The Final Curtain

[More]

But he hasn't stepped down?

[Via Bluesgal, who adds: Never have local elections been more important than now.  With Senator Flake deciding not to run again it set up the perfect storm for his Senate seat at a time when he knew the other AZ Senator (McCain) would not likely live out his term.

At stake in November are two senate seats and the governor's office.  Flake's former seat is hotly contested between McSally(R) and Sinema (D).  (Yes I wanted Ward but it looks as if McSally has a lock on it)

The Governor is facing a challenge from Progressive/Democrat Garcia (Front runner)

Now that McCain has stopped treatment, depending upon when McCain steps down or passes, his replacement could be appointed after the Nov Election.  IF the Governor's seat goes D we know that a D will replace McCain.  Any "appointment" is for 2 years (Remainder of MeCain's term) which puts the Senate seat up for election again in 2020 during the Presidential race.  So if Sinema and Garcia win in November, the likelyhood is that BOTH AZ Senate seats would then be BLUE. ]

At Least No 'Front Hole' Displays--For Now

Students will now have nearly unfettered freedom to wear almost whatever they want as long as they have a top, bottom, shoes and “clothing that covers specific body parts (genitals, buttocks, and areolae/nipples) with opaque material,” according to the new policy. [More]

It's just another step down the road to classifying anyone criticizing a "Minor-Attracted Person" as a hater.

“There’s an opportunity to listen to the young people” ...

Yeah, and we see where that leads.

A Bridge Too Far

FEDS FIGHT TO KEEP RECORDS OF COLLAPSED BRIDGE SECRET [More]

Y'know,if we're going to be consistently "progressive," we need to start referring to the people demanding answers and accountability on this as "anti-government extremists."

Speaking of Enemies of the People...

Quite frankly, the CPA is a disgrace. Asking their members to write biased, slanted hit pieces on Trump and to continue the biased negative coverage is the antithesis of good journalistic ethics. It is symptomatic of where most of the press is today – partners with the progressive deep state that is destroying our once free society and replacing it with a soon-to-fail socialistic nightmare.

I've taken the liberty of designing a business card for their CEO:

It’s time to play “What does Everytown pretend is a school shooting?” again. [More]

Claimed Weapon Detector Raises Privacy, Legal and Safety Concerns

A thought I can’t shake is “Is this for real or are we all being punked?”  I agree with the 9To5Mac.com writer who said he’ll believe it when he sees it. [More]

If we're not being punked, the privacy implications are chilling.

And the Beat Goes On

Police say the woman's estranged husband came to the home and attacked the victims while wielding a crowbar. [More]

While Shannon is glad the mother and daughter weren't armed with a gun, she wishes the killer had been. She'd like to remind everyone planning such media opportunities that you can eliminate your problems and help the cause at the same time.

Death is the Price We are Willing to Pay

My first reaction was to say "So you won't be needing change," but then remembered he's not talking about his death. [More]

Anybody still think this is unfounded?

It seems partially consistent with ARTICLE I, SECTION 8, CLAUSE 16, but why just teachers?

Hell, just getting out of the way of those choosing to exercise their rights would be an improvement.

Stare Indecisis

District and Circuit court judges are supposed to follow Supreme Court precedent... [More]

Where does it say that? What if previous decisions flew in the face of "shall not be infringed"?

So "precedent" can never be altered? Or does that depend on whose agenda takes ... uh ... precedence?

And what's wrong with asking relevant questions in a job interview?

We're the Only Ones Alleged Enough

“They assigned a Deputy to investigate the allegation and within an hour, that Deputy was also implicated in the allegation,” the sheriff’s office said. [More]
