This abuse of executive power may be just the thing to provoke that reminder. [More]

A Bridge Too Far
Stupid Celebrity Tricks
Grimes' Met Gala Sword Was Made From an AR-15 Assault Rifle [More]
Who or whatever...
Did you know that in New York City: "It shall be unlawful for any person to carry on his or her person or have in such person’s possession, in any public place, street, or park any knife which has a blade length of four inches or more"?
You have to wonder what would have happened had a non-privileged POC carried a sword into the event.

Authorized Subsidized Journalists
House Dems Propose $1 Billion in Subsidies for Local Newspapers - Lawmakers hope tax credits will revive industry as trust in media plummets [More]
I can't think of anything that would make me trust their political objectivity more than depending on Democrats for handouts.
And sorry, "conservative" outlets -- our "independent fact-checkers" say you people are a bunch of fake news Nazis so you're not eligible -- which is the excuse we'll use to do an end-run around accusations of First Amendment-violating censorship.

We're the Only Ones Incurious Enough
Just in time for the Senate hearing? The FBI FINALLY fired an agent for failing to properly investigate Larry Nassar [More]
Wait-- you can fire them for not "pursuing tips"...?

Doing Shots
Shocking shoot-out video leads to liquor license suspension of business [More]
That's some pretty heavily-armed security owner Dana Kelly employs.
And she's a Democrat running for mayor?
May we assume she's a "Gun Sense Candidate"?

We're the Only Ones Gangsta Enough
At least four “secret cliques or gangs” of sheriff’s deputies — with names like the Banditos and the Executioners — continue to operate and recruit within the L.A. County Sheriff’s Department, despite recent reforms intended to ban them. [More]
Well, yeah. The departments have got Oath Keepers to purge.

Speaking of Spiritual Wickedness in High Places...
Chief Logan pointed to similar apologies from other Christian denominations in Canada, “The Anglican Church has apologized. The Presbyterian Church has apologized. United Church has apologized,” he said. He also referred to a Truth and Reconciliation Committee finding of the Canadian Parliament in 2015 which called upon Pope Francis to offer such an apology. [More]
Why does that make me think of "Faiths United"?

Big Brother is Watching You
Billed as the most secure phone on the planet, An0m became a viral sensation in the underworld. There was just one problem for anyone using it for criminal means: it was run by the police [More]
You gotta wonder how many people "in power" are kept in check by blackmail.

None Dare Call It Treason
Biden Hires International Migration Group to Help Bring Expelled Illegal Aliens Back to U.S. [More]
The embedded domestic enemies intend to do as much lasting damage as possible for as long as they can get away with it.
Good thing this has nothing to do with that "single issue"!

Cut and Run
At least 8 wounded in stabbing spree in downtown Colorado Springs [More]
It's not like the politicians who presume to be "in charge" haven't had years to address the problems.
Don't worry-- they're working furiously to make sure you're defenseless.

Had ENUF?
“The spread of untraceable `ghost guns’ is fueling gun violence in our city and today’s vote will help keep firearms out of the hands of people who pose danger to our communities — including violent criminals, domestic abusers, individuals suffering from mental illness and terrorists,” von Wilpert said. [More]
It will never be enough -- when that doesn't work, she'll be back demanding more. Giving political power to someone this childish, stupid, and blatantly opportunistic doesn't strike everyone capable of thinking as insane?

C'mon, Who Didn't See This Coming?
Gavin Newsom wins in landslide... [More]
That's pretty much what I've been saying all along...
No doubt about it, Larry Elder is the (infinitely) better man with better policies, but you have to pick your battles, and going out there and getting very publicly stomped doesn't help him or his cause.
Thoroughly Modern Milley
This is a coup. This is treason. And there must be a court martial and martial justice. [More]
That's pretty much what I said.
UPDATE: Richard Grenell says not so fast...
Gosh, if we can't believe Bob Woodward and The Washington Post, who can we believe?

South of the Border, Down Mexico Way...
If the gunmen in the video are in fact active members of the UNOPES, it may be the most visually damning evidence of state corruption since President Andrés Manuel López Obrador took office in December 2018. [More]
Jeez, it's like these people have never heard of Los Zetas or anything.
Good thing they, with the help of the Bradys, are going to sue American gun manufacturers!

Confidence Man
“Building trust and confidence between law enforcement and the public we serve is central to our mission at the Justice Department,” said Attorney General Merrick Garland. [More]
And what better way to do that than by making concessions to bLM while turning up the heat on that "biggest terror threat"?

Forever Youngkin
Governor: To date, no candidates for this office have returned the VCDL survey. There are no endorsements for this office at this time. [More]
Keep stokin' that fire in the belly, Glenn!

Right on Schedule
Here comes the low-hanging fruit to give the Democrats the headlines they need to further the meme! [Watch]
I wonder how many other moron losers like this they're attracting to conflate with us.
This weekend...?

'Because Evil Can Never Be Dead Enough'
...HarrisParis Wilder was a career criminal with 40 previous arrests... [Watch]
Where was the custodian?
I'm surprised the sheriff made that admission, though, and wonder if it will be used against him with judge/jury/executioner accusations by the race-baiters. The legalities are why it's more prudent to say "shoot to STOP."

To Ourselves and Our Posterity
The Democrats’ proposed amnesty for migrants creates a hidden pipeline for U.S. employers to flood more cheap foreign graduates into millions of middle-class careers needed by American graduates. [More]
Even Starbucks won't need you, "progressive" white kids!
But say "replacement" at your peril.
Good thing this has nothing to do with that "single issue"!

UTSA drops 'Come and Take It' tradition after petition raises concerns over slogan's racist history [More]
They came and took it.

Lookin' Like a FOOL With Your Pants on the Ground
Balenciaga’s very pricey sweatpant/boxer combo — $1,190 retail — is just that: It features what look like boxers “peeking out from the [sweats’] waistband,” according to CNN Style. It’s a popular look, particularly among young black men. [More]

Hometown Scandal
“It has come to my attention that your educators are distributing essentially what is child pornography in the classroom. I've spoken to a judge this evening. She's already confirmed that. So I'm going to give you a simple choice. You either choose to resign from this Board of Education or you will be charged,” said Shubert. [More]
This town has done nothing but thrown money at its schools and administrators and "educators" have paid it back by indoctrinating young minds and going after those who resist it.
Nice to see people waking up. I've got to get some popcorn.
Now They've Gone and Done It
Chinese State Media Slams Soros As "The Most Evil Person In The World" And "The Son Of Satan" [More]
What do they know that "our" media doesn't?
I wonder if the same "progressives" who say criticism of Soros is antisemitic poison will try to "cancel" them?
Nothin' on ADL's Twitter feed...
