting them on the "pathway to citizenship" do, and what will this do to the rest of the country?

Good thing this has nothing to do with that "single issue."

[Via Michael G]

The World is Not Enough

 Socialist students 'disrupt’ campus...even after school bows to their demands- Columbia University recently bowed to the Young Democratic Socialists of America’s demands for increased financial aid. Nevertheless, students hosted a rally and a sit-in to "disrupt" campus. [More]

Of course, partial capitulation is not enough: That's why we call 'em "totalitarians." Imagine a "circling pack of jackals" and how likely they'd be to disperse if you threw them a scrap of flesh, as opposed to becoming emboldened sensing weakness and fear, and moving in closer.

Who thinks these are just DSA "solidarity songs"?

Poor, underprivileged Columbia students...

[Via Michael G]

An Isolated Incident

 Fenix Ammunition No Longer Selling To Police After Mask Enforcement [Watch]

The real question is how many won't follow the examples set by Hornady and Barrett, and what are gun owners prepared to do about those who value unquestioning confiscation enforcers more than those they target?

My guess is not enough to make any difference at all.

[Via Jess]

Frying Pan, Meet Fire

Florida Sen. Marco Rubio coy on possible challenge from Ivanka Trump [More]

We have the devil we know.

Convince me Mrs. Kushner won't be just as bad if not worse.

Is there no one in all of Florida capable of running who is not from the insulated elite?

[Via Jess]


For Other Purposes

To expand Americans' access to the ballot box, reduce the influence of big money in politics, and strengthen ethics rules for public servants, and for other purposes. [More]

I wonder what those could be...?

Cut to the chase?

(4) The Supreme Court’s 2013 Shelby County v. Holder decision gutted decades-long Federal protections for communities of color that face historic and continuing discrimination, emboldening States and local jurisdictions to pass voter suppression laws and implement procedures, such as those requiring photo identification, limiting early voting hours, eliminating same-day registration, purging voters from the rolls, and reducing the number of polling places. Congress is committed to reversing the devastating impact of this decision.

Besides, a "sworn statement" should be more than enough verification. Just look at the oaths our politicians have taken!

Also, Michael G sends this summary:

Democrats introduce their first bill in the House: H.R.1 - The bill that will destroy America. Nationwide mail-in voting, banning restrictions on ballot harvesting, banning voter ID, criminal voters,DC Statehood roadwork, it's all in here.

An Open and Shut Case

So COVID "baselined" in April?  [Watch]

This is evidently what that conclusion is derived from.

Somebody besides me is going to have to figure out what this means in terms of "shut down" policies and break it down for those of us without the background qualifications to have truly informed opinions. All I know for sure is my default isn't trust when it comes to what politicians and the DSM want me to believe.

[Via DvD]

And not to put too fine a point on things but...
Twenty-three people died in Norway within days of receiving their first dose of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine, with 13 of those deaths — all nursing home patients — apparently related to the side effects of the shots, health officials said.

I Must Not Have Read the 'Except for Prior Restraints and Gun Bans' Addendum

 Likewise, the proposed gun rights amendment is not just a state version of the U.S. Constitution’s Second Amendment (which many states have). It is a more extreme gun rights amendment, an outlier that only three other states have adopted. It would apply “strict scrutiny” to “any and all restrictions” on gun rights. If passed, this amendment would threaten to invalidate many sensible laws, from existing laws like the law prohibiting felons from having guns to modest proposals like background checks and red-flag laws. States that have adopted “strict scrutiny” language have seen costly legal battles to preserve common-sense gun laws, and some prosecutors have declined to enforce them. [More]

More "extreme" than "shall not be infringed"...?

Who does she think she is? 

"Conservative" Hugh Hewitt?

The Eye of the Beholder

 “This guy is in the middle of a government meeting brandishing a weapon,” MacIntosh told the paper. “Why would I not think they were trying to harm me?” [More]

Anybody see "brandishing"? Because what I saw was ridiculing a hoplophobe.

That said, you need to know which hat to wear, and when...

[Via Jess]

A Trillion Here, a Trillion There, Pretty Soon You're Talking Real Money

 

Quick: Somebody condemn and purge this guy as "right-wing extremist" and a "racist"!



Why They Oppose It

 We are concerned that a new federal domestic terrorism statute or list would adversely impact civil rights and — as our nation’s long and disturbing history of targeting Black Activists, Muslims, Arabs, and movements for social and racial justice has shown — this new authority could be used to expand racial profiling or be wielded to surveil and investigate communities of color and political opponents in the name of national security.  [More]

So it's not really about "liberty and justice for all," is it?

Now if there were only some way to make it so it only applied to White Christians...

It's Her Party and She'll Lie if She Wants To

Murkowski: No, I'm Not Switching Parties [More]

The question I have is why do Alaskan Republicans keep giving her the choice?

[Via DvD]

We Use Cookies to Improve Your Experience On Site

 Biden Apologizes After Guardsmen Sleep in Garage ...First lady Jill Biden tried to smooth things over with chocolate chip cookies for the troops...  [More]

Did they offer to put 'em up like Trump did?

Speaking of which, how's this for a standard of proof before leveling accusations?

Where do you see that she doesn't [insert whatever made-up allegation that comes to mind here]?

World Affairs Brief

It has been a long battle trying to convince subscribers and Trump supporters that all the stories of false hope spread by “insiders” like Q about Trump staying in office after the theft of the election were bogus. In reality, Q was only a small part of the plot to lead Trump supporters astray with false hope. [More]

We have a saying around these parts...

Anyway, looks like some good stuff over at Skousen's. You can subscribe to his newsletter and get more.

What is It That Matters, Again?

Biden Vows to Undo President Trump’s Pro-Life Policies [More]

It's telling, that they use a photo of a black child and that blacks overwhelmingly vote for the destroyers of their race's future... 

It's curious, how many "racists" are against that...

The Fox So Cunning and Free


Unless you want to see a federal prison from the inside, you'll follow the laws scrupulously, and you're Johhny StraightArrow, as far as everyone in your effing life knows, or that anyone, anywhere, can ever prove. [More]

There's a lot to be said for the Gray Man.

Sgt. Garcia! Join me for some wine?


I Know You are But What Am I?

 "I think it's become clear she is a menace to our country," said McCarron, the president of Colorado Ceasefire. [More]

Says the useful idiot fanatically subverting what the Founders knew to be "necessary to the security of a free State"...

Thought for the Day

 Remember how Holder's DOJ coordinated Fast and Furious "reports" with Media Matters? [More]

That was uncovered by The Daily Caller's Matthew Boyle via his Freedom of Information Act inquiries.

I wonder which agency is most likely to have colluded with tech and social media "deplatformers" to censor suggested targets on behalf of the government, that is, who should a FOIA request be sent to...?

The Reality of Our Streets

 

Any questions you might not see answered in DSM accounts of this story? Assuming you can find any?
