No Argument from Me

 In Exclusive Interview, Trump Calls Sept. 18 Rally A ‘Setup,’ Says GOP Senate Should Fire ‘Disaster’ McConnell [More]

When he's right he's right.

A Partial Thought

 A gun advocacy group announced that it won a partial victory in a lawsuit filed over delays in firearm permit applications. [More]

What are these "permits" of which they speak...?

Singin' in the Stain

 

Activist accuses Trudeau of using gang shootings for political gain [More]

Justin blood dancing...? Oh, go on...

[Via Jess]

How Complete is the Conversion?

I agree -- it's one of the better ones. Let's hope none of the testimonial-givers will still vote Democrat because that's what will ultimately be the decider of if the effort is worth the money.

Not Yet But Soon...?

 Is it any wonder the 81 percent of us who want universal background checks and the two-thirds of us who want assault weapons banned are at the end of our rope? [More]

Not yet, useful idiot, but let that monopoly of violence you're shilling for take over and decide you're no longer needed...

All the Ammo They Need

 Mark Milley Finally Gives His Denial but Ends up Telling on Himself [More]

Absent from all this is what he actually said, meaning he's given the Chicoms leverage over him if they threaten to release their recordings.

UPDATE:
Laura Ingraham exposes 'General Milley's insurrection' [Watch]
I love the dishonorable discharge angle-- turn him into the "prohibited person."

A Public/Private Partnership

 Facebook drops hammer on song critical of Biden, ‘Blood on my hands’ [More]

Who needs government censorship when the same interests also control the media?

Double-Plus-Ungood

 LA Times: Our recall system needs to be fixed so Republicans can't win [More]

They can't in California anyway.

[Via Michael G]

We're the Only Ones Degreed Enough

 The Third Degree Murder conviction of Chauvin now is legally deficient and must be vacated. Chauvin’s Second Degree Murder conviction is on appeal, and if that were reversed on legal grounds, the only conviction remaining would be Second Degree Manslaughter. [More]

Reminds me of a Marx Brothers routine...

They Blow Up So Fast These Days

 VIDEO: Palestinian Terrorist Accidentally Ignites Himself While Throwing Molotov Cocktail [More]

I can't help but wonder how many sympathetic "refugees" make it through our "rigorous" entrance requirements...

Getting to the Essence

 Bush got up on the 9/11 anniversary and proceeded to demonstrate, again, the essentiality of class in American society. Not “class” in the sense that he is classy; Bush, though it was very important to him to front that he has such class, in fact, has none. No, the “class” that is important to W is social class. He once again chose his country club pals over you and compounded it by issuing a disgusting blood libel against you. That’s his “thank you” for the thankless job of defending his worthless rear-end we did for all those years back when he was too gentlemanly to do it himself. [More]

I used fewer words.

It all boils down to one.

And a Little Child Shall Lead Them

“The idea of just sitting quiet and being told stuff and taking things in in a passive stance, is not a thing that’s in many cultures,” Thompson claimed. “So if we’re positively enforcing these behaviors, we are by extension positively enforcing elements of white culture,” he claimed with a smug smile. [More]

I invite him to go be disruptive and smug at a Boko Haram jihadist training camp for child captives and report back to us on how they take it. And make sure to bring that rainbow flag.

These juvenile mind-f*** freaks don't actually have to know anything, do they? Subjecting children to their influence is a form of psychological abuse that can have permanent effects, especially on the weaker-minded.

Make Minneapolis Somalia Again

 Ilhan Omar slams judge for blocking ballot measure to scrap Minneapolis Police Department [More]

Why not go full inclusion and tolerance?

Boy, America sure does suck.

How does taking foreign subversive ingrates in help "secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity" again...?

Community Sharing

 Parent finds gun and ammo inside south St. Louis book box [More]

Uh-oh, another "loophole"...

The idiot dispatcher who told him to bring it in is simply doing what every single police-sponsored "buy back" does-- incentivizing people with no known capability of safe gun handling to pick up, carry, transport, and turn over a firearm whether they know the basic rules and how to clear a chamber or not.

"Commonsense gun safety" my ... eye.

Let the Punishment Fit the Crime?

 Three former U.S. intelligence and military operatives have admitted providing sophisticated computer hacking technology to the United Arab Emirates and agreed to pay nearly $1.7 million to resolve criminal charges in an agreement that the Justice Department described Tuesday as the first of its kind. [More]

And to think what happened to poor Major André for carrying a note in his boot...

[Via bondmen]

Generally Speaking

 A modest proposal: Fire all of the post 9/11 generals [More]

I'm wondering if a more dynamic response isn't warranted for some of the ones at the very top.

Just promise not to replace them with colonels who wear pregnancy empathy bellies or order cadets to wear high heels?

[Via bondmen]

UPDATE:

How about we promote this guy?

Apples and Oranges

 Reminder to all Arkansas GOPers who are going full demagogue over Biden's vaccine mandate. Not one of you raised objections when Ark Dept of Health mandated vaccines @UArkansas  in 2019-2020 & promised to fire those who did not comply. [More]

How many logical fallacies can you find in this "comparison"?

UPDATE: Here are a few.

[Via Mack H]

We're the Only Ones Off the Cuff Enough

 Motorists legally carrying firearms should not be handcuffed during a traffic stop merely because they presented their concealed carry permit. US District Judge Janet Bond Arterton last month found Waterbury, Connecticut, police Officer Nicholas A. Andrzejewski violated the rights of Basel M. Soukaneh by handcuffing him and holding him in custody merely because he presented his permit on the side of the road.  [More]

Well, that explains why they don't much like armed citizens and go to ridiculous measures to show it per directed-from-the-top policy.

Speaking of which, is the feral oinker still employed and being allowed to terrorize the public?

[Via Jess]

Lies of Omission

 Media Give Zero Seconds to Antifa’s Domestic Terror Plot [More]

We touched on it yesterday.

Hey, they've got a narrative to push and this just doesn't fit into the plans.

[Via George K]

Sins of the Fathers

 Biden’s ancestors were slave owners, genealogist finds [More]

But all our trusted fact-checkers denied it, at least until after the election...

Anyone rational, of course, knows this is irrelevant except to reparations scammers and "progressive" racists. What's valid is pointing out the hypocritical inconsistency in their phony, self-serving outrage.

[Via Remarks]

The All-Seeing Eye

 GOSAR INTRODUCES RESOLUTION REQUIRING BODY CAMERAS BE WORN BY HOUSE LEADERSHIP [More]

Obviously, he's making a point.

I'm sure there are plenty who would like to require that WE wear them.

[Via Henry Bowman]

Pick an Agency, Any Agency...

 The growing federal bureaucracy is a vehicle for cultural revolution, not a distraction from it. [More]

I never knew a thinking person who believed otherwise.

And not just the feds. Big oppressors start out small.

[Via Mack H]

Vichycons

 "The role of the Vichycons in all this is, first, to ineffectively oppose, or pretend to oppose, the fundamental transformation. Then, once they have fulfilled their duties as gracious loser, they shift to their second: enforcement of the new Leftist norm." [More]

This piece is a couple years old but it's one of the most insightful analyses I have read of what's going on, particularly as it relates to "mass shootings," immigration/invasion, and Republican squish backstabbing.

I'm surprised the term "Vichycon" has not seen wider use and hope to do what I can to help change that going forward.

Tangentially-Related Updates:

Did Someone Blink?

I just went to National Archive site, and the woke “warning” has apparently been taken down. [More]

Apparently

But the "Statement" is still there, waiting to be applied again in new ways.

I wonder who ordered what and why.

UPDATE: Off again/on again...

The Table of Damascus

 Pfizer says data suggests COVID vaccine boosters are warranted ...  International public health experts — including two FDA vaccine leaders who are leaving the agency this year — wrote a new paper ... that booster doses are not necessary for the general public right now ...  [More]

Meanwhile, the WHO position is one of "global equity" and Biden says Team America can do it all.

As soon as we're done squabbling over politics, we'll tell you what the "settled science" is.

Meanwhile, over in the "undeveloped" world...
